BLOCK BETMGM.
Untilt blocks BetMGM on your iPhone — the app and betmgm.com stop loading while a wall is up. BetMGM's responsible gaming menu offers timeouts and exclusion at the account level; this page covers the difference between closing an account and closing a phone.
What BetMGM's own tools do
BetMGM provides deposit limits, time-outs, and self-exclusion through its responsible gaming settings (branded GameSense in most states). Exclusion terms range from days to years depending on the state, and several states tie BetMGM exclusion into their statewide programs.
Account tools close the account. Not the phone.
A timed-out BetMGM account has no effect on the app sitting on your phone or the site loading in Safari — and none at all on the other books. Operators run exclusion per-account, not per-phone.
Untilt works at the layer the operator can't: this iPhone. BetMGM's domains are covered by default, and the same wall covers DraftKings, FanDuel, Caesars, and the rest simultaneously.
| Screen Time | Delete the app | BetMGM account tools | Untilt wall | |

| Blocks the app | Limit only | Until reinstall | No | Yes, while up |
| Blocks the website | Partially | No | No | Yes, while up |
| You hold the override | Your passcode | Reinstall | Locked for the term | Not mid-wall |
| Covers other books too | Per-app setup | No | No | Every covered book at once |
| Requires an account | No | No | Yes | No |
Three ways to block BetMGM on iPhone
1 · DIY Screen Time. Free and built in: set an app limit or block the website under Settings → Screen Time. The honest part: you know your own passcode, "Ignore Limit" is one tap, and web workarounds are endless. It's a speed bump you own the keys to. Full walkthrough in why Screen Time alone isn't enough.
2 · Delete the app + restrict downloads. Deleting BetMGM helps for a night — until a two-minute reinstall. Pairing it with Screen Time's purchase restrictions is stronger, but the website still loads, and the restriction shares that same passcode problem.
3 · A timed, maintained wall (Untilt). Untilt uses the same Apple Screen Time technology — without handing you the keys. One hold walls off a maintained set of 50 wagering apps and 50 gambling sites on this iPhone — BetMGM's app and website together, alongside every other covered operator — until the end time you chose. Walls are timed: free 1-hour walls forever, longer with Pro, and mid-wall there is nothing to toggle off. No account, no card, and everything runs on the device.
60-second setup
Install Untilt, allow Screen Time when iOS asks (one permission, one time — blocking is applied on-device, and Untilt cannot read your activity), then press and hold for two seconds. The wall goes up and BetMGM stops loading until the end time on the readout. When it matters most — mid-tilt, before the game, the moment the deposit urge hits — the whole ritual is one hold.
Questions
Does blocking BetMGM cover MGM's casino apps too?
The default list targets BetMGM's betting and gaming domains. If an MGM gaming surface loads during a wall, tell us at support@tryuntilt.com.
Do I need a BetMGM account for Untilt to block it?
No. Untilt never touches your BetMGM account — it blocks the domains on your device. No account, no login, nothing shared with the operator.
Does this block the website too, or just the app?
Both. A wall blocks the covered apps and the covered websites together — BetMGM's app and its domain are each in the maintained catalog, and Apple's Screen Time technology enforces both on this iPhone.
Does it work on cellular, or only Wi-Fi?
Both. The block is applied on the iPhone itself, so it holds on 5G, LTE, and any Wi-Fi network without router changes.
Can I take the wall down early?
Free walls run one hour and then come down on their own. Ending a long wall early is deliberately slow — a 24-hour wait, then a 15-second hold. Untilt never claims to be impossible to bypass; iOS gives the phone's owner final control. It claims to make the next bet slower than the urge.
