Open in BrowserHow to install esse on Android

- Launch and log in: After installation completes, tap "Open" to launch esse. Enter your username and password, then set up two-factor authentication if you choose. Your esse account is now active on your phone.
App versus browser: strengths of each on esse
Our native Android app on esse caches game assets locally, so tables and slots load faster on repeat visits—critical during peak hours when tournaments like Piala Indonesia draw concurrent traffic. Push notifications alert you to Liga 1 lineups, new live-dealer seat openings, and payment method updates. The app also offers gesture-based quick-bet shortcuts and one-tap account balance access. However, the app requires storage space and periodic updates.
The iOS browser version on esse requires no download; you simply open Safari or Chrome and log in. It works on any iOS device, synchronises instantly across your other devices, and never needs updating. The trade-off is slightly slower initial load times and no offline cache. Many esse users switch between app (on Android for daily play) and browser (on iPad for live-dealer tournaments or when travelling) depending on their device and network.
Unified wallet across all devices
Whether you access esse via the Android app, iOS browser, or desktop, your balance, game history, and deposit/withdrawal records are identical. Log out on one device and log in on another—your account state syncs instantly. This is especially useful during Idul Fitri or Idul Adha holidays when you may travel between cities.
Device compatibility and system requirements
We at esse support Android 7.0 (Nougat) and later on phones and tablets. This covers more than non-specific info of active Android devices in Indonesia, including older Samsung Galaxy, Redmi, Realme, and Oppo models. For iOS, we support iOS 12 (released 2018) and later via browser—this includes iPhone 5s through the latest models. You do not need to upgrade your phone to use esse; most devices manufactured in the past five years work without issue. If you experience compatibility problems, contact our support team, and we will assist with troubleshooting or recommend alternative access methods.
Common installation issues and solutions
If your Android device displays "Installation blocked" when downloading the APK, your security settings may be restricting unknown sources. Return to Android Settings → Apps or Security, find "Unknown Sources," and confirm it is enabled. If the APK file fails to download, clear your browser cache, restart your phone, and try again from our support email or a trusted link.
iOS users who cannot access esse in Safari may see a certificate warning. This is rare but can occur on older devices or if your device clock is misaligned. Check that your device date and time are set to automatic. If the warning persists, try a different browser (Chrome, Firefox) or clear your Safari cache. Our support team can provide a direct iOS app link if browser access remains blocked.
If you install the app but cannot log in, verify that your username and password are correct (they are case-sensitive). Ensure your device has an active internet connection—try a website like Google first to confirm. If login still fails, reset your password via the "Forgot password" link on the login screen, and our support team will confirm the reset email within minutes.
Data, permissions, and account security on esse mobile
We at esse encrypt all data in transit (using TLS/SSL) and store your account credentials, transaction history, and game records in secure servers. When you install our app, we request permissions for your device ID (to detect and prevent multi-accounting fraud), camera (to capture your photo for KYC verification), photos (to upload your ID document), and location (optional, for regional promotions). We never share these permissions with third parties. Your device ID and photos are deleted after successful KYC verification unless you choose to retain them for account recovery. Two-factor authentication (via email or SMS) is optional but recommended; it requires a code from your registered email or phone number every time you log in from a new device. Your esse account remains protected even if your phone is lost, stolen, or compromised—contact our support team, and we will lock your account within minutes and assist account recovery on a new device.
- App storage
- The esse app uses approximately 80–150 MB of device storage for cached game assets and logs. You can clear app cache anytime in your device settings without losing your account data.
- Battery and data usage
- Live-dealer streams use 2–5 MB per hour depending on video quality. You can lower quality in app settings to save mobile data. Background app refresh is off by default; enable it only if you want push notifications.
- Logout and security
- Always tap "Log out" when you finish playing on a shared device. Logging out clears your session and prevents unauthorized access to your account.
- Updates
- We release updates periodically to fix bugs, add features, and patch security vulnerabilities. The Android app can auto-update; check Play Protect or your device's security app settings. iOS browser updates via Apple's Safari automatically.
