Best survey app I’ve used, but some problems

Updated: I no longer recommend this app. When I first started using it, the surveys were legit. If you don’t qualify, the surveys quit early on. However, now there are MULTIPLE times when I’ll complete the entire survey, only to bed I don’t qualify and not get paid at the end. You can spend 10-20 minutes in a survey and be “unqualified.” The app needs to do a better job of preventing this. It went from legitimate to total scam.

Compared to other survey apps I’ve used, this is definitely the best. It offers payouts if you don’t qualify, so at least you didn’t totally waste your time. And, it usually lets you know whether you didn’t qualify early on. That being said, there are issues. For starters, the advertising is a bit misleading. All the advertising is centered around “food missions,” but I’ve used the app for a while in a popular area and have yet to see any. Also, some of the partner surveys are total scams. A few of these literally take 20 minutes and collect your info, then claim you “didn’t qualify” (which is obviously a scam, because you just took the survey). The app has a disclaimer that it’s not responsible for partner surveys, but ultimately I think that’s wrong. It is using its app to promote them, and is thus somewhat responsible. At the very least, it needs to vet partner surveys and ensure they pay.

Best Survey App of 2024

Ive attempted to find Survey sites & apps that not only, pay fairly for each survey completed but one that doesn’t make cashing out impossible . This survey app is the absolute best one Ive ever had the opportunity of experiencing, each survey is between $.50-$1.50, and there’s even limited time location surveys that can pay from $1.00-$4.00!! One time I completed a survey making me eligible to test out a physical product, at the end of the trial and finishing the final survey I was awarded $9.60! The minimum limit you have to reach to cash out is $10, which is easily accomplishable if you remember to check into the app daily, and make sure to complete the Limited Time Location Surveys! The location surveys are the BEST way to make quick cash! I would definitely recommend this survey app, it’s fair and easy to make quick cash. I’ve already made $38 in two weeks at 30mins per day taking surveys! The only con to this app is I think the vpn or something is messing with cellular data. Everything is loading slow- if it loads at all. When I tuen the vpn off and disconnect the app from location and data my cellular data works perfectly for all the other apps… I wonder if any one else notices this issue? I Hope they fix that soon! Happy Surveying! Goodluck!

The app’s VPN will make your phone impossible to use

The good: this is probably the best app out there for surveys. They push only the most relevant surveys and reimburse you $0.05 when you don’t qualify (it used to be $0.10, but alas). Their product trials are also great, and I have gotten to try some cool stuff. With the VPN turned on, you’ll earn some passive money and be alerted to special, high paying surveys based on location. I have earned almost $200 from just this app since March!

The bad: The VPN makes my phone almost unusable. For months I was wondering why my phone couldn’t reliably attach to ANY internet- not the network or WiFi. I was so frustrated that I called my cell phone provider’s customer service to see if something was wrong. I tried switching phones, and I tried resetting my home WiFi network. A month ago, on a whim, I turned off the app’s VPN (which I didn’t want to do because the app pays out more the longer it’s activated). All of my network problems were solved. My phone suddenly worked better than it had since March.

The conclusion: no matter how amazing the app is for surveys, I have to be able to use my phone. I turned the VPN off permanently, and now make almost nothing. Once I get to the $10 payout, I will take it and delete the app. It’s such a bummer and I hope they can fix the problem; I would be willing to try again if they do.

BEWARE It made everything on my phone stop working

Do not, I REPEAT, DO NOT get this app. When I first downloaded the app it asked a location service question and when I agreed it connected a VPN to my phone. The second it showed up my internet mysteriously wouldn’t work even though I had data or I would be connected to internet. It caused a lot of problems for about and week but then my phone started working okay again for a few months. When I’ve tried to use this app in the past surveys never would work or would crash or not load. I stopped trying to use it but it was still downloaded to my phone. Then all of a sudden my phone wouldn’t connect to internet again even if it showed it was connected. Nothing was working, all my apps started crashing or not allowing me to get on them. The past 2 weeks I’ve hardly been able to do anything on my phone and I’ve been deleting things like crazy. I had about had it and was about to go buy a new phone which I can’t afford. But today I was looking through setting and found a thing about the VPN and it showed what app it was being sourced by and it was this app. I deleted the VPN and then deleted the app and now my phone is working completely fine all my apps are working and my internet is showing up at the top again.
I believe this app is scammy and suspicious honestly. So for the well being or your phone don’t delete this app!! It’s the worst!

Actually Pays You!!!

