The full pkr398 platform in your pocket — cricket betting, PSL markets, live casino, bingo, slots, and more. Download the app for free and get set up in under five minutes. Both Android and iOS are supported, with a direct download from this page.
The app is distributed directly from pkr398 rather than through app stores. Follow the steps below for your device — the process is straightforward and takes just a few minutes.
Before downloading, go to your phone's Settings → Security (on some Android versions it's under Privacy or Apps). Look for "Install unknown apps" or "Allow from this source" and enable it for your browser. This step is required because pkr398 distributes the app directly rather than through the Google Play Store.
On this page, tap the green Android APK download button. Your browser will begin downloading the pkr398 APK file. The file is approximately 28 MB — it should download quickly even on a standard 4G connection. You'll see the download progress in your notification bar.
Once the download completes, tap the notification to open the file directly, or navigate to your phone's Downloads folder (usually in Files or My Files app) and tap the pkr398 APK. Your device will prompt you to confirm the installation.
Tap the Install button on the confirmation screen. The installation takes about 10–15 seconds on most Android phones. You don't need to do anything during this step — just wait for the "App installed" confirmation to appear.
Tap Open on the installation complete screen, or find the pkr398 icon on your home screen or app drawer. Log in with your existing account credentials or tap Register to create a new account. Your PKR balance and bet history sync immediately on login.
The iOS installation works through Safari specifically. Open Safari on your iPhone — not Chrome or any other browser — and navigate to the pkr398 Download page. The iOS installation uses a profile-based method which Safari handles natively.
On this page, tap the iOS / iPhone download button. Safari will show a prompt asking if you want to allow the download and installation. Tap Allow or Install — the pkr398 app icon will appear on your home screen with a progress circle while it installs.
This is the one step that catches new users out. Go to Settings on your iPhone → General → VPN & Device Management. You'll see a profile listed under the pkr398 developer name. Tap it and then tap Trust. This one-time action allows the app to run — without it, the app will show "Untrusted Developer" when you try to open it.
Return to your home screen and tap the pkr398 icon. The app will open normally now that the developer profile has been trusted. Log in or register, and all platform features are immediately accessible — sports betting, casino, bingo, payments.
iOS will ask if you want to allow notifications from pkr398. Tapping Allow lets the app send you match alerts, bet settlement notifications, and promotional updates. You can control which notification types you receive in Settings → Notifications → PKR398 at any time.
The pkr398 website works fine in a mobile browser, so why go through the extra steps of downloading an app? The honest answer is that for regular players, the app delivers a noticeably better experience — and that becomes clear pretty quickly once you're using it.
The most obvious difference is speed. The app caches the core interface locally on your device, which means it doesn't need to reload everything from scratch every time you open it. On Pakistan's 4G networks, that difference in loading time is real — especially during busy moments like PSL match days when you want to get a live bet placed quickly between overs.
Beyond speed, the app gives you biometric login — fingerprint or face unlock on supported devices — so you're not typing your password every time you open it. Push notifications mean you're alerted to match starts, bet settlements, and odds movements without needing to check manually. And the betslip on mobile is more naturally thumb-friendly in the native app compared to using a browser on the same screen.
None of that makes the browser version unusable — it works perfectly well if you prefer not to install anything. But if you're betting on cricket regularly throughout a PSL season, the app just makes the day-to-day experience smoother and quicker.
The app is built to run on the majority of smartphones currently in use across Pakistan. Check your device against the requirements below.
Because pkr398 doesn't distribute through Google Play or the App Store, updates don't install automatically the way they might on apps you downloaded from those stores. When a new version of the app is available, you'll see a notification inside the app itself prompting you to update.
The update process on Android is the same as the initial install — download the new APK from the pkr398 Download page and install it over your existing app. Your account, settings, and data remain intact through the update. You don't need to uninstall the old version first unless the update prompt specifically instructs you to do so.
For iOS users, the update process follows the same profile-based flow as the first install. Open Safari on your iPhone, visit the Download page, and follow the iOS install steps again with the updated version. The Trust Developer step may or may not need to be repeated depending on whether the developer profile has changed.
It's worth keeping the pkr398 app updated — updates typically include performance improvements, new features, security patches, and fixes for any bugs reported by players. Staying on an outdated version can occasionally result in features not working as expected, particularly around live betting where real-time data handling is important.
