Horrible Now
2 years ago I use to play the app and would be done in less than 2 hours, now this app is HORRIBLE to play , after every single play you have to sit through the ads and most of the time it freezes and you have to go out and come back in, now it would take me from 8am to 11pm to finish the entire app, they have completely taken the fun out of this app and It must be on purpose because clearly they have read all these reviews and have done NOTHING to change it back to how it was 2 years ago. So I will no longer be playing the app and I don’t think they care or like I said they would have fixed it back to the way it was, It’s a WASTE of time to play now, just go to their website and do the emails they are MUST easier and fun!Show lessCandace1177
The ADS!!
I completely understand that apps survive on subscriptions and ad revenue, but the number of ads is ridiculous!! It seriously makes using the app quite unbearable. I have not seen another app with this many ads. There are some lotto games that require you to watch an ad when you submit the *first part* of that game, then you play the second half and it makes you watch more ads! The same activity takes 1/3 of the time on the website. Very disappointing.
UPDATE: Something else that irritates me is that you only receive a point toward the bonus game once for every 3–4 cards you submit, but you get them for every game online. Seems like you could at least give us the right points since we have to deal with all these ads!Show lessLaurasProofs
Fun app, but flawed
I have really enjoyed playing this app over the past year and a half. It’s free and atleast it makes me feel like there is some hope of winning. I have managed to get a few 10-20 dollar checks from the scratch off games so it is definitely a legitimate game. However, I have considered quitting this app a few times due to how time consuming it can be. Especially considering how long the ads are. I understand that they need to run the ads, but when you get several 30-60 second ads in a row it starts to slow your day down. I appreciate the ones where you can X right out of it and keep playing. It’s a fun app, but if you want to keep me playing you need to do something about the ads. This app will also wear your battery down too. A lot of flaws, but it can be fun.Show lessNardDog1979
Read a review
I read a review saying it’s just a game and who cares if you don’t get at least something because you didn’t put anything in aka it’s free. I’m sorry but I disagree. Everyone who gets this app is spending something and that’s their time. Which is the most valuable asset there is. Time for everyone is finite and we all have soo little and that is worth money. Hence why jobs/careers pay you for it.
The problem with games like this is that they prey on the fact that people are in need to steal their time. Which time is money. It’s the same reason why gambling is illegal unless it is controlled because it preys on peoples hopes for a a great life which is unattainable for most people because capitalism favors a very small percentage of people. It’s a terrible thing and a shame that people live and die without being able to enjoy a rich life. Everyone should be able to enjoy everything and not have the restraints of a piece of cloth like money. And yes if access to everything was open to everyone, the jobs needed for those things would be fulfilled simply by the fact that there is enough people with different passions to fill every position. The work would be done out of love and the simple fact that when they are off “work”, they can go enjoy every luxury without the need of a dollar bill.Show lesseverythingistaken12344321
Too Many Ads, Not Enough Time!
Ever since October, 2020, I've been getting an ad every other number pick/cards flip. It used to take me 3 hours to complete everything on the app for the day but now it would take me like 6-8 hours. I don’t have that kind of time to spend/waste on this app. It’s not like I’m some old grandpa or grandma with nothing better to do. I can squeeze a few hours a day, but that’s it. Be nice if y’all could tune down on the ads. If I had $0.10 for every ad, I would have like $10,000 by now. Just from this year alone! No joke or exaggeration. I’ve watched hundreds of thousands of ads and they’re now taking too much of my time. Only gave 3 stars for the annoyance and the fact I haven’t won anything yet. Not even something small that would convince me. As of now I’m only playing out of boredom mixed with faith/hope. Without faith/hope I would’ve been... gone... a long time ago. It’s all we really have these days.Show lessShadow 24/7
Obnoxious, Screaming Ads
I’m a fan of PCH, but I’m on the cusp of deleting the PCH Lotto app. The ads are out of control. I’ve received up to three ads in a row, some as long as 40+ seconds (30 second initial ad, then a slow-counting “5” additional ad on the next page). Some ads utilize manipulative, tiny Xs to close the ads. But due to the tiny size and placement on the screen (if they’re visible at all), you’re just as likely to be forwarded to their auto-opening app page.
But the absolute worst offender is that most of the ads jump in, with volume automatically on, and at a screeching, high volume. This happens even when I have my phone on “Silent”, and I haven’t seen any way to change or improve it. My wife is asleep, I’m winding down for the night, and an obnoxiously loud ad comes blasting out of my “silent-ed” phone. It’s to the point that I can’t play the PCH Lotto at night. Maybe that’s just forecasting me not playing the app at all...Show lessBerdiche
Pch
I thought this was a scam for a while but I did an experiment and played every day at work on my lunch breaks and any time I had down time. After playing consistently for about 2 years they sent me a $10 Check along with a crap ton of additional coupons I didn’t order. I have never spent money on Publishers Clearing House. But At least I know now they are kinda legit even tho I still kinda think its a scam. In a sense that yes I did receive ten dollars but it could be a trick to keep me playing and coming back. I have never seen or heard of anyone in there 20’s winning a big prize, its usually the elderly. I know its supposedly a random generated system but Maybe they give the little prizes to the younger generations and save the big prizes for the old people. Makes me less motivated to keep going because of this. Would be more willing to play often if I knew the prizes were being spread along all the age groups more consistently. Hook up an 18 year old or something go outside the box that would be exciting.Show lessmrbangbanger
Hope and Enter
I watched my mom enter Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes via mailing when I was a kid. It was then that I decided I would enter too once I was old enough. I’ve won 8 small prizes over the years, ranging from $5 - $50, and I continue to hope and enter for the large prizes. Entering through the PCHLotto app is easy and fun. I like that I can choose which one I feel like entering if I’m pressed for time and unable to enter them all. I do wish that the sweepstakes did not use the Eastern time zone for their clock. Midnight in New York is only 9 p.m. my time and I always run out of time to enter.Show lessRod(:munch
LOVE PCH LOTTO
I love playing all the games online it’s a lot faster but being persistent now to get all the lotto done online to. I love how you can play keno now to online. The only thing for me is that I wish when you play the scratch off on the keno, that it had the timer on each scratch off you play so you know how much time you have left. Sometimes to it freezes up and sometimes I don’t have any more scratch offs to play because I played them all. So sometimes I have a long time still on the timer with nothing to play. Other than that I love PCH and keeping the faith! Stay safe everyone during the COVI-19. God Bless❤️🎈🎈🎈❤️🙏 Thanks PCH for all that you do making dreams come true! ❤️❤️Show lessCountryroad2020
If you’re playing to win REAL money you’re wasting your time.
Have you ever won money through PCH? Do you know anyone that has won real money through PCH? It’s a company that makes money off of selling your info. You put in your full name and address, as well as your email to open an account. They in turn sell your info to online marketing agencies(most of the time foreign agencies) giving them a nice profit and leaving you with spam emails and more ads and junk to your mailbox. Go ahead and do your own research but they have NEVER payed out REAL money or prizes. They keep you intrigued with games and the possibilities of extravagant prizes just so you keep playing to view ads for them to make revenue. You are welcome to do your own research or a simple google search instead of complaining that you have been playing for years and have never won anything besides tokens to claim gifts that they have never given out.Show less!!!!!:;()!!!!!!
