Kind of slow

The app is a little slow, and it takes some time to sync the shops. Also now the pictures do not display correctly when uploading to a shop. The images are too crowded & compressed to identify easily.

App or Website does not work

It seems like a great app to accept gigs, but the app does not work. When you click on assignments it just loads. Also it will freeze your phone. I also tried on the website and it does the same.

What a helpful all in one tool

I like the GigSpot app. It really helps me stay organized with my current jobs. I can also look up paystubs between different clients. My only complaint is when it resizes my pictures taken on my IPhone 16 plus. I cannot view them properly. I have made a complaint twice, but I still have the same issue. The pictures come out super imposed in the app, and all of my thumbnails are illegible. I have to rely on my memory in the order I took the pictures when I want to insert them into my audits.

i don’t like it

have you sign up for fake certifications on jobs that you’ll never get.. takes you through an obstacle course which leads to no outcome just to get a task… i recommend another app

Happy Shopper

I live Gigspot. The App is easy to navigate and easy to search various places to pick up Mystery shops. Highly recommend.

Question

Has anyone actually gotten a payment from these guys! I did a very high paying job and invested 2 weeks of my time to this one job only to be turned down saying my video isn’t what they where asking for when I did exactly what I was supposed to do! I reached out after to see if they could at least offer me the gas $ for driving there, and nothing! Not to mention you have to deal with these apartments and places calling and leaving vms all the time because they are doing their jobs to “follow up” because they think you’re an actual apartment seeker!

Like the other review said..

There is nothing really in the UK. I have two available on the app to do, one in London (I’m in Scotland so that’s a no) and the other one is over 45 miles away. I’ve already uninstalled it

App

Glitchy all the time

Can’t login

Haven’t been on the app in a few years so I thought I try it out again. I don’t remember what my password is so I went to reset it. Didn’t work. Okay I changed it again. Still can’t sign in. Well I guess that’s it.

Job section jumps

Job section jumps and constantly gives an error message when you try to open the jobs and sometimes opens a different job then the one you click on

Glitchy

Very glitchy. My reports get lost when I press “submit” after long hourse of answering questionnaires.

Out $200 for a job, no reply from GigSpot

Did a job for Mercantile and they still have not paid and it’s been more than 30 days. I’m out $200 for a job I’ve done it took my time out to do and neither gig spot or Mercantile has gotten back with me after multiple attempts, please do not waste your time or you will have to get a lawyer like me.

Bealls

Very nice store has lots of different things not found in other stores. Very unique shopping experience.

Frustrating

I am a full-time mystery shopper and depend on this app for my livelihood. Whenever I open it up, the screen just jumps around for and unreasonably long time before I can open up any of my jobs. And often times it crashes when I apply for a job and when I open it up again, the job is gone.

App needs work

I always get paid but the website works better than the app. App is trash

App not working

When I open the app it stays on the loading screen with the logo thing bouncing up & down. It never loads

App no longer works

The app stopped working about 5-6 days ago. I notified the company and was told to use the website. Have you considered fixing your glitch?

A little buggy but decent

Update… the latest update introduced a bug where you can’t see the job board or your account info. Messaged them a couple days ago but haven’t heard back.
Not sure why, but they often use red text and blue text to try to highlight text but it’s impossible to read because it’s on a grey background! Sometimes task have to be done at a specific time but they don’t always make it obvious (some task they do… but not all). Sometimes jobs don’t save. Sometimes the app will freeze as you’re switching apps to check details and you need to restart the task. But overall the tasks are fairly well explained. If you like stressful work for less than minimum wage then this is the app for you! If they have a problem with what you submit they will let you correct it as opposed to rejecting the task.

Not many options, not always paid

I’ve completed jobs and have been paid fairly, but have also run into where they flag the simplest smallest thing and use that to not pay you, essentially getting you to work for free. There’s no arguing with them on it or ways to provide more info after. Recently I was denied due to not typing word for word the prompt they wanted me to use even though that’s what was implied and I was not paid due to “not following the prompt”. I did, and now I wasted around 2 hours of time and my gas for nothing.
