Tote app ratings
Ratings checked 21 October 2026. Scores change over time, so follow the source links for the latest figures.
Why the scores differ: App Store and Google Play ratings mostly reflect how the app itself works, while Trustpilot reviews cover the whole company, including withdrawals, account checks and customer service. That’s why a bookmaker can score highly in the app stores but still attract plenty of complaints on Trustpilot.
