Which sites are on the block list?
Updated September 2026
There are three site lists in Fold'em and they are never added together. The web shield's resolver answers for about 356,500 gambling sites and reaches every browser on the phone. Screen Time's own website filter carries a much smaller curated list, ten domains today, and reaches Safari alone. The third list is yours: any website you tick in Apple's picker, up to 50, shielded the way an app is.
Three lists, three layers, three numbers
Fold'em guards three site numbers carefully and never sums them, because each belongs to a different mechanism and each covers different ground.
356,500 is the resolver's list. It is the number the app shows when you turn the web shield on and inside the web sheet, and it is the breadth layer: the resolver answers the name lookup for the whole phone, so it reaches Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and the browsers built into other apps.
Ten is the Screen Time filter's list today. Apple's framework caps that filter at 50 domains at once, so it is deliberately a short list of the largest operators rather than an attempt at breadth. It applies inside Safari only, and a match there shows Apple's own restricted site page. The ten shipped in the app are draftkings.com, fanduel.com, betmgm.com, caesars.com, espnbet.com, bet365.com, sportsbook.fanatics.com, hardrock.bet, pointsbet.com and stake.us.
The third list is the one you make. Websites you tick in Apple's picker are shielded like apps, not filtered, so they land on Fold'em's block screen. That list has its own cap of 50 and its own count, shown as "Sites you added" inside the web sheet.
Checking what is covered
-
Read the WEB tile first
No list matters while the resolver is not answering. The tile reads On and Sites never load when it is, and anything else means the breadth layer is not the one holding.
The web layer, on
-
Look up the operator
Each operator has a page of its own saying which layer covers it and which of its domains were answered, measured against the live resolver rather than asserted. Of 104 operators checked on 1 September 2026, 78 came back covered and 76 of those were answered by the resolver.
-
Add whatever is missing
Anything the lists do not carry, you can add yourself through the picker. It joins the seal for the rest of the term and cannot be taken back out before the term ends.

How the lists change
The resolver's list lives on Fold'em's servers, so it grows without an app update and without anything for you to do. The Screen Time filter's list is delivered to the phone with the app: the mechanism accepts a served list without a code change, and today the shipped ten are what the phone applies. If a list fetch ever fails, the last known list stays applied rather than being cleared, so a network problem can never quietly reduce what is blocked.
Your own list changes only when you change it, and only upward while a term runs.
What this does not do
No list of gambling domains is complete, and Fold'em does not claim one is. The operator pages state coverage site by site because that is the only honest form: a site that redirects to a domain nobody has catalogued will load. The lists cover this phone, not a laptop or a second device. And a blocked domain is not a blocked account: Fold'em does not close, freeze or self exclude you from an operator, which is what a national self exclusion scheme does and why the app points you at one.
