UNTILT VS GAMBAN.
Short version: Gamban is an always-on, multi-platform gambling blocker on a subscription — broad, established, well-tested. Untilt is an iPhone kill switch for sportsbooks, DFS, and prediction markets — sealed timed walls, free 1-hour walls forever, no account. Which fits depends on what you're closing and on how many devices.
What Gamban gets right
Credit first: Gamban largely built this category. The category incumbent: multi-platform gambling-site blocker, subscription (~$30/yr) with a free trial, strong independent-testing and charity partnerships, UK roots. If your exposure spans casinos and slots across a phone, a laptop, and a tablet, an always-on multi-platform blocker is the correct shape, and Gamban is a strong one.
The comparison
| Untilt | Gamban | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free 1-hour walls forever · Pro $6.99/mo or $39.99/yr | Subscription (~$30/yr), free trial |
| Platforms | iPhone | iOS, Android, Windows, Mac |
| Scope | Sportsbooks · DFS pick'em · prediction markets | All gambling categories, worldwide |
| Kalshi / Polymarket | Blocked by default | Not its focus |
| Model | Timed walls you seal on purpose | Always-on while subscribed |
| Account | None | Account + subscription |
| Where blocking runs | On the device (Network Extension) | App-level blocking per platform |
| Tone | Equipment for bettors | Clinical-sector framing |
The real difference is the model
Gamban's model is abstinence infrastructure: subscribe, install everywhere, keep it on. Untilt's model is a kill switch: the wall is something you raise — one hold before the game, through the night, or for a Pro-length window with a deliberate exit. If always-on is what you need, that's a point for Gamban. If the always-on subscription is the reason you never install anything, a free sealed hour is the point of Untilt.
The coverage difference is sharper: Untilt treats DFS pick'em and prediction markets as first-class action. Kalshi and Polymarket ship in the default blocklist — categories most gambling blockers weren't built to see.
Honest bottom line
Multi-device, all-category, always-on: Gamban (or BetBlocker, free — that comparison here). iPhone-centered sports betting and prediction markets, wanting friction that's instant, private, and free to start: Untilt. Broad exposure: stack both layers.
Questions
Is Untilt a Gamban alternative?
For blocking sportsbooks on an iPhone, yes — with a different philosophy: timed walls you seal on purpose rather than an always-on subscription block, sportsbook/DFS/prediction-market focus rather than all gambling, and a free tier. For multi-device or Android coverage, Gamban or BetBlocker fit better.
Which blocks more gambling sites?
Gamban blocks the wider gambling universe (casinos, slots, bingo, worldwide operators). Untilt's list is narrower and deliberate: US sportsbooks, DFS pick'em, and prediction markets — including Kalshi and Polymarket, which general gambling blockers often miss.
Can I use both?
Yes, and for heavy coverage that's a reasonable stack: Gamban's always-on breadth plus Untilt's sealed walls and prediction-market coverage on the iPhone.
PUT THE WALL UP.
Hold once. Covered sportsbooks, DFS apps, and prediction markets stop loading on this iPhone. 1-hour walls are free forever; Pro holds longer.
