### 2/5 — Low payouts.

*2026-08-15, version 4.1.2*

Get rid of the low ball payouts. There a joke! Two dollars four dollars. Also the cash five three digit payout should be at least 500 dollars. You go from 10 dollars to 4300 for four numbers your millionaires drawing is also a joke. I’ve watched it you might have four 500 dollar winners a week and the low ball payouts. Boost the winning and you will boost the players

### 4/5 — Drawings & Numbers

*2026-08-04, version 4.1.2*

I would really like the lottery to show the drawings on live TV. I tried to play my play 3 night numbers but the machine would not take them. Because it was 2:00 PM and the machine kept saying the drawings were already in progress? That was the day numbers. So I could not figure out why the machine would not play the night numbers?

### 1/5 — Absolute garbage

*2026-06-22, version 4.1.2*

Absolutely horrible if you buy tickets online. It doesn’t show if the tickets are winners or not and to check numbers in powerball for example, you have to open results on website or other app and then check numbers. Stay away

### 3/5 — iLottery Feature Request: Add Filter by Game to transaction history

*2026-06-20, version 4.1.2*

My Activity currently only allows filter by single calendar date.  This makes tracking multidraw game tickets time consuming.  Adding a filter would make it easier to know when to renew ones various draw games

### 1/5 — Always the same for years

*2026-05-29, version 4.1.2*

Ct continues to draw us high tax payers in in hopes of some relief via “ct lottery “ play every day for months and always off by a number or two. Get sick, take a vacation and what do you know, your numbers come out. Seems to me they need to be looked at for a minimum of 10 years back. I do believe technology has the a.i. capability to do such a thing and check for what would be called a scam.

### 1/5 — Scanner almost never works

*2026-05-18, version 4.1.2*

The only reason I ever open this app and it almost never works

### 1/5 — Pay increase

*2026-04-06, version 4.1.2*

The act lottery keep increasing the price for tickets almost impossible to keep up . . The new millionaire for life game I stated playing lucky for life when it was 2& and one time a week. Now it’s 5$ everyday .

### 1/5 — Deposit money

*2026-04-03, version 4.1.2*

Deposited money works but when withdraw money does not link to the bank, but it is ok to deposit money to play, so I have to have a check mail to my house. Stupid!

### 1/5 — App has NOT been working for a week or so now

*2026-03-12, version 4.1.2*

I am trying to check the statistic of scratch tickets however when the app opens you get error messages. I have exited and gone back in but still get the same error message. There’s no update showing either. Please fix this! The ticket checker works but that’s it. So frustrating

### 4/5 — Difficult

*2026-03-09, version 4.1.2*

The site goes down and doesn’t scan a lot and forget getting a password to work at all.

### 3/5 — Scanner

*2026-02-24, version 4.1.2*

Scanner inconsistencies frustrating. Room for improvement, check out ny scanner quicker and accurate.

### 1/5 — Scanner stopped working

*2026-02-22, version 4.1.2*

Latest update, to an already awful app has disabled the scanner. Get it together CT Lottery. With all the money made…

### 3/5 — Replay previous played numbers

*2026-02-22, version 4.1.2*

Hello, the app is great that it can be played on the go or at the comfort of your home. But I have one issue with it and hope it will be fixed in a future update. My only issue is that every time I play whether it’s day or night, I have to manually put the numbers in every time. It would be nice to have the option to replay your previous numbers from day or night and be modified to change or add different numbers. Overall it’s still a great app

### 1/5 — Scanner is trash

*2026-02-22, version 4.1.2*

### 1/5 — App

*2026-08-14, version 4.1.2*

Your App blows….

### 1/5 — OMG This App SUCKS!

*2026-08-13, version 4.1.2*

Any other state’s app seems to work just fine.  This ridiculous CT Lottery app doesn’t work.  Not if you want to actually scan a ticket in under 15 minutes.  Mind-boggling how they can make this work AO terribly and unreliably.

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2026-08-12, version 4.1.2*

Just set up an account and after I enter my password I just get a white screen that says sign up in upper right and it just hangs there.

### 1/5 — Disaster

*2026-08-09, version 4.1.2*

this app is so full of bugs and problems ! stay away !

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2026-08-09, version 4.1.2*

this app hardly every works and there are always issues with no support. someone is getting paid to make this work and like most CT government jobs they dont have a clue

### 1/5 — Another Boondoggle

*2026-08-08, version 4.1.2*

Slow, unresponsive and unreliable. Forget about using the scan feature for checking results - I’ve literally never got it to work.

### 1/5 — Ok App

*2026-08-02, version 4.1.2*

This app is ok, but it never works to scan tickets when checking winners or losers.

### 1/5 — Scanner does not work

*2026-07-05, version 4.1.2*

Works on scratch tickets but not on the bar codes on the paper tickets.

### 1/5 — Scanner

*2026-06-28, version 4.1.2*

Your scanner sucks… Keeps giving an error every time I use it on any of my phones

### 1/5 — Always errors

*2026-06-27, version 4.1.2*

The ‘scan your ticket’ function rarely works. Why don’t you fix it? I also tried to create a login 2 times last night so I could purchase a game, and that also gave me errors. It’s ridiculous. Fix the app.

### 5/5 — Cart.

*2026-07-17, version 4.1.2*

Yall need to improve the cart cause what if I have multiple games on it and I just want to purchase 1 or 2. Is not going to let me unless I purchase the entire cart. 🤦‍♂️.

### 5/5 — 20$ ticket

*2026-07-16, version 4.1.2*

Lots of winners

### 5/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-07-11, version 4.1.2*

App doesn’t work

### 5/5 — Lotto

*2026-07-01, version 4.1.2*

Fun to look up cards looking for winners.

### 5/5 — Lotto, The Easy Way

*2026-05-24, version 4.1.2*

Being able to use CT Lotto’s app to play all of my lottery numbers saves me a lot of time and money actually.  Since gas prices are so high I’m not using any extra gas  to go to the local convenience store to play lottery. It’s also great when you forget to stop and get your lottery tickets, if you prefer to have that paper ticket. You can just log on to the safe and secure app and play away!  

The CT Lottery app also allows you to set spending limits for playing. You will receive an alert message that you have hit your spending limit once you reach the specific dollar amount you set up. You can increase or decrease those limits as needed, but it’s a good way to remind you to watch your spending , especially with gambling. That’s something the Lotto machines can’t do. So if you’re on a budget and watching every dollar spent, then you can set up those safe guards each month and know you’re not over spending. Thanks CT Lottery!!
