Don't have a smartphone just a unsmartphone. I was thinking of getting one to use Ibotta or others like that. You can make money just from receipts. Find them on th3 ground and use it I know people do that. But if your paying 60.00 a month like my son is not worth it.

Except that when you agree to the TOS you agree to only upload your own personal receipts so I would not brag online that I was using receipts I found on the ground. I don't know what an unsmartphone even is but usually you have to have a smart phone capable of downloading apps and use the camera thru the app to submit receipts to the places that pay you to upload receipts.

I love my smartphone.

I finally had to get a smartphone a few months ago because my eye doctors wouldn't even let me keep an appointment unless I call from the car when I get there (sheesh smh ) I heard of other places doing this too so I figure if this is going to be the new way of doing things.. I might as well keep up.

I love my smartphone. I don't think I would ever go back to using a regular cell phone.

We are on Total Wireless. 2 phones for $65 a month. I am not sure what 1 phone would be, but that includes unlimited text, talk and 15 g. data. They use Verizon towers and have good service. My smart phone is very basic, and cost like $80.

I broke dovvn and got a smartphone about a 1 1/2 years ago. It is not an Apple I-phone, as those cost a fortune. It's a ZTE, android, 5.5 inch screen. I got it on Amazon vvith a GC, on sale for $80.

I am not willing to do surveys or anything else on my smart phone. I have a desktop and a tablet. Those two are good enough for sites like FC.
I am with Spectrum Mobile which is owned by Charter. Spectrum bought Time Warner. It all gets confusing.
Spectrum offers a great deal. I get unlimited text and calls plus one gig for $14 a month. However in order to get this deal, I must have internet with Spectrum which I do.
I also am paying on a Samsung Galaxy A1

Are yoy aware that you can buy an unlocked used smartphone on Ebay for less than $50 and use it on Wi-fi for free?

I also am paying on a Samsung Galaxy A10 e, a really good android that I got through Spectrum for $6.50 a month for two years. After paying off this phone, I own it.

You do not need a "smartphone" to make a phone call. A prepaid $10 a month phone will allow you to make a phone call to your doctor office from your car. Besides that unless your doc is in a huge complex you could probably call from home and tell them you will be there for the appt and you will knock on the door when you get there. My dentist does the same thing ::) and when I call they come to the door and motion for me to approach the door so it really would not make a diff.

I bought a refurbished smartphone from tracfone for $10. I did not add any minutes to it or a phone number and use it with wifi only for apps.

That my friend, is using your head. Congratulations. I have an old Android phone I make calls on with Wifi and Google Voice.

:cat:
No Sim, No 4G ?? Not able to use in car then if it's wifi only, right? Iphone? Does your iPod function?
-
I love my smart phone too. I could not be without it.

I have had iPhones for a few years now, i never buy the newest one but I do have a good one and I love it. We gave up on land lines a while back. My husband had a blackberry for like 10 years until 1 of our daughter's replace her iPhone 6 for a newer one and forced him to get the old one for himself.

A few years back I bought an unlocked one on ebay just to find out it wasnt't unlocked and no way to contact the seller.
-
I don't like iPhones lately.

I'm in a love hate relationship with my phone. It seems like its on the verge of dying or having indigestion from being over used

I don't begrudge anybody who makes that decision as it is a personal choice and really each person has the right to decide for him or herself what they are willing to disclose - but I have to tell you that I have been making a lot of spending money using smartphone apps. Several people have commented on different apps both here and in other threads.
Just this past weekend over the course of an hour or two I earned $50 in Amazon credit using a single app where they ask you to record short 5 minute videos of your decision making process as you shop for a specific product category in a grocery store. You often have to shop for (or evaluate) specific brands and they have several questions that you HAVE to comment on in order to qualify for payment, but most of their tasks pay anywhere from $5 to $25. On Saturday, I was able to do three $10 projects at Walmart and Meijer and one $20 project at Target. In my area, those three stores are all on the same strip within about a mile or two.
Easy money all from a smartphone! Using just that one app, I've earned almost $1,200 in Amazon credit since the summer of 2017.

Congrats to you! I never qualify for those and if I do they don't pay..

i used blackberry smatphones.

I don't have a smartphone. I still have the old flip phone that I started out with 10 years ago. I don't go anywhere and my phone was only used if I had an emergency while out somewhere. It stays in my purse now. My husband has one only because he couldn't hear on the Doro phones. He has finally, after 2 years, started using news sites if he isn't busy and gets the weather every day. Otherwise, only 3 people have his phone number. He really does hate phones. So he takes me to my appointments and I need to call when I get there so use his phone.

Be on the look out, 3G is sun-setting and older phones that use that transmission with cease to work. I had to upgrade to a 4G phone this year, so I am aware, Verizon has set a date but others have already stopped new customers from signing.

I like my smartphone, which I have had for a longtime; and as long as it continues to work I will not be upgrading every time they make a newer one; I keep phones until they no longer serve my purpose and when I do upgrade it is never to the latest model. I am fine with an older model!

I've tried Ibotta don't recommend it unless if you plan trying to buy things they are giving cash back for. Most things I don't even buy the brand of. In fact a lot people seem to have my issue with Ibotta they just don't put out much of a brand you buy to really collect much at all and it take forever just to get a cash out

I thank my smartphone every time she manages to get me to where I'm going. I spent a great deal of time in my former years being lost.
I have zero sense of direction. So to me smartphones are the bomb. :heart:

I don't know what you use, but Wayz is an amazing App for not getting lost (most of the time). One trick I learned is to start your trip from home on Wi-Fi and you save on Data by leaving it off.

Sounds like the company we have and the phone I'm looking at, and hubby has but he's so technology deficient, he still only uses it to receive phone calls. It costs around $42 a month for the 2 of us. He finally learned to use Goggle and reads the news every day when he's not busy. Me? I'm still using the old flip phone and hate it. I only use it when the power goes off so I can call the electric company and/or when I lose cable...because when I lose cable, I lose regular phone service.
I want to get a smart phone because I want to join ibotta since I'm back to being the grocery store person and so I can do some surveys/etc. that are only on a smart phone and so I can send grocery receipts via phone instead of scan and send via computer.

You are always a valuable source of information for everyone. Unfortunately, my tech knowledge is very limited so I don't even know how to do what you suggested. But thanks for telling me. I have seen Wayz before a long time ago, but I guess I didn't know what to do with it. :silly: :-[
I just say, "Hey, Google" and then tell her where I want to go. Usually, she gets me there pretty well; with some notable exceptions. Sometimes I love her :in-love: and sometimes I hate her. :sad1:

He has a 4G but we got a heads up that 5G is on it's way and 4G will no longer be available. He will wait until he has no choice. On some survey sites I've noticed that to do some things, you can only use a mobile phone, no PC or laptop, so I'll soon have to make up my mind on what i want to do. I really do want one for the digital coupons at the stores I shop at and that would be my major reason for getting one because paper coupons are harder to find for products I use. I can't do online coupons. The page doesn't work for me. I've tried different sites to print some but can't. All i get is the site page and nothing works on it.

It is 3G that will become unavailable, not 4G.

I love my smart phone and I do use Ibotta and many other Apps to earn from receipts. Over all the apps I use pay for my phone many times each month.
