They take forever to pay. I never got paid from Hydration study. ### 3/5 — Sad *2026-02-20, version 6.4.0* I’ve completed two surveys without getting paid.. I’ve emailed support multiple times with no response ### 4/5 — Worth it *2026-02-18, version 6.4.0* The platform offers online video surveys where you record responses about products, brands, services, and your lifestyle. Usually leading to the fabric app. You get paid per video—I’ve earned $20–$50 for a 15–20 minute survey, which is definitely worth it for some extra cash. Overall, it’s a great experience. The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because getting selected for surveys can be rare. I just wish there were more opportunities available. ### 4/5 — Pretty good app *2026-01-16, version 6.4.0* Overall, pretty good. Payments is very quick after completion, app works well, however very limited opportunities. Maybe a 3 a year at most. ### 3/5 — Problem *2026-01-12, version 6.4.0* The video doesn’t advance after I completed my profile. It says seconds and it’s stuck? ### 2/5 — Took a while *2025-12-02, version 6.4.0* I’ve been doing the screening questions for about two years and I’m JUST now getting into an actual survey where I get paid. I honestly thought it wasn’t legit before this. Hopefully more surveys will come my way. It sucks that after two years I’ve only gotten paid once. ### 3/5 — Never got paid for survey I submitted *2025-09-30, version 6.4.0* I had been enjoying this app and service, but a few months ago I completed a survey I was selected to do right away (submitted video responses to all of the questions), and I wasn’t paid. I wrote the email address provided to try to understand why, see if there was a technical issue receiving my responses or something similar, and I never received a response. Very disappointing. ### 2/5 — Not paid *2025-07-30, version 6.4.0* I have been doing this for a few years and maybe got a handful, but I’m not mad at that because each time I got paid. This last time I was never paid and nobody will return my emails. It’s been a month, hand full of emails and social media emails and no response. I feel they ghosted me. ### 4/5 — Definitely a change *2025-03-28, version 6.4.0* A while back, this app was difficult to be selected for missions, but I really got one and received my pay. Thank You for keeping your word after I completed the mission. ### 4/5 — Thanks mindswarms *2024-10-22, version 6.4.0* Good testing application and the platform is simple to use. I’ve gotten a few opportunities to test with them and only experimented one instance with receiving a late payment, it took longer than expected but customer support was able to help me receive the payment after some time. Other than that one time, I’ve received other payments on time. I try to get to the screeners as early as I can, hoping to receive more opportunities from them :) ### 3/5 — Ok but payments can be glitchy *2024-09-10, version 6.4.0* Rare opps and glitchy but it’s ok ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Reset pw busted *2026-06-20, version 6.9.0* Awful company ### 1/5 — I can’t get a hold of support *2025-12-13, version 6.4.0* Does anyone monitor their email? Website? Anything? My account is frozen on an upload file and I can’t even get the ghost of Christmas past to answer me ### 1/5 — Untrue *2025-11-25, version 6.4.0* I’ve literally never gotten paid for any surveys I’ve done. ### 1/5 — I've had this app since 2018 *2025-10-22, version 6.4.0* I've had this app for the past 7 years and have never got picked for a survey. It has to be impossible. how am i not eligible for any surveys? ### 1/5 — They Don’t Payout *2025-08-29, version 6.4.0* My client completed a gig in a timely manner and as we’ve already passed the listed time, compensation has not occurred. They seemingly got information for free. Not cool, Avoid em!💯🐍 ### 1/5 — Not paid for study *2025-08-25, version 6.4.0* I would love to leave a positive review since I’ve done a handful of studies with them before and it was a good experience. However, I did a study months ago and have not been paid. I’ve tried reaching out a bunch of times and haven’t heard back from anyone. Looks like other people have also had the same experience. Beware! ### 1/5 — Disappointed. *2025-03-25, version 6.4.0* I have been disappointed with Mindswarms since the end of last year. I have not been paid for the completion of 2 different studies. One was months ago and the second one was actually this month. I have reached out to support each of these times, and I received no response. I thought that I at least would’ve gotten a response back as to why I haven’t gotten paid since unexpected circumstances could happen, but I didn’t even get that. Just very disappointed since before any of this happened, I actually had no problems at all with the studies. ### 1/5 — I signed up 10 years ago. Not a single test. *2025-02-20, version 6.4.0* Meanwhile, every other company I'm a respondent for has offered me tests. Considering the arduous process of completing a profile, then waiting and checking for opportunities in filling out screeners, this has been an utter waste of my time and efforts. