A Lottery App Can
Help You Hit a Jackpot
Want to win a lottery jackpot?
People use their cell phones for everything these days, and
entering the lottery is no exception. While nothing can guarantee that you
will hit a
big jackpot, there are plenty of lottery apps out
there that can make entering (and winning!) easier, more accurate, and
more efficient.
Here are just a few of the useful things that you can do if you
download a Play online lottery app for your cell phone or mobile
device.
Use a Lottery App to
Generate Number

If you haven't been having luck choosing your own winning
numbers, a lottery app might help. An app like the one from Random.org lets you generate random numbers for your lottery
tickets.
You can also use a lottery number generator like Lottery Formula, which includes statistical information for a bunch of
different lotteries including MegaMillions, Powerball, and state lotteries in its number recommendations. You
can pick whether you want to choose numbers that are drawn frequently, numbers
that appear more rarely, or your own lucky numbers to play.
If you want to play favorite numbers like birth dates of your
loved ones, personal lucky numbers, or meaningful anniversaries, lottery apps
can help make sure you don't get mixed up. An app like the MegaMillions
and Powerball App stores your lucky numbers so that you don't make any
mistakes when it's time to buy your tickets.

Have you ever found out about a huge jackpot too late to try to win it? Lottery apps can make
sure that never happens again. Many apps, including the apps offered by nearly
every state lottery, give you the
chance to get alerts when their jackpots hit a certain level.
You can decide whether to get an alert when the jackpot amount
changes at all or when the amount you could win makes it worth it to you to
play.
Lottery apps give you different ways to be notified including
through push notifications on your phone or by email. Pick the notification
method that's most likely to get your attention.
Using jackpot alerts ensures that you don't sit on the sidelines
while someone else scoops up your huge lottery win.
Stream Live Lottery Drawings
on Your App

Big lottery drawings are usually broadcast live on television.
But what if you've cut your television cord, aren't usually sitting around on
the couch in the evenings when the broadcasts are made, or would rather be
watching something else at that time of night?
If you'd like the excitement of seeing the lottery drawings
performed live but don't want to be bound to your television set, download a
lottery app like LotteryHUB, the official app of Powerball and
MegaMillions.
Apps like LotteryHUB let you stream the lottery drawings so that
you can watch them live, even when you don't have a television around. If you
don't have time when the drawing takes place, you can also watch older
broadcasts that you missed the first time around.
Check Winning Numbers From
Various Lotteries

Studies have found that in some years, over $2 billion goes
unclaimed by U.S. lottery players. Most of this money is left behind by people
who only checked the jackpot numbers and, when they didn't hit the jackpot,
didn't pay attention to smaller prizes.
Lottery apps can help you ensure that you don't overlook a prize
win, big or small.
If you like to play different kinds of lotteries, it can be
annoying to have to keep track of the winning numbers to
check. Plus, it's easy to forget the drawing date altogether and only remember
that you had a ticket when it's too late to claim your prize. A Play lottery online app can make checking your lucky
numbers a snap.
An app like LotteryHUB gives you a one-stop location
to check MegaMillions, Powerball, and state lotteries, quickly and
easily.
If you have a specific lottery you like to play, many state lotteries
have their own apps for you to use which makes it easy to check their numbers
quickly, wherever you are.
Some lottery apps even give you the option to scan your tickets
to check if you are a winner and be notified if you have a winner.
One
word of caution, though: some people have missed out on wins because their apps
didn't work properly, like this massive fail with the UK's National Lottery app. It's a good idea to double-check that the scan worked properly and
that all your numbers are showing up properly as well. It doesn't hurt to use a
different method of checking your numbers, too, in case that a notification
doesn't come through
