Getting the App on Your Device
Casino Charlevoix is part of the Hôtel-Casino de Charlevoix complex in La Malbaie, Québec, and operates within the Loto-Québec network. With the mobile app, we bring essentially the same casino experience to players across Canada, whether you connect from Ontario, BC, Québec or another province. The path to install looks a bit different on Android and iOS, but in both cases the process stays fairly direct.
On Android, our app is not listed on Google Play. Due to Google’s policy around real-money casino software, we provide the Android package (APK) through the official Casino Charlevoix website instead. For licensed casino operators in Canada this approach is very common, so it is not something unusual or unique to us.
On iPhone and iPad the situation is more relaxed. Apple allows real-money casino apps in the Canadian region as long as they meet local rules, so you can use the App Store path. For most players this tends to be the more convenient way to install.
Installing the APK on Android
Since the APK does not come directly from the Play Store, there is one manual setting to handle first. Your device needs to accept apps from unknown sources. On most Android phones and tablets that option sits under Security or Privacy in the main system settings. You only need to adjust it once, then the rest will move along normally.
Once that is done, you can start:
- Open your preferred mobile browser and go to the official Casino Charlevoix website.
- Look for the dedicated download area, usually visible on the homepage or through the main navigation menu.
- Tap the Android download button to launch the Casino Charlevoix download apk process.
- Wait until the APK file finishes downloading into your Downloads folder, then tap the file.
- Choose Install and let Android complete the installation.
- If your device shows a security warning about the source, confirm that you accept it - this is a standard alert for any APK installed outside Google Play.
After the install completes, a Casino Charlevoix icon appears on your home screen or in your app drawer. From there you simply open the app, log in with your existing credentials or create a new account, and you are ready to use the platform.
There is one more practical detail to keep in mind: before starting any APK installation, check that you have enough free memory. It is better to keep at least a few hundred MB of open storage. If the space is too tight, Android may stop the install in the background without any clear error, which is frustrating to track down later.
| Android Requirement | Minimum Specification |
|---|---|
| Operating System | Android 8.0 or higher |
| Storage Space | Approximately 80-120 MB |
| RAM | 2 GB minimum |
| Internet Connection | 4G LTE or Wi-Fi recommended |
| Installation Source | Official Casino Charlevoix website |
Installing on iPhone or iPad
On iOS devices the installation path is more linear. You go to the App Store, type Casino Charlevoix in the search bar, and then check that the developer information matches the official brand name. Once you see the correct listing, tap Get, confirm using Face ID, Touch ID, or your Apple ID password, and the app will install itself automatically. There are no security settings that need to be changed in advance.
Sometimes the app may not appear in the search results of a specific regional App Store. If that happens on your iPhone or iPad, you still have a reliable alternative. Open Safari, enter the Casino Charlevoix website address, and use our mobile web platform instead. The site is fully adapted for small screens and keeps the main casino functions available without requiring a separate iOS install. For smoother performance, we generally recommend iOS 15 or newer, although iOS 12 remains the technical minimum.
