This survey app usually pays better than other apps and websites. HOWEVER, there are a lot of regular functionality problems/glitches/bugs. Most importantly is that I can’t switch to landscape mode on the app no matter what I do. A lot of surveys won’t let you advance until it’s in landscape mode or it just won’t work if it’s not in it! I’ve tried making sure my orientation lock isn’t on, still not working. I know that it’s just the app doing this because I can switch to landscape in every other app just fine. Secondly, is there are issues with playing video and sound. This ranges from pressing the play button repeatedly and nothing happening to no sound playing no matter what I do (and if you don’t correctly guess what sound was playing, you get kicked out of the survey). If you can’t continue a survey because it stopped working in the middle of it, there’s nothing you can do. Also, a lot of surveys take much longer than what the app says it should take. Another huuuuuge problem is that I can’t contact support form the app. It says that “I’m not set up to send messages,” whatever that means. So, I would have to go onto the website to contact support. Very tedious. It’s a shame, because this app would be SO MUCH BETTER if it didn’t have these big problems.

Newest update Jan 2019: My iPoll account, along with my QuickThoughts account (same company) have suddenly disappeared along with almost $50 in rewards between the two apps. Emails to support go unanswered. Just another scam by the great folks at Survey Sampling International! Prior: Where do I start? Spend lots of time on a job, submit it, and wait months and months to get paid. They lowered the SH payment from .50 to .25 per item. They deny your payment altogether without explanation. And they raised the minimum PayPal payout from $35 to $50 and then iPoll charges you a fee to get your money (which usually happens several months after you request it). Think it's about time I dropped this outfit. Have much better jobs, payouts, and integrity from the other survey and mystery shop companies I work with. Update: October 2, 2015. I have submitted surveys from the first week in August that are still "pending". I am less than $3 away from receiving a payout and they are stalling. My guess is they're hoping I will delete my account and forfeit the $47+ in there. Customer service is still non existent. They generally don't respond to inquiries and when they do it's a canned response. I'm getting paid within a couple of minutes on some survey apps (Opinion Outpost, Field Agent, and Survey Sampling) but wait MONTHS to be paid by this one. Then they have the nerve to send me emails saying "we haven't seen you in a while". Guess they can't figure out why.

This app is ok if you do not plan on completing surveys for a living, but only when you have time or are super board! The app is user friendly, but the surveys are long and detailed and pay very little. My main complaint would be that they send you emails about surveys and give you a price for that survey, but it’s false! Once you click the email, it redirects you to the app, and forces you to find a survey. It should be when you open the email, click the link for the survey it says available for you, direct you to the app and immediately open the survey that they initially email you about. i.e. I received an email that said I have a survey for $4 waiting to be completed and when I clicked the link, there was no survey waiting for me. I had to look for a survey and that survey was 45 minutes long and paid only $0.50! This is something to do on the side to earn extra dollars for savings account, not to pay your bills! So keep that in mind! True review here...

I would give it -5 stars if I could. At first you earn some decent money but then suddenly you stop qualifying for surveys or they say this survey isn’t a good fit for you right after complete the survey.... called customer service (says all lines are busy and to stay on the line but forces you to leave a voicemail) with your email and everything and they will call you back. (Pretty good set up for not getting a call back) also I should mention that you have to call them because they don’t have a customer service email. After about 15 or more phone calls and messages (wish I was exaggerating) they email me and say they don’t know a record of anything and I couldn’t remember the date because they got back to me 2 weeks after the first call. I ask them to just fund me the money I have in there and they ignored me I emailed the same thread asking again and I haven’t heard anything. This was in the end of 2018. I still have 17$ on there but can’t cash out because there is a limit of 25$ but I “don’t qualify “ for surveys that I try. So basically if you want to waste your time and energy thinking you are going to make money. This app is the one for you. Waste all that and you get nothing but time killed.

I downloaded this app (along with several other similar apps) to slowly earn iTunes gift cards to spend in mobile games. When using this app, I constantly get told by the app that they have a new survey for me. I’ll answer a handful of questions and then they “match me” with a qualifying poll. Sounds good right? Well, I’ve done this about 20-30 times now, and every time it’s the same result. I’ll spend 5-10 minutes answering questions, most of the time the questions are specific about different services. Then one of two things happen, the app will freeze on a blank screen until I close the app (this has happened twice), or I’ll receive a message stating I do not qualify for the survey. Most of the time I’m staring at my phone flabbergasted, since it felt like I had already done the survey they tell me I’m not qualified for. Maybe this app is legit and I am really not the target audience, but this doesn’t happen with the other survey apps and I feel like I’m being conned.
