What’s New This Season?

The National Lottery has rolled out a handful of updates you’ll want to know about. The official app now lets you scan tickets in seconds, thanks to a faster barcode reader. Security has been tightened, so you won’t see bogus results popping up on social media. There are also a few rule tweaks – for example, the Thunderball draw window has shifted by 15 minutes to give you extra time to buy tickets online.

All of these changes aim to make playing smoother and safer. If you haven’t updated the app yet, do it now; you’ll get push notifications for win alerts, new game launches, and responsible‑play reminders.

This Week’s Lotto Buzz

Every Friday, the UK watches the Lotto draw like a mini‑event. This week the jackpot sits at £7.5 million, up from last week’s £6.2 million. EuroMillions is also climbing, with a £20 million prize teased for the next draw. You can check live results on the app or the official website – just tap the “Results” tab and you’ll see the winning numbers instantly.

Want to boost your chances without spending more? Try the “Lucky Dip” feature on the app; it picks random numbers for you and saves a few seconds of thought. Many players report that the random picks feel just as lucky as their own numbers, and it takes the guesswork out of the equation.

Checking your ticket is now as easy as a photo. Open the app, point your phone at the ticket, and the system tells you instantly whether you’ve won. No need to keep the paper ticket forever – a digital copy is enough for most prizes up to £500. For bigger wins, you’ll still need the physical ticket, so keep it safe.

Responsible play is a core part of the lottery’s message. The app includes a built‑in spend‑limit tool. Set a weekly budget and the app will remind you when you’re close to the limit. It’s a handy way to enjoy the excitement without over‑spending.

So, what should you do next?

• Open or update the National Lottery app today.
• Check the “Current Jackpots” section for the latest prize money.
• Use the ticket‑scan feature right after each draw.
• Set a spend limit if you want to keep play in check.