I love this app. It actually pays you unlike some of these other scam apps. Sometimes may not qualify for the survey and they’ll still give you like $.10 $.20 etc! That’s just for answering the main questions to see if you qualify for the survey. That may not seem like much but it adds up. Then the surveys you do qualify for pays differently {ex: $.50, $2, $3…etc} This is definitely NOT a get rich quick thing, but if you have a some spare time, it’s a good little side hustle! To me, it’s definitely worth a few minutes to answer a few questions. I will say though, it seems like I NEVER qualify for the trial products & it doesn’t send me different ones that I possibly could qualify for. It just resends the same survey that I don’t qualify for which is seriously frustrating. Now, sometimes when you’re at the end of a survey, sometimes it’ll glitch & it won’t redirect you. But you can make a Report the the app support team & that’ll review your issue to & still give you the money even if you didn’t finish the survey. Just wish I could get some trials surveys that I CAN qualify for other than that I LOVE this App!!!

This app is awesome!

I’ve had this app for three months now and I’ve already made $50. And yes, you can actually cash out real money through PayPal and you get it in minutes, rather than days. This is without a doubt the best survey app out there. Each survey will tell you usually in the first minute if you qualify, and if you don’t, they will give you $0.10. This doesn’t seem like much, but it adds up. Also, I will say that for me, it seems like the more often you do surveys, the more you will get. When I first started with the app I didn’t see a whole lot of survey opportunities but I did all I could. Then I noticed more and more popped up. Some days I could get six survey opportunities! I will say to keep your location on as lots of surveys will come through your location. For example, I went to Walmart, and a location survey popped up asking if I went to Walmart and to rate my experience which gave me $1.00. But even if the location gets it wrong (asking if you went to a restaurant next to the place you actually went) you still get $0.10 for answering no, I didn’t go there. As for customer service, I’ve had a few surveys that froze on me before I could finish, and I was at the very end. I contacted customer service and let them know and they gave me the full payout for the survey! They really are trying to do their best and be honest. I highly recommend this app. It is truly the best!

pretty good app

I have had this app downloaded for awhile and then I deleted it because the surveys didn’t really work but I got it back and I was able to redeem $10! It wasn’t a lot considering how long I had the app, but also it’s not like it’s an actual job, it’s just a side hustle and I was still able to get a little treat for myself. I personally rarely get surveys myself, besides the poll of the day, so my money earning is pretty slow. Payday is a pretty good way of getting a small stream of income and while it will likely take awhile, I should be able to cash out in a month or so. One thing that is frustrating about this app is that if and whenever I do get actual surveys, such as “Knowledge: 1.00”, I’ll either get all the way to the end and it’ll give me some error message and then kick me out, and then when I try to go back in, it’ll say that I already took the survey even though it kicked me out at the end and didn’t give me any money for my time. One other thing is at the beginning of each poll of the day, it will tell you how many days you have until you get a “cash bonus” and once I reach that point and it gives me the notification to claim my bonus, I’ll click on it and it will say something like “Oops! Looks like you already claimed it.”, even though it didn’t give me anything. So for me personally, my only way of paying out is to collect what I get from payday, but it’s still a nice little side hustle.

Earn money without sacrificing all your privacy data

I have cashed out I believe 3 times already and have enough for a fourth cash out. When I had a technical issue in store, I got a quick response and credited as I could not send in the photo. I get enough survey opportunities to make the app worthwhile. Tonight, I decided to look at some other survey apps and was horrified by one app’s privacy policy. That’s one advantage of Surveys on the Go. You can chose whether to share your browsing data. I don’t and still make money. I do share my location. I reread this app’s privacy policy and especially appreciate this line, “ When we sell or otherwise provide personal information to our Partners, we restrict them by contract from using personal information collected through the SOTG App for direct marketing or advertising of products or services back to you. “
One of the competitors I checked out mentioned using PII to allow companies to directly identify and market to/target you off app. Then after deleting the app, they could sell your aggregate information. This app has more scruples and is not horrifying to use. It is one of the better apps if you want to make money but have some assurance on how they use your data.

Took 2 stars for not getting the payout I was promised

So, I got selected to do a gum testing program, I was to be sent TWO 50 piece mentos purefresh freshmint flavor, well I got the first one in an adequate enough time and within 2 days or so survey 1 of 2 came to me. I completed it. I did another follow up on the gum a few days later, but was expecting another package to test, well it did come in and I did do my second survey (both was the same exact kind of gum BTW!!!) and it was completed, but stayed at thanks for completing this survey. Anyway, I contact support, I’m told that the company did the max amount of candidates, welp I was one of them, I received my items and acting, well I got HALF my payout of $16. I honestly think that we sign, initial, or Check something before doing the survey or being sent products that says we’re to be paid such and such upon completion. But they can screw us participants over. So in other words, that company got BOTH my reviews for HALF the payout, lovely. Kinda like getting robbed!!

Updated: The developers got in contact with me and the issue was resolved so I have revised my 2 star rating to 4. The paid product reviews are what really bring in the money on there so it’s nice they have them!!
