This app is very buggy. Despite having my phone on, carried with me at all times and in a good signal area, it fails to record trips. To correct this I have tried to add trips manually, however this is infuriating as despite placing the curser in the desired location for a start or end point, it randomly places these elsewhere. A lack of detailed instructions just adds to the lack of thought and support that has gone into this. The value and accuracy of the data collected must be questionable. **Developer response:** We apologise for the problems you've experienced. The app is designed for passive tracking, and manual trip entry is not a task requirement. We are continuously investigating these issues, which often appear to be isolated and potentially device specific. Your valuable feedback will be passed to the development team for further investigation and improvement. ### 2/5 — Hardly works *2025-11-13, version 2.24.4* If I don’t go out for one day and confirm I didn’t the next day it won’t work have emailed about it but no reply ### 2/5 — Battery hog *2025-10-28* The app itself works reasonably well. It’s a littlebuggy. However, it’s a large drain on the battery. So unless the pay rate is good, it may not be worth your time. Be aware as you are likely to need to top up battery during the day, so Currie a charger cable or power pack. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We've noted your issues and our team is actively addressing them. We appreciate your participation and aim for a better experience with future updates. ### 2/5 — IPSOS Great, App Irritating *2025-09-12* I tested this for two weeks; the company organising the test were very helpful and paid promptly, so I would be happy to participate again, especially if it helps to make improvements. The App drained my phone battery quite a lot more than I expected, so I had to be careful to ensure it was recharged before going anywhere. I found it quite tricky to ensure that each journey was registered, quite often only one leg would be and I couldn’t find a way to add information manually. The daily survey was easy to complete **Developer response:** Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're pleased to hear you found our team helpful and that payment was prompt. We also appreciate you highlighting the issues you experienced with battery drain and journey registration; this information is very helpful as we work on future improvements ### 2/5 — GeoQuest invitation £20 for 2 weeks *2025-08-27, version 2.24.4* I was invited to take part in the GeoQuest survey, the survey stated if I had the app running for 2 weeks I would receive a reward of £20. Well fast forward about 4 weeks, no reward and this app is draining my phone battery. When can I expect payment so I can turn the app off? ### 3/5 — Accurate but eats the Battery *2025-06-16, version 2.24.4* Very accurate application but it severely eats into your battery ### 4/5 — Easy to use *2025-06-16* I just finished the 2 weeks and got my gift card the next day after completing the last survey. Nothing too difficult just had the app open the whole time as it recorded my movement. Only downside is it kills the phone battery quickly. Still would recommend for a nice reward. **Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! We're delighted to hear you found the app easy to use and that you received your reward promptly after completing the trial. We appreciate you recommending us. ### 4/5 — Easy to use *2025-06-16* I was invited to take part in this survey and I’m glad I did. The app was easy to download and set up. It recorded accurately. One day I had to enter my own journeys as it hadn’t worked, took a little while to figure out how to do it but not too long. Yes, it was a drain on my battery but I kept my phone in low power mode and it’s only for two weeks and you get a reward at the end. If I get the chance to do it again I definitely will. **Developer response:** Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We're so glad you had a positive experience and found the app easy to use. It's great to hear you would be happy to participate again, and we appreciate you sharing your detailed experience with us ### 2/5 — Frustrating *2025-06-02, version 2.24.4* I thought this app was supposed to work independently in the background but it never picks up any journey I’m making. ### 3/5 — Easy to use and paid quickly *2025-05-27* Trialled this app for two weeks. Very easy to use, slightly annoying that you have to open every day and keep it open. However the daily reminder is useful and, if it is accidentally closed an instant message pops up to tell you! The only major downside is that it uses a lot of battery power. My iPhone 14 daily battery life was reduced by about 3 to 4 hours with my normal usage. Communication with the provider was simple and they are very quick to respond to queries. Trial ended and payment received within a few days. **Developer response:** We're glad you found the app easy to use and that you received your payment promptly. We are also very pleased to hear that you found our team to be responsive and helpful. We appreciate you highlighting the battery usage on your device. ### 4/5 — Survey *2025-05-13* Enjoyed doing this and reward was quick. No problems with app **Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed participating in the GeoQuest survey and that you received your reward quickly. ### 4/5 — GeoQuest experience *2025-04-03* Liked the experience very enjoyable. A few glitches but the team were excellent at replying to emails, sure the issues will be ironed out. **Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! We're delighted you enjoyed your GeoQuest experience. We appreciate you acknowledging our team's responsiveness to emails. We are committed to ironing out any remaining glitches and continuously improving the app. ### 2/5 — Battery hog, bug heaven *2025-04-02* Drains battery about 5% per hour. Full of bugs, and the user interface is very confusing. It records journeys automatically, but if you do click to start a journey, alert says "Please wait while we try to get your current location", then nothing happens – how long are we supposed to wait? If it auto records a trip with two stages, and you delete one stage that's spurious, it deletes the whole trip instead. Creating a trip manually is very difficult. You can click to stop a trip when you arrive, but it may carry on recording your walking around within a building. You can click to stop a trip, and hours later click to start a return journey, but the app may choose to record both stages as one trip taking many hours. The total distance shown in the Trips tab is much greater than the sum of the trips. It may show "Trip in progress" and "Start trip" at the same time. Daily survey asks what modes of transport, but does not include walking as an option. At the end of the survey period, it says you can finish your diary by clicking the button 'Submit diary', but there is no such button. But I did get paid immediately after the second weekend, so if you are able to keep recharging your phone, it's worth doing. **Developer response:** We're glad to hear that you were paid promptly and thank you for your participation. