Accessing Real Bridge |
Each Real Bridge session is unique and is accessed by clicking on a link provided for the session, this includes the password for the session. A screen similar to the one below is displayed.
The box on the bottom right should show the image from your device camera and the microphone should indicate if your microphone is operating properly
Fill in your full name - this is your real name not your BBO Username. Please enter name in full as Real Bridge at the moment does not cater for duplicate names

iPads and Other Tablets |
With the smaller screens on iPad and other tablet devices it is easy to select the wrong bid or card. Some tips to improve this are:
- Go into ‘Settings’ by tapping on the ‘cog wheel’ settings button, then click on ‘Simplified Cards’ and OK. This makes cards easier to select on smaller screens
- Also in Settings you can set ‘Double Tap’ this means that you must confirm your bid or card before it is selected. This is not double-click as to confirm the bid the second tap or click is made on the bottom of the table rather than clicking a second time on the bid/card
- If not already doing so use a capacitive stylus pen to tap the screen – these are available from Amazon at various prices – normally below £10.
Advice for iPad Users
iPad issues after upgrading to iOS 15
Apple released iOS version 15.0 in September and 15.1 in October. In these releases they changed a setting relating to browser-based audio and video. This has caused issues for some players. If you have upgraded to iOS 15, we recommend a settings change, which resets this functionality to what it was in earlier versions.
If you are an iPad user who is experiencing new problems after upgrading to iOS 15.0 or 15.1, please follow the instructions here:
