The Danish Gambling Authority (DGA) launched a potential breakthrough with an innovative app named MitSpil. The Danes have always operated at the forefront of online gaming technology, and they have tackled problem gambling head on. The mobile app is a player-friendly resource designed to track game time, and monitor gambling-related activity. The analysis generated by the app is geared towards providing customized reports and data related to gambling activity.
A Possible Solution for Compulsive Gamblers?
The release of a gambling app is not a novelty per se – there are many gambling apps on the market that prevent players from registering and gambling for real money. The problem is that they only work if players are prepared to take the initiative. Gambling addiction is a universal problem, but the Danes are confident that the latest app will serve as an effective preventative measure for players. Players are required to interact with MitSpil by inputting their winnings and their losses over time. This allows players to understand precisely how much they are being affected by their gambling activity.
Intuitive App for Gambling Addiction
The app instantly notifies players when their gambling activity results in a negative return. In other words, when losses exceed winnings, players will be alerted to a problem. The app was released in November 2016, when it served as an informative resource for players. At the time, players used the app to understand the negative impact of problem gambling activity on their lives. Version 2 of the app is a major upgrade and provides in-depth analysis on actual winnings and losses over time. The app contains a feature which alerts players to blank periods of data input.
MitSpil v.2 is a Possible Rare Solution to Problem Gambling
The design and structure of MitSpil v.2 is geared towards making it as easy as possible for players to input their winnings and losses during their gaming sessions. It is also designed with a user-friendly interface to attract millennials who are likely to try the services offered by this Danish gambling app. According to the National Center for Social Research in Denmark, some 10,000 Danish adults between the ages of 18 – 74 suffer from problem gambling. The most threatened demographic in Denmark are males between 18 – 39 years of age. The app goes some way towards addressing the monetary problems of gambling addiction for players. Danish gamblers are encouraged to take responsibility for their compulsive gambling habits.
