The Rise of Mobile Gambling Is Leaving People Ruined and Unable to Quit

[Pierre 2]

When I first experienced how addictive internet is, my mind was blown. Over time it became even far more addictive with many gaming options. I think smartphones enable this so hard. When you have computer you need to leave it to move. But smartphones are always with us. It definitely makes online gambling businesses far more profitable. Although gambling addiction can hit vulnerable people so hard. There must be "quit" mechanism.

Doesn't this mechanism exist now? Self control. We can blame progress for anything, but in the end, we make the decisions ourselves. We ourselves send money to the casino account and risk it ourselves (realizing that we can lose it). To stop doing it, you just need to stop doing it and not wait for some mechanism to be invented to stop doing it, hehe. Unfortunately, many players come to the point that the most effective mechanism works - they run out of money.

I agree it's the Internet together with smartphones that offers so many opportunities which can lead to afflictions down the road. Our cell phone gives us  the opportunity to be online wherever we are, there is no real escaping. In times of lockdowns the tablet and desktop where also very easy to access, but our phone we tend to move around with us anywhere. It's not only gambling which leads to addictions, but also mobile gaming or even social media. I noticed it with my cousin, she is constantly checking Facebook, Instagram and 2-3 more apps. There is no chance of having a conversation with her without she looking at her phone. I think the overall problem is the cell phone and not gambling itself. We need to have restrictions on ourselves to limit our use of Apps and the Internet. One good thing I try to do is no electronic devices in the bedroom. I try to avoid my phone and my laptop on bed. It helps me to fall asleep and is also good for the eyes.

Make sense, if you don't have any devices near you there's no disturbance that may take place while you are sleeping though for sure in most time, those addicted people not just to gambling but far more with internet access they can't resist not to use their mobile devices to access the internet and check latest news and updates.

Gambling business understand the growing technology, so adopting to these changes will bring a good edge to their business and look how
big this industry now.

It will all be depends now on how you conceptualize your limitations and how will you adjust to avoid being engaged that much
with any gambling related online.

I think it is felt by many people, especially those new to the internet. They can discover many things they do not know, increasing their knowledge. Especially now, having a smartphone has become a necessity for most people, especially those busy working outside the home without carrying a laptop. This is also experienced by gamers who use their smartphones to play games and make them addicted. I think this also happens in the gambling business, where some people play gambling using their smartphones and this allows them to play anywhere.

Responsibilities will make you think twice and that's likely a quit mechanism to me if you really care for your family or even for yourself, addiction is far more dangerous than we can probably think of.

Unfortunately, many players come to the point that the most effective mechanism works - they run out of money.

For some it is, but to those who want to stay addicted will always find a way to do what they like to do unless those who around him/her starts to notice and put them on a rehab.

It could be amended and adjusted being addicted with his mobile phone is another bigger problems as a gambler.

Online gambling is one of the new ways to gamble and it is very easy because of the ease to do it but it is more tempting that you could empty your account before you know it. The emotion is always rising and you want to keep betting to regain your loses. I was gambling online through the phone and I realize this was really more tempting to play more than offline. You can find yourself playing unnecessary gambling because you have your apps ready to play always, this is difficult to control more than of line.

It's a self determination, you can decide either to be gambling with your mobile app. Is true though but whenever a man is chasing loses always ends up losing more money at this point as a mobile app gambler you can decide to bet any game which you quickly predicted without knowing that you are emptying your pockets.

Lastly I would suggest to set a limit of gambling per weeks or per months to reduce your attention on the mobile app as well as reducing risk of losing money.

Considering all the aspects mobile gambling offers more advantages to gamblers. People can now gamble freely in their comfort zone. Non-stop gambling is also available here. Moving anywhere is not a problem and is best suited for fast gambling. There are also various features that increase the demand of gaming and users feel comfortable to using it.

[Reatim]

  Nowadays, we can say that gambling is really widespread in different parts of the world and I think it will not stop or disappear in every country even if it is still prohibited.

lol, who says it will disappear ? the question is about the rise of mobile gambling and  and addiction is nothing to be blamed for the site it is every persons problem.

Because the number of gamblers has spread, others have developed an addiction and it has become a vice because of greed and savagery for money thinking that they will suddenly get rich here without any difficulty because most of them rely on luck here in gambling. Gambling is now too high-tech in the current generation, so I can also say that gambling is at a hybrid stage level.

we are free to do everything we wanted, Gambling only offering fun and chance to win but it is our obligation to deal with it.

