Ratings and reviews

I was initially sceptical but having just received my first £15 payout I'm happy! It hasn't taken long (about 6-7 weeks) and has been mostly fun to get the required 30000 coins. I like the geocaching element and it's easy to really boost your coins playing the games and taking shortish surveys. At the end of the day, it's got me motivated to move and fills my time and makes me earn in spare moments like lunch breaks, TV time etc. It is free money at the end of the day!

Gonna be honest, I thought this app was gonna suck. It doesn't. It is relatively well put together and works well... for the most part. My one gripe is that you can get certain challenges to validate an exact number of steps. The problem cones from the fact that the app doesn't update your steps number anywhere near as often as it should, making landing on an exact number almost impossible. Unless these challenges are changed or made easier (say validate within a certain range).

I completed several games, spending money while playing most. I had over 62,000 coins and then one day while walking on my treadmill, the app said I needed to log into my account again (this was unusual). When I logged in, all of my coins were gone. I emailed support and they offered 500 coins to replace 62,000 and nothing else. You can use this app for walking, but avoid accumulating too many coins because you cannot trust the app or it's administrators.
