This was posted on Timebucks today:

Tap Research   "Tap Research has informed us that they are no longer supporting Desktop and Web based applications, they will only be supporting mobile apps from now on. This means that unfortunately Tap Research will not be returning to TimeBucks, along with every other site like ours. But there are still plenty of other providers that are just as good such as Your-Surveys, Peanutlabs, RevenueWall and TheoremReach!" .

I sure hope this is only for foreign platforms, as they said the same thing about Paypal when PP stopped servicing their survey platform.  Paypal still is available here in the US for alot of the sites I frequent so maybe in Australia TapResearch is limiting their availability to mobile only.  Fingers crossed we don't lose this money maker!!  :sad1:

Not sure I believe this unless I see it on this site.  I guess we will know if it stops working and since you said this we will know why and that is most likely will not just start working again.

TAP is the only way that I can now earn my 5 cents. I hate taking surveys on a mobile and would only be able to take it on my tablet, not my cell.

I am on grabpoints and used to earn mostly taking tAP surveys. They no longer offer tAP and I have been able to earn taking Peanut Labs but it is not as easy nor as much fun.  I do not know why grabpoints eliminated TAP.

But since FC is not mobile friendly then you would not even be able to do the TAP thru this site. I have never heard of grabpoints.

Yeah, it's definitely still here on FC, and good grief, I sure hope it stays on desktop! That really just doesn't make sense that they would switch to mobile only. I'd think they'd lose a whole lot of takers. I don't want to use my phone either, if it actually happens, I'm not sure I'll continue with FC, unless they get some other lucrative way to earn.

It makes total sense.  They do what is best for them.  Maintaining websites is time consuming. Doing a site for just mobile would be easier for them. And for most people doing surveys on just their phone is easier.  I am a member of another site I do well on and it use to be mobile only but they sold out to another company and now are desktop only.  Doing on my phone was easier.

FC is not mobile friendly, but you can still access it on your mobile phone. It is possible to do TAP on your mobile phone. I was doing it a while back when I first started on FC.

Who can answer this question?  If you access FC on your mobile phone or tablet, and you are in your own WiFi IP address will you be in violation of the TOS?  How about outside your home WiFi IP address?  Anyone know the answer?

I don't think I have ever tried.  Some surveys are mobile friendly.  I have done the paid to click on a mobile device before.

No you won't.  You IP can change sitting in your home on your computer.  You can not only access this site from different devices but also different states.  It even states ON THIS SITE that your IP address can be different from day to day.

You absolutely can use your cell phone for FC. Some things don't work, like PTC, but there's specifically a Mobile/Tablet section under Earn Cash. There are lots of mobile apps available for download. I've gotten paid to download and play games on my phone through FC.

All of the Tap Surveys are mobile friendly. Not sure about the others. Don't know when you last did PTC on mobile, but that's no longer possible. You can only do it on a PC now.

I never done that but I thought about it.

It was several years ago. I am not sure at that time TAP was even on here.  Or if it was I did not do it.  When I done it my computer was down so I done that on my mobile just to add to my total.

Maybe PTC was available several years ago, but unfortunately it's not any more. I tried to do it on my mobile when I first joined and it wouldn't even let me access the page. Got an error saying that PTC must be done on a PC. It'd be nice if I could do it on a mobile though. Would make things easier for me.
