### 2/5 — No good until it stops crashing

*2024-06-25, version 2.6.3*

App keeps crashing

### 4/5 — PLEASE UPDATE

*2024-01-09, version 2.5.8*

I can’t open the app after opening once, it keeps force closing.

### 1/5 — Poor business structure

*2022-12-19, version 2.4.3*

I set up this app over a month ago and there is no clear instructions on what to do. All the jobs I apply for just says applied and that’s it.The company has not shown account activity at all so I’m not even sure what to do or if this is even a real company.It worries me when companies like this have no activity whatsoever because it makes me think they’re only out to get your personal information. for future reference don’t offer an app and call yourself a company if you don’t plan on dedicating 100%

### 3/5 — Well..

*2022-12-04, version 2.4.2*

I have applied for every task so far and it has taken almost three weeks to do a survey or interview!! I wish I could say something positive but there’s nothing more to really say…kinda disappointed

### 2/5 — Always crashes & never get responses

*2022-11-05, version 2.4.1*

First of all I apply and never get responses but there are very VERY few surveys or video research panels to even apply for and when there are I always apply but I NEVER get a response whatsoever. Then on top of that when I first download the app it works fine but when I come back and try to open it the next day or even a few hours later I can’t open it at all because every time I do it just crashes. Every single time except for when I first download it. So what happens is I end up having to delete and redo load it and log back in just to check each day for any new surveys or to see if I have gotten accepted for the one or two I have applied for. Which if I would ever get accepted or even had more to apply for I would just deal with the whole delete and download again just to open it up, without complaining but since I have to go through all that only to never get accepted or have surveys to apply for it is SUPER annoying!!! Fix the app please and try to get more studies for us because I dont understand how this app has 4 stars at all when there is never anything on it and it never works correctly!

### 1/5 — Faulty Application

*2022-09-23, version 2.4.0*

Every time I try opening the app now after signing up, it just crashes. I can’t even open the app anymore—it gives me the loading screen and then quits the app. Won’t be using it because of this.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-09-20, version 2.4.0*

Everytime I open the app it doesn’t even launch. I have to delete the app and download it again. I applied for a job but didn’t hear anything else from the app. I tried getting back on it hours later and it doesn’t work! Not worth your time don’t even bother.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-09-20, version 2.4.0*

I went through the whole process of signing up but after that every time I try to open the app it just shuts down

### 1/5 — Waste of time.

*2022-05-15, version 2.3.3*

I don’t have anything good to say here, at all. Seeing as how nothing has happened not one single time, there’s literally no opinion to have other than disappointment and time to uninstall so I’m not wasting data or storage for no good reason.

### 2/5 — No action.

*2022-02-28, version 2.3.0*

The profile is easy to set up and it sounds like an easy way to do some Market research. The pay seems better than some other apps. The downside is there are no “gigs” ever to apply to. I’ve had the app for over a month now and have been asked to apply to one. Which I haven’t even heard back about.

### 1/5 — I haven’t made any money at all

*2021-12-28, version 2.2.7*

I have not made any money at all I have a plied for all the surveys I have did everything and I have not made any money nobody has got back to me nothing

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2021-12-09, version 2.2.6*

I just got on this app yesterday. I don’t see any point to it. There’s literally 5 things to apply to and one isn’t in my language. I applied to 2 and I guess waiting for response. Honestly I doubt one will come. Super boring and super useless so far. I’ll keep it another day but that’s the max. If you want people to be intrested you should be exciting from beginning. Can’t be boring from the start and get exciting later. Everyone will have lost interest by then. Most boring app I’ve encountered

### 4/5 — Such a nice moving app

*2021-11-29, version 2.2.4*

I love how clean and quick this app moves the only reason I took away a star is because it seems my age (39) keeps me from getting gigs

### 4/5 — Not to bad

*2021-11-03, version 2.2.4*

This app is unique. It is definitely worth it and you define make money I only gave four stars because the jobs are very far and few in between. I’ve had this in my phone for a year and have only completed 3 I think? Maybe 4 but I apply for all the jobs that come up when I see what I’m eligible for but a lot of the times when you apply they don’t even get back to you . So overall it’s worth it to try I just wish there was more opportunities!

### 1/5 — Total scam!

*2021-10-17, version 2.2.3*

I have applied for numerous interviews and haven’t been selected with no reason given or notified that I wasn’t selected. You can’t make any money here.