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. The specific problems you mentioned are being investigated by our development team to provide a better user experience. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-05-30* I registered every trip correctly and completed the surveys for each journey starting from home, yet they refused to provide the promised £20 voucher. The app also drained my phone battery heavily during the whole 14-day period. Very disappointing experience after spending time and effort participating properly. I do not recommend this app or survey program. **Developer response:** We're sorry you didn't receive the voucher, which may be due to unmet qualification criteria. We send reminders and offer troubleshooting during the survey. Your input is valuable, and we appreciate your patience. For further assistance, kindly contact our support team. ### 1/5 — Heap of junk *2026-04-15, version 2.25.3* First journey is A to B. Second journey is C to D. Even a complete fool can see that if B and C are hundreds of miles apart, something is missing. Junk. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-12-12* Downloaded this to take part in a 2 week survey. Has all the settings right and location setting was enabled. Received a message from IPSOS after the 2 weeks to say that location tracking was not picking up my journeys yet I completed al surveys daily plus the final survey. Useless so drained my battery for 2 weeks for nothing **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about the location tracking issue. Factors such as GPS signal strength and mobile / network settings can affect the experience. We do offer technical support during the survey, and we hope that our team were able to help you during your participation. ### 1/5 — Very frustrating *2025-11-14* This is one of the buggiest apps I have ever used. It records trips when there are none being made or doesn’t end a trip; cuts out mid-trip; won’t start a trip; sometimes won’t allow me to add trips; tells me to restart phone and app but the problem persists… I am trying to do a survey, but the app is not fit for purpose. **Developer response:** We're sorry to hear about the issues you are having with trip recording. The app is designed to work passively in the background to capture your journeys, so you are not required to manually start or add trips. We understand this manual process can be difficult on some devices. Please contact our support team directly so we can investigate the specific issues you're encountering and work to resolve them. ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-08-27, version 2.24.4* Voucher wasn’t given despite taking part in the data collection and surveys. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-04-19, version 2.23.5* Spent 2 days being told server updating …. Try again in 10 mins ### 1/5 — Not as promised *2024-05-07, version 2.22.11* As reviewed by others I was asked to take part for 2 weeks and after 3 the app stopped letting me input survey information and I never got the promised reward. I opted out and deleted app after 4 weeks. My advice to others is don’t bother! ### 1/5 — Useless App *2024-05-06, version 2.22.11* This app doesn’t work. The functionality is beyond poor. It doesn’t allow you to complete tasks, either because there is ‘insufficient data’ or because the daily surveys are not available. Maybe this because Ipsos doesn’t want to give you the reward so installing a non functioning app means you can’t qualify ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-06-24* The app is a big scam they will tell u that u will get a coupon after 15 of downloading the app and after the period end u get nothing not even a replay from them they just read and ignore don’t believe them they scammers ### 2/5 — GeoQuest invitation £20 for 2 weeks *2026-01-21* I was invited to take part in the GeoQuest survey, the survey stated if I had the app running for 2 weeks I would receive a reward of £20. Well fast forward about 4 weeks, no reward and this app is draining my phone battery. When can I expect payment so I can turn the app off? Thank you I received the payment after contacting you. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We were sorry to hear you had not received your reward. We hoped the voucher might have been located in your spam or junk mail folder, as they can sometimes end up there. If that was not the case, we would ask you to contact us directly so our team could investigate. We also appreciated you highlighting the battery usage. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-03* I love the fact that the app helps to monitor your travel journey everyday. ### 5/5 — Good App however Drains your battery *2025-12-13* Great app and get paid promptly after desired period.

The rewards are well worth it! ### 4/5 — Minor glitches *2026-05-12* I installed the app as part of a 2 week-long survey. After a week, the app stopped recording activity. I tried resetting but this didn’t work so I contacted support who responded within 24 hours, advising me to uninstall/reinstall. I initially didn’t want to do this in case previously recorded information was erased but they confirmed it wouldn’t be. The survey ended & I was concerned the glitch would invalidate my participation but I received my reward within a few days, so I’m happy! Thank you! 👍🏻😊 **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased our support team was able to help you. It's great to know the fix was successful and that you received your reward.
