The working list gives 15 July 2026 as the issue date, later than the 1 July 2026 entries for several other candidates. Read the date from the register entry itself.

Streaming and racing, as the operator documents them
Assistants described William Hill as good for racing and live betting, and said it offers streaming. We do not repeat that as fact.
| Question | Where the answer lives | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Does the app offer live streaming? | Operator terms on streaming | Not checked |
| What conditions come with a stream? | Same terms page, quoted with date | Not checked |
| Which sports are streamed? | Operator rules; listed only if published | Not checked |
| Is cash out offered? | Operator rules on cash out | Not checked |
Background: live streaming in betting apps and cash out.
In short: Streaming conditions are read from terms, not from praise.
Store listings: App Store and Google Play
The Irish App Store and Google Play listings are read on the same day. That way version and update dates can be compared fairly.

Safer-gambling controls

- Deposit limit: Not checked
- Time limit or reminder: Not checked
- Time-out: Not checked
- Self-exclusion: Not checked
- Link to help: Not checked
In short: C4 is the heaviest criterion at 30 points.

- Apple Pay: Not checked
- Google Pay: Not checked
- PayPal: Not checked

In short: Ten points at most; credit cards never count.
Features
Streaming and cash out are the two features assistants stress. Terms tied to them carry a seven-day shelf life, because rules on streaming and racing can change.
- Live streaming: Not checked
- Cash out: Not checked
- Bet builder: Not checked
- Notification controls: Not checked
In short: Terms older than seven days get a warning.
How we score
William Hill has no AppScore v1 line yet. The gate and six criteria must be read first.
Strengths: none recorded. Weaknesses: none recorded. A racing strength, if any, would show up only through documented streaming and cash out.
In short: Racing is not a criterion; documented features are.
What we did not check
- Racing prices and price-promise terms: outside the method.
- Promotions: this site publishes none.
- Withdrawal speed: Not checked.
- Account experience: no account opened.
In short: Prices and racing terms sit outside AppScore.