### 1/5 — Pay by PayPal or Amazon?

*2021-10-17, version 2.2.3*

You must be kidding? There’s no crypto currency payment option? It’s 2021 people. No Apple Pay? Why should anyone have to wait a week to be paid? What other conditions are you tying up into this? This app needs to be heavily reworked, it’s ancient.

### 1/5 — Can’t Sign Up

*2024-12-20, version 2.6.7*

I have downloaded the app multiple times. I enter my name & photo to create an account. Each time a code pops up and then the throbber never stops.

### 1/5 — Never any missions for me to do

*2024-08-09, version 2.6.4*

When there is I always get disqualified or just not chosen so idk

### 1/5 — Sold my phone number

*2024-02-19, version 2.6.0*

Within 24 hours of verifying my account I went from one spam call a month to multiple per day. I’ve gotten a single $2 application in the last two weeks which was never responded to, but I’ve gotten at least 100 spam calls. Avoid at all costs.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2024-01-21, version 2.5.9*

For some reason that app just constantly crashes whenever i click on it

### 1/5 — Steals your info then crashes everytime I try to launch

*2023-08-28, version 2.5.4*

This app is a great idea and would be awesome if it actually supplied me with jobs other than two 5 dollar opportunities. It asks WAYY too much personal information and after putting it all in all it came up with was 2 jobs. The two jobs aren’t even worth the time that it takes for the 5 dollars each and to add to this, now after I try to open the app, it crashes and won’t even lead me to the Home Screen. Don’t waste your time with this app. If you’d like to sell your personal info you’d get more elsewhere. 🙄

### 1/5 — They won’t pay

*2023-06-27, version 2.5.1*

if you want to earn REAL money then join SURVEY SPIN it’s the BEST survey site I have ever used… if you enter my referral code 5W31YC I will get 40p and you will get a QUICK 80p survey AND we will get 10% of each others earnings. you can’t cash out til you reach £4 BUT I manage to cash out half a dozen times AND after every cash out you get £1.60 for FREE towards your next cash out so I recommend you cash out as soon as you reach £4 , lots of different payment methods to withdraw to , check it out and don’t forget to use my code.

### 1/5 — Can’t use it

*2023-06-18, version 2.5.0*

Every time I try to open the app it closes automatically. I haven’t been able to use it.

### 1/5 — Used app for 3-4 weeks

*2023-06-17, version 2.5.0*

Used this app for 3-4 weeks now and absolutely nothing. I applied to 3 postings they put up but still have not heard anything yet….

### 1/5 — Crashs To Much

### 5/5 — New to this app

*2024-10-01, version 2.6.5*

I am very excited to see where this takes me..thanks

### 5/5 — App closes out before I can do anything inside of it plz help

*2024-09-27, version 2.6.5*

Please fix this bug so I can use this app plz

### 5/5 — Methinks this app is a total waste of time

*2022-08-23, version 2.3.9*

I’ve had this app for over 2 weeks, I open and let it run for more than 1 and a Half hours. I do this same process continuously every single day and ever since day one when I download the app I have never been accepted for a gigSo unfortunately I would have to give this app only one star because Apple store will never give us the ability to give zero stars or partials

### 5/5 — I get paid!

*2021-11-01, version 2.2.4*

I got the app about a month ago and I’ve already made $60. I got $30 to test a game in development for 30 minutes and another $30 for a quick interview for using Google docs (which I’m sure everyone uses). This is the first app that has actually paid more than .01 for a survey and other apps be havin payouts at $50 which I never end up making. Get methinks!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2021-03-12, version 2.0.7*

Probably one of the best in the App Store for ease of use and getting paid

### 5/5 — Me Likes

*2021-01-08, version 2.0.1*

I didn’t think I would get chosen to participate in a study as quickly as I was.  When the money hit my PayPal account a week later I was very pleased. 
Me Likes  Me Likes  Me Likes  Me Likes  Me Likes 👍🏻🤙🏾✊🏾🤘🏼

### 5/5 — Legit app

*2021-01-06, version 2.0.1*

Good app.   Wish there were more studies, but otherwise it’s good 😃

### 5/5 — Review

So far so good. I’ll keep u updated.

### 5/5 — My personal review

*2020-11-06, version 1.9.6*

### 5/5 — App fixed

*2020-09-19, version 1.9.2*
