Block Danske Spil on iPhone

What Fold'em covers, layer by layer

One app and one site, measured on 1 September 2026 against Fold'em's guided checklist, the curated list it hands to Screen Time, and the live resolver at dns.foldem.app.

In Safari, and in the app

Every name this phone looks up goes to dns.foldem.app for as long as the web shield's DNS setting is on, and that answer reaches every app on the phone rather than Safari alone. On 1 September 2026 it answered danskespil.dk 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 here is a real address again, so the setting is half of what makes this true. The Shield tab's web tile reads On while it is on.

The list Fold'em hands to Screen Time is ten domains long and no Danske Spil domain is on it, so that layer adds nothing here. In a browser this operator 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 an app you sealed and over a website you added yourself in the picker, and over nothing else. The Danske Spil app is not on the guided checklist, so Fold'em does not name it for you. Search by name in Apple's picker, tick, and seal: the app shield covers the apps you picked and nothing else.

Their own self exclusion tools

Danske Spil puts four things in front of a customer on its own pages. You can set a limit on what you pay in, take a shorter or a longer break, see a running account of what you have won and lost, and sit a video based self test.

Self exclusion is not one of the four. The page carries the line that you exclude yourself from gambling through ROFUS, the Danish register it links to at rofus.nu, rather than through Danske Spil itself. The same pages state that players under 25 are held to lower limits and watched more closely, and that they run a scanner looking for changed or unhealthy play behaviour.

ROFUS closes Danish gambling accounts and Fold'em closes this phone. Neither one substitutes for the other, and a Fold'em seal on danskespil.dk holds while a ROFUS registration is being processed.

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. It does not cover any Danske Spil domain this measurement never asked about, and it does not seal an app you never picked: an app filed outside the Games category is covered only by being on your own list. 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.