It seems to me that what it is happening is that people are having trouble adapting to this new reality in which we are interconnected 24 hours a day, just a decade ago this was still relatively rare and people could get away with not having a smartphone, but in today's world this is something impossible to do, this means that those that have some problems with their impulse control can easily become addicted to anything they can do with their phones, and a few examples of this are social media or gambling.

We must really pay attention to all online gambling, we must also be able to control ourselves from all gambling activities, because if we can't control ourselves and also can't get out of gambling, surely destruction will come to us, because gambling definitely promises. a very extraordinary advantage, so make gambling as entertainment is not a must, I am sure if we consider gambling as entertainment, our lives will not be destroyed, I personally only play sports gambling, because in my opinion sports gambling can provide fun and sports gambling will not destroying our economy.

Yes, that's the problem, today's problem gamblers can gamble from home or anywhere else at any time of the day. Digital availability, that makes it convenient for someone who bets in a responsible way from home, is a potential danger for problem gamblers, because it gives an ease to go in gamble binges that was not there before the digital era. And it's much harder to stop when they do think about it, too.

with less hassle mate, no possible raid if ever we are playing in local gambling outlet, no possible caught from our love one if we are hiding our gambling activities.

Non-stop gambling is also available here.

there are even casino houses in real that offers non stop gambling so i think it goes both ways from online to real casinos.

Moving anywhere is not a problem and is best suited for fast gambling. There are also various features that increase the demand of gaming and users feel comfortable to using it.

fast gambling but also fast losing if you don't have luck by your side lol.

This makes them explore further what the internet is and once they find that gambling is an interesting activity, it will be difficult for them to stay away from it or limit their time playing gambling. This also requires attention from us as smartphone users, especially for those who have money or a 24-hour internet connection. Yes, social media is a great example of limiting smartphone use so that it will not interfere with our other activities. Maybe if the development of smartphones and the internet is more advanced than now, this requires more attention and restrictions from us so that we can use smartphones and the internet properly.

Over-usages of your time online make you prone to getting addicted. It's not just the gambling concern, but there are bigger features that internet capabilities really provide to all the people who have access without restrictions. Though gambling is really a big concern since you can play wherever you are and whenever you want, unlike before which you needed to visit the offshore casinos to enjoy our favorite gambling games.

The technology really affects the time duration that people who enjoy or maybe get addicted to gambling, by simply clicking the site and everything is set to go.

It's alarming and without proper control of your time and good money managements, the chance of getting broke is really high.

Sports betting would indeed be better to do and prevent you from always betting without any limit. Generally, sports gamblers will focus on important matches or just bet on their favorite team. not too much time consuming to gamble every minute. Unlike slots or live casinos. However, sports betting can also destroyed the economy if the gambler does not control how many clubs he bets on and how much money he can spend. So, in fact, control is number 1 when it comes to the potential big loss of the economy from/because of gambling.

We are living in an online free world where we can access a lot of things including gambling. Everyone's has their own time and own money and it is their free will to spend the time and money as per their own will. Everyone is responsible for their acts. So we cannot blame that mobile gambling is running people life. If anyone is playing excessive gambling he is ruining his own life while other are using mobile  to access gambling anytime anywhere but play moderately.

Time is quicker when we're in front of our gadgets and that's why it's really making us spend a lot of time using these gadgets. It's a very effective way to kill time if you don't have anything to do.

You just sit and use your gadget and then later on, an hour has already passed.

Alarming as it is when you're not worried about your usage and time. And for the bettors that uses their phone, there's not that much of a problem if it's consuming their time.

Consuming time with gambling using a gadget is ok if they are not being drowned in gambling addiction.  We all know gambling usage itself is pretty much addictive, we have seen lots of cases on gadgets.  You can refer to this study for further information.[1]  But the thing is being exposed to gambling in any form may develop gambling addiction especially when a person is too hooked on their gadgets, passing time with gambling applications.  And gadget + gambling is one of the best time-consuming tandems with a negative side effect of either gadget addiction or gambling addiction, worst case scenario is possibly developing both.  So users who are into playing gambling games on their mobile should be aware of this possibility and impose self-control to not succumb to any of the stated addictions.

When you are already compromising other important things or responsibilities then this is where problems do started.Its not really that bad on having those past time in your mobile phone.
Doesnt only limit out on playing gambling but also with social media and other stuffs that you could possibly do on mobile since accessibility is there then everything could really be able
to engage on.Speaking about gambling then it is really that users were prone into that and we know that excess dealing or engagement is never been considered to be good.
When you are already addicted but still have the access on your phone then it would really be still useless.
