Ratings and reviews

updated review: I cashed out on 6-7 and 7-26 and haven't received either payment. I have emailed customer service multiple times since June and haven't received any response. I have had this app for over 3 years with no issues until now. 3 months later account is still under review and I still haven't received 2 payments. Very disappointing, hoping they pay me and fix whatever the issue is but after 3 months I'm starting to think they are no longer in business.

seems mostly abandoned at this point. I've used since about February of 2022, I used to swear by this app. then they began a new program, ending the one from prior and the new/current one takes forever to get points. so this same 10 points a day for years now with no changes. but at least it was instant redemption. however, about a year ago, it began taking 2 days to receive, and now I've been waiting 4 days and support doesn't exist. not even a confirmation email. disappointed big time.

In the past this app has been great but last few weeks right as I got to the point I could cash out I got this "Account Access Under Review" popup, which prevents cash outs. I've reached out to support twice and they haven't even responded. as far as I can tell nothing has changed about my account outside of being ready to cash out, so the situation seems pretty dishonest. app sucks battery worse than anything on my phone so I'll be uninstalling.
