Block BetUS with Fold’em
- Get Fold’em and finish setup. Setup asks you to turn on site blocking and to check your phone for gambling apps, and you can do either later in the Lock tab.
- Turn on site blocking. If you skipped it in setup, tap the pill on Lock, then Sites, then Set up, and Fold’em walks you through the four taps in Settings. While it is on, the Sites page counts the gambling sites blocked in every browser and app.
- Add any BetUS app on your phone. Tap the pill on Lock, then Apps, then Add apps, and pick it in Apple’s picker.
What Fold’em covers, layer by layer
One site for BetUS, measured on 1 September 2026 against the list Fold’em hands to Screen Time and the live resolver at dns.foldem.app.

In Safari, and in the app
On 1 September 2026 the web shield’s resolver, dns.foldem.app, answered betus.com.pa with 0.0.0.0, the address for nowhere, so that page never loads in Safari, in Chrome, in Firefox or inside any other app on this phone. Switch the DNS setting off and every answer for betus.com.pa is a real address again, so the setting is half of what makes this true.
The list Fold’em hands to Screen Time is ten domains long and no BetUS domain is on it, so that layer adds nothing here. In a browser BetUS is covered by the web shield above, and by nothing else.
Fold’em’s own block screen is a third thing and it is neither of the first two: it lands over the apps you chose, over a website you added in Apple’s picker and over the Games category if you turned Games on, and a Lockdown run you start can close every app except Phone and the ones you keep. This measurement names no BetUS app on the App Store. If one is on your phone you can still block it, because the picker reaches any installed app. Once you turn Games on, a new install the App Store files under Games is blocked too.
Their own self exclusion tools
BetUS lists two controls, and both are worked through its support line rather than through a switch on the page itself. A deposit limit caps what can be paid in over a day, a week or a month, and the button the page offers for it is a call to support. Self exclusion blocks access to the account either temporarily or permanently, and it is asked for the same way.
The questions and answers lower down add two more facts. A self exclusion period cannot be reversed once it is set, and the tools themselves live in the account settings. No cool off window, wagering cap or session cap is named anywhere on the page. Fold’em asks for no phone call and can reverse nothing on their side of the line. Their block ends one account; this one ends what this phone will load.

What this does not do
Fold’em runs on this iPhone and nowhere else: it does not reach a second phone, a laptop, a shop or cash, and it cannot stop an account being opened. This page says nothing about any BetUS domain it did not measure. The resolver's list is compiled from public gambling lists that change, so 1 September 2026 is the bound on every answer on this page.
