99,9999% are GPS based surveys for me.

Did you visit shop XY?
When did you visit?
How did you like it?

Maybe it's because I'm in Germany but for six months I haven't gotten any other question. Although once it asked me whether I was male or female.

I'm in the UK, I get one of these around 9am most days, and lately it's been shops I've been nowhere near for some reason.
 
Have you guys still been getting notifications for surveys lately? I'm having to constantly check the app to make new surveys appear.

Still get them on all my various devices with it installed. All of them are stock devices, also, if that means anything.

Just got 95 cents for like 8 questions about Google Photos.
Definitely the biggest one I've seen through accumulating about $50 or so in credit...

I stopped receiving surveys. I never lied or tried to game the system, so I'm not sure what happened.

This thread reminded me that I haven't gotten a survey in a while. Opened the app to see if I maybe missed a notification and saw that it has almost been a month since my last one. I got a survey just a couple minutes later. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just open it and close it a few times. Or restart your phone. Sometimes it hangs for a few weeks then you get 3-4 a day for a few days.

Mine have all been GPS based, usually the "Have you visited this store?" type ones. After someone pointed out that they do make up some stores, I now just pick any that have branches where I've been.
One I do get fairly often because I can travel with work is asked to review the hotel I was staying at (it must get this from GPS too) and they usually give me 50p or so.

I also tend to close and re-opening the app every day, and almost as soon as I open it I'll get one or two surveys pop up.

I just manually opened it only to be told that there were no surveys for me :(. However within a few seconds it then gave me one [oo-er] that earnt me 34p, noice :D.
 
I've had this app for a few months now and every time I get a survey it's just the tutorial survey and I don't get anything for it. Anyone else have this problem?
 
I feel like I am not getting enough surveys. I don't know if it's related to where I live(it's a small city in the US) but I have only got around $4 in total in the last month.

I walk about 5 miles a day in Minneapolis, and I get on average at least one a day of 'when is the last time you went to the following stores...'

Welcome beautful toddler, Madison Elizabeth, to the horde!
Whenever I do this app, I've learned that I can't be on wifi so I turn it off. Today, I had one about The Division from Ubisoft and it gave me a dollar.

Think it's bizarre the way this app works.

My wife has had the same number of surveys in a week than I have had in 3 months, unfairly skewed towards female responses?

No. I think it's just luck from some randomization.
I've only gotten like 6 surveys and I've had the app since last September

Just downloaded it this morning. The first survey asked me if I had any interest in the copper industry. Odd, but I'll gladly take that dollar, thank you!
 
Haven't had a survey in over a week. Recently switched from AT&T and Project Fi, wonder if that's impacting location accuracy?

Are you actually not getting surveys or not getting notifications? I recently switched to Project Fi as well and never get notifications for new surveys anymore, but they pop up once I open the app.

I checked yesterday and just now and haven't had any. :( I used to get 3-5 a week.

Does anyone else have this on multiple phones? I have it on my phone as well as an old phone I use on wi fi. They get different surveys even though is the same account. My old wi fi one seems to get more surveys than my current phone. If the survey is on one is not also on the other which seems weird.
 
What do you guys actually spend the money on?

I take the train and work downtown (on a MALL no less), but I rarely get surveys. Why? Help, GAF!

EDIT: Fixed it via location services. My phone wasn't reporting it's location.

thanks for this thread. just got an android phone recently and this is great. I don't really like spending any money on apps or games, but doing surveys while I take a dump can cover whatever I need. ty sir!

It's worth noting there is an update for the app that fixes not getting notifications.
 
I've earned about $29 dollars since Sept. It pays for movies, episodes of Doctor Who, Luther, etc since i do not have cable.
Love this app.