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2024-10-03, version 6.4.0* I’ve had this app on my phone for a few months now, and it’s a COMPLETE waste of your time. You won’t get selected for anything. It needs to be off the APP store. These people just collect your data and “act” as if you will be selected. It won’t happen! ### 1/5 — Stay away *2024-08-30, version 6.4.0* Stay away from this app. They don’t pay you when you complete tests and don’t answer when you try to contact them. I’ve wasted a lot of time doing tests and they don’t pay or respond to emails. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Interesting Surveys, High Rewards *2026-05-28, version 6.4.0* The survey I just completed was informative and I received a very high incentive by PayPal the very next day - Mindswarms is a 10 out of 10 the very best survey site ### 5/5 — Great of late *2026-02-05, version 6.4.0* Have been receiving some studies and capturing a some $$ check it out! ### 5/5 — The best! *2025-12-11, version 6.4.0* I’d recommend this service to anyone! I applied for a study and the next day I received an invite for Fabric. I literally answered 10 questions via video and submitted. Exactly 24 hours down to the second, I received a $50 deposit into my PayPal! Love Mindswarms! ### 5/5 — The Best! *2025-03-30, version 6.4.0* It’s interesting how there’s a myriad of layers involved in user experience paneling. Mindswarms exudes a synergy of worthwhile brands, superb questions, & more times than not, the most congenial payout process I’ve been blessed to interact with. I’d give them a definitive 5 ⭐️rating. ### 5/5 — Best Survey App Out There *2024-12-12, version 6.4.0* I’ve had Mindswarms and a couple other survey apps install for about 18 months now. You are initially asked for some demographic info - age, income, sex, etc. and then you wait. Eventually you will be invited to APPLY for a survey by answering a short survey about the subject. If your survey answers are a match for the demographic they are looking for you are invited to participate in the paid survey. 10 question, 60 second answers, as you record yourself. That’s it. Wait a day or two and get paid. Pay is usually $25 - $50 though some immersion invitations could pay more. You won’t get a lot of invites - I just finished number 4 in 18 months. That’s roughly $200 bucks for 45-50 minutes of my time. Needless to say this won’t make you rich but can put some extra money in your pocket. I have a couple of other apps that also are not scams but this one pays really well for what you are asked to do. ### 5/5 — Legit *2024-10-26, version 6.4.0* Just got paid for my first time! I was skeptical at first, but it’s not bad. The only downside is you don’t get paid for every survey that you do. You do initial question surveys and if you get selected further than they do video surveys, and then you get paid if you’re selected within a certain amount of time. ### 5/5 — Amazing company *2024-10-12, version 6.4.0* I signed up with them one day and by the next day I had a $50 study. And then they paid out within 24 hours. That was really nice. I don’t think they have very many studies yet but when they do they are good! Great app! ### 5/5 — 100% Worth it!! *2024-10-09, version 6.4.0* Highly paid missions, pays quick and pretty fun. ### 5/5 — Payment is prompt. Just rare to get tasks *2024-09-10, version 6.4.0* They have been prompt with their payments and I usually don’t get a lot of tasks with them but when I do, they pay promptly so excellent service! ### 5/5 — My experience *2024-08-15, version 6.4.0* Some of you may wonder if Mindswarms is legit or not, and this is my experience! I didn’t come to mindswarms to make a LOT of money. It was just a interesting thing I can do surveys and possibly qualify for something that will pay me. You won’t be frequently getting accepted and paid but it’ll come here and there :) I just finished a survey and video screening for Content Creation and it was fun answering questions! I got paid $50 the next day through my PayPal which I sent to my bank account. Don’t expect to be accepted and doing surveys and trials every week or even month but when they do come trust me they’re legit :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
