Title: Just wondering ??
Post by: sbenkoski on April 04, 2018, 09:32:50 am
Do you down load apps they want you to.. ? When a survey asks you to add a app to your computer do you do it ?

I downloaded an app one time and did not receive credit, so no, I don't do that anymore.

I don’t do it.  The only apps I have are the apps I wanted and downloaded on my own.

Not something I want to do, the few I have  are only the ones I want. I don't trust a lot of the  apps they want me to down load.

No, I don't download any apps unless it's an app I want.   Don't trust someone else telling me to download an app that I don't know anything about.

Never! Not worth .05 cents or whatever it is to download any apps that I know nothing about.

Here's one : has anyone actually waited for a phone call from one of these Surveys ? I'd rather take the penalty then wait to talk to Mr./Miss Surveystroker for 30 mins for a buck.

No.  I used to, when I first started doing these types of sites.  I would download something and then delete it after a while.  But the stuff they had me downloading kept messing up my computer.  I won't do it at all anymore.

I recall a period of time that there seemed to be a number of surveys requiring you to download an app.  Or, they wanted you to go shopping at a particular store using their app on your phone?  That one was a couple of years ago, I believe.  Anyway, I didn't trust any of these.  Then, I caved in on one since I'd gotten credit before on one of their regular surveys.  Well, that was a bust, had to make sure it was deleted and never received credit.  Not worth the hassle or worry about messing up your computer.

I don't download apps that a survey requests or the apps that pop up warning you that your computer is at risk if you don't download their app.  Occasionally I've gotten a pop up saying that I am the "fill in the magic number here" visitor and have won $500 gift card, etc.  Those always make me leary too.

I don't participate in those types of surveys - I already have too many apps, etc on my phone.

It depends on the type of app. When I do install an app, it seemed like a lucrative idea at the time. But then, I do not make the money that I would have hoped and thus, I un-install it days later.

NO.  Never have and never will.  I have considered downloading a game before but never done it.

No, I don't download apps on my computer at all through FC because I don't know whether they have viruses or not. I do have userzoom survey tool for surveys with FC on my computer. :clover:

Nope don't trust them and not worth harm that could happen to your computer.

I don't really like downloading the apps, too much potential for it to be spyware. And I just don't want to add one more thing to it. Too much trouble for me personally.

 I just move on to another survey. I never download an app from this site or any other site  in order to take a survey.  As a general rule I do not like downloading any apps unless I absolutely have to and it must be a trusted site.  :rainbow: :peace: :wave:

Nope.  I used to, and I'd have trouble uninstalling them.  Or it'd take forever to install and then disqualify me.  Plus you run the risk of spyware, viruses, and other assorted yucks.  Not worth it.

No it is too much trouble and you don't know how secure they are.

No never have and don't plan to.  I would like to get rid of some of the ones I do have.
