It's a painful experience using the new Twinspires interface by phone. If you already have a bet at a particular track, then you can revisit that track through your registered bets. But if you just log on and try to look up a certain track...then you are in for a load of aggravation. Of course, when seconds count...the Twinspires customer service agents are just minutes away.

It seems that Twinspires has forgotten the cardinal rule of bookmaking: "Finding a good bet might be difficult...but MAKING it should be easy:.

After getting to the site I now have to click 9 times to get to where I can make a bet.

1-sign in, no complaints with this
2-drop down
3-preferences
4-click classic
5-click for track
6-click on track(s) I'm playing
7-click video
8-click flash player--this is new as of 2 weeks ago
9-click allow once

Then if I download another track's pp's from handicapping menu, when done, I have to do most of 9 clicks listed above to get back to the classic betting page.

Could one ADW just design their betting platform to look and operate like a SAM????

I too have stumbled around trying use the new format on my PC. I usually use Firefox bit when all functions didn't work I tried Edge. Gave up for awhile and went back to the classic view which I like much better. I since have found the app works best using Chrome.



Last week I got a new iPad Pro and was all set. Wrong! It didn't work in Safari. The lady in tech support advised me to download Chrome on my iPad. I found I could do everything but save the PP's.To get around this I downloaded and saved the PP's on my PC and emailed them to my iPad for use at the simulcast facility. In the future I will probably use Dropbox.



I had a long IT career and our team thoroughly tested newly developed applications in all browsers. Occasional minor tweaking might be needed. This was in government and believe me elected officials didn't want to hear from the general public that their apps wouldn't work.

Not that its any consolation, but Xpressbet logs you out pretty quickly as well.

I can't believe someone gave the thumbs up for this new format. It's so bad the only way to play with twinspires is through the phone app.

Would be nice if they update the app every now and then, though. It hasn't changed for years as far as I know ... they don't let you know there's a newer version available if there is any.
