Wish they had a share app to friends. Will update after race weekend. ### 4/5 — Brometheus *2014-02-20* This app allows you to buy tickets and check the live status of the races as well as to see a real time video feed of the racetrack. You never have to leave your seat or deal with crowds in order to place a bet or check race times and status. ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2014-02-20, version 2.1.0* More racetracks need to have an app like this, I hate when I have to get up and place bets (such a hassle) BUT this app makes betting so easy. I love the colors and the simple user experience. Way to go Del Mar, see you next summer! ### 5/5 — Great app for the gaming industry *2014-02-14, version 2.1.0* This app allows you to purchase tickets and place wagers from the palm of your hand. Beautiful interface and very easy to use. Don't go to the races without it! ### 4/5 — So far very good. *2013-08-18, version 2.1.0* The Live Odds under Toteboard work great. Still trying out the rest. ### 2/5 — Where are pros picks? *2013-07-26, version 2.1.0* Gone from updated version. Besides ability to wager on track, that was really the only reason to have this app. Now?... ### 1/5 — Del mar race app *2013-06-30, version 1.0.1* This app is probably awesome, however it doesn't work on the Ipad, for satellite wagering I'd like to use my ipad and not be limited to my cell phone, oh well, just gonna have to show up to more races live ### 5/5 — Very easy! Great to place bets! *2012-09-04, version 1.0.0* I'm new to the races and this app made placing bets, doing research, etc. super easy. I will definitely be using this whenever I'm at the races! ### 2/5 — Good app, but uses a LOT of battery *2012-09-02* Useful information, but this app is quite a battery-sucker. Location services does not turn off even when you quite the app -- I know it's just a programming bug that will be finished in the next revision, but for the 2012 season you'd better bring your charger with you… beware!! Also, on-site wagering can get overloaded quite quickly so you should probably be near a betting window just in case. ### 3/5 — iOS App is great, SportTech website..not so much *2012-08-16* This app offers some great info about the track. It has short comings: 1) The Location Services can't be turned off within the app (setting is there, doesn't work), only through the iOS Settings/Location Services. 2) When Location Services is on, it does not stop using the service when the app is killed, draining the battery. 3) The track's tote system vendor SportTech/SciGames/AutoTote has developed a web site that is nice looking but is awkward to use. The betting process is antiquated and requires several page loads to place the bet. I have used United Tote's FastBet Mobile at Arlington Park and Keeneland and the process is much faster, especially on low bandwidth, high latency wifi connections. 4) The onsite WiFi is required to bet, coverage is really poor, generating more frustration waiting for the page to load. 5) The track has improved the account creation process but the cash deposit process at the self service terminals is crazy slow. You have to enter your PIN for every single bill inserted. The Mutuels person suggested I just buy a voucher and then use the voucher for the deposit. :/ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It won’t let me enter a pin number there’s no place on the app *2022-05-05* I’ve been a diamond member for years I just open my app up and it says enter your email address to verify and then check your email for a pin number so I do that and I come back to the app and there’s no place to enter the pin number🤷‍♂️ ### 1/5 — What’s the point?!! *2021-08-06* …when the necessary DMTC wifi is unreliable! “No Internet connection” during the entire race day…so, was unable to bet from the app. Worthless. ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2018-08-29, version 4.0.1* This is so useless... I submitted my email for a code and eventually after 30minutes it finally arrived and it said it was invalid. I copied and pasted it and it still wouldn't work. Overall just a huge waste of time and patience that I had for this app. ### 1/5 — Not Good *2018-07-22* I tried to buy tix for Saturday 7/28 and they are between $10-$37 according to the app but the drop down doesn’t show any monetary value. Sad ### 1/5 — Poor application *2018-07-21* The da is never correct, the button texts are never correct, for instance, click on either programs or results, I have a suggestion: make the Today, Yestrday & tomorrow buttons permanent, instead if creating the text on the fly,If you try to find a program, they only seem to be available under certain conditions, like for today(Friday 7/20 it displayed a program only having 10 runners when I know the field had 13 horses. You have some serious querry problems, hire me Ill fix it all for you very quickly. And above all: test your programming. looks like work of amature(Ibamacare Web programmers). your data cant be trusted, I’ll spread the word better to bet Belmont or SA whe it opens again their apps work correctly. ### 1/5 — First impressions ... again. *2015-07-17* Took the time to write an extensive review and my initial nickname was taken so my review just disappeared when prompted by the duplicate nickname -- not cool. Updated today as I was going to Opening Day for the first time in forever -- color me disappointed -- the app was useless on track. Most all features failed to load or froze. Connection issues I gather. Would be great to have a robust WiFi system for, let's say, Diamond Club members. Though once home I was unable to verify my Diamond Club card even though I entered my first/last name as it's listed on the actual DC card. Hopefully things improve. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2013-09-02, version 2.1.0* Update was worthless. Video used to be great. Now u can't see anything. Betting from my seat a track was great. Doesn't work now. Why do most updates make app worse instead of better?? ### 1/5 — Good Idea, but times out if you want to make a bet *2013-07-30, version 2.1.0* Seems like it will be a good idea but right now it's impossible to place a bet as it just times out over and over again. ### 1/5 — All kinds of bad *2013-07-21* The app has been updated since last year and it's only gotten worse. It's still not a native app experience, but merely a wrapper for their website. Secondly, it user experience is plain bad—when in the wagering section of the app, don't you dare hit the "Back" button in the top left or you'll be forced to go through the login process again. And then their WIFI access points are overloaded and "pages" on the app don't load half the time, this is a terrible, terrible thing. This app caused me to miss placing bets on two races, and I ended up using the kiosks the rest of the time. This app is an exercise in frustration. Additionally, it will cause your GPS radio to stay turned on even when the app is closed—kiss your battery life goodbye unless you go to Settings / Privacy / Location Services and turn it off for the app when not in use. ### 1/5 — Great idea, terrible user experience *2013-07-18* I was excited to try this app because of the long lines for betting on opening day. I went through the hassle of signing up at the track and while the app worked at the sign up station an hour prior to the first post, I was unable to place bets during the day. I was either sitting in an area where the Wi-fi was not available or I could not log in because the system was overloaded. I spent 15 minutes waiting for it to load 1 time and other times I just gave up as it sucked the juice from my phone. Again great idea but in practice failed miserably. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Makes it easy *2022-07-24* This makes being at the track so much easier. Thank you!! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2020-08-14* Extremely reliable app that makes my experience at the track better. ### 5/5 — Must have app if going to the races *2020-08-03* Single place to see everything you need for a fantastic day at the racetrack ### 5/5 — Easy betting! *2020-08-03* Love this app - I’ve never been to the races before but once I had my account set up, I could make all the bets I wanted!

Only issues have been the connection at the track. I have heard along the grapevine that it should be vastly improved for the 2014 season. Looking forward to winning some money without leaving my seat. ### 5/5 — Works for me! *2014-02-20* Not sure what some people are complaining about. The new updates have seriously improved the user experience (for me anyway) and it really does look nice. I've seen nothing but improvements and would highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2014-02-20, version 2.1.0* I love the interface of this app, it's super easy to use and makes race days more enjoyable! ### 5/5 — Love the Races, love the app! *2014-02-20, version 2.1.0* As a frequent del mar race track attendee, I am glad to have this on my phone. It makes my experiences at the races that much better every time!
