Facebook Viewpoints

I just downloaded this app last night when I came across an ad for it on my Facebook feed. When I woke up this morning my first “project” was available which was an 83 question survey worth 1,000 points ($5). It took about 10 mins or less to complete, very easy!! As soon as I was done it asked me to connect my paypal account for the $5 to be deposited. So for now I’m only giving it 4 stars because it said it could take up to 10 days to receive payment. Compared to other survey sites/apps, for 1000 points to equal $5 is a really good payout, and for it to be done in one survey!?!? That’s awesome!! I’m really Hoping it doesn’t take 10 days, because that seems a bit extreme, plus I’m an instant gratification type of person when it comes to cashing out on paying sites/apps. Instant payouts, or quicker payout times would definitely get this app more reviews and more participants. I will update as soon as I receive payment. Thank you!

I downloaded this app after seeing it advertised on Facebook and was given a program to complete almost right away. However, I didn’t have time to complete it right at that moment, so it was a couple days before I was ready to complete it. When I logged back into the app and tried to complete the program, the app crashed immediately when I tried to click on the program to open it. The program was not expired, as it says exactly how long it has left before it expires. It’s still not expired as I type this. I tried checking to see if I needed to update my app, but I have the latest version. I tried refreshing my app, but it still crashed. I tried logging out and logging back in, but no difference. Finally, I decided I would contact their help center to see what I needed to do—except, apparently that doesn’t exist. Their “help center” is just an FAQ page with no way to actually contact them with any real problems, or to let them know of a bug you’ve experienced. What kind of company doesn’t have customer service?? Hopefully a developer sees this review and contacts me, because from what I’ve seen so far, I’m not impressed. I’d love to be able to actually try the app and give it a real review.

Was excited about this experience so downloaded the app and waited and waited and finally about several days I got a notification about a survey. I go on the app and start the process. It was worth 1000 points and would take approx 20 mins so I get started. Initially everything was going smooth. Then about 5-10 mins in I start noticing it’s taking longer and longer to accept each response. Okay so I’m fine with this, didn’t have anything else to do at the time. But then, the app freezes altogether. So I close it out and forget about it. Decide a day or two later I will check it out and what do you know I’ve got the option to resume my precious survey, so excitedly I click resume to get started only it won’t let me resume. Every time I click the button to resume the app closes. I even deleted the app and added it again, but nope all the excitement of trying to answer one survey down the drain.... y’all need to work the bugs out before you get people excited about the functionality of an app that doesn’t work!!

Update: Added a star because I did receive the money, around the 7 day mark. Haven’t had a program since, but I’m patient 🤷🏼‍♀️ I downloaded this app about two weeks ago, logged in using my FB account. Firstly, a lot of people are complaining about the data it is leeching from their FB accounts and phones but don’t realize that if you have FB on your phone, they already have access to that data so that point is moot. It took the entire two weeks to receive a program, but program availability is based on specific requirements that need to be met. I’m a little bummed it took so long to become eligible for a program, but the one that was sent to me made me $5 in approximately 15 mins, which is nice. Once the money is actually deposited into my PayPal account, I will add a star or two depending on how long it takes (it approximates 10 days, could be less and could be more I’m sure).

Honestly, the app is quite terrible. In order to even receive any program, you need to have programs in your area. However I’m in a largely populated area, Texas, yet I’ve only gotten 1 program in the entire month that I’ve had the app. I check every single day if there are any available programs, but there have been none. And apparently there’s no built push notification that alerts your device if you have a program available. They say there are email notifications but I never got the notification for my first program. Other apps that do the same thing offer more ways to get rewards and the fact that I’ve had the app for a month now and only got 1 program is just awful. So in short, this app really needs a lot of improvement for consumers to actually find benefit from this app. Unless you just looking for a quick one time 5$. Oh wait, not so quick, it can take up to 10 days for the money to even hit your account 🤷‍♂️ honestly just seems like a ploy to get cheap data 🤦
