Block Svenska Spel 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 svenskaspel.se 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 Svenska Spel 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 Svenska Spel Sport & Casino 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

Svenska Spel gives every customer a personal play limit from the moment they start, and its own page states that players aged 18 and 19 cannot hold one higher than 1 000 kronor a month. The same page describes restrictions it applies itself when its monitoring reads rising risk, such as a cap on the number of deposits in a day or on the monthly amount played for, and a call from trained staff.

The national pause is Spelpaus.se, confirmed with an electronic identity against the Swedish gambling authority. You choose 10 days, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or until further notice with a minimum of 12 months, it cannot be regretted or ended early, and it covers every game requiring registration at every company licensed in Sweden.

Fold'em holds no licence and appears on no register. It shuts the app and the site on one iPhone instead.

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 Svenska Spel 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.
