    i had to do the last three days of August on my Kindle Fire and it was AGONY

    that being said im off to try the sbtv app which i got off the Amazon UK store

    It is an old version of the app.

    It will play sbtv videos.

    It will not earn you bucks.

    Swagbucks, themselves, switched OFF the earning side of things from the app about 18 months ago.

    apps did not used to work in the UK until they changed the max values for USA users, including the one on amazon uk did not work as is evendent by the reviews.
    To me it looks like when they changed the values in whatever control program they use, they messed it up and did not re-disable it for other locations. IF it was intended to make them all work in the UK, Canada and Oz i would of thought they would of made a big song and dance about it in their blog posts and news letter etc.

    Should they disable accounts for using the apps... NO.
    We have no way of knowing if it is in error/bug (or intended) that the apps now work. New users would not know that they did not work before anyways. However their t&c does include exploite of errors/bugs that give unintended advantage.

    Would they disable accounts for using the apps, possibly ... i do NOT know, but personally i choose not risk it for now because,
    A) i have 4 pending payments.
    B) i am not brave and would rather wait to see what happens to others accounts.

    Should other users use the apps.... TOTALLY up to them to make their own mind up, no skin of my nose.

    Can't help but try my luck:D

    Just get into the habit of having a computer near you and running something on swagbucks all the time. It soon mounts up. Enable your daily goals (on the home page on the left) and try and achieve them everyday.

    Best of luck!

    Cheers! I'm really into bubblews at the moment so when I get into the swing of things there I might give swagbucks a proper go but until then I' think it'll just be a few SBs here and there =/

    saved the other trial pay game for today the lucien heart one or whatever its called.
    No real surveys & i cant be bothered especially as the bonuses are terrible today.
    Might just stick at target 1. Why the extra effort for 3SB



    Edit - While busy on the computer anyway i have ran SBTV 2 hours and have managed to make target 2 after all. :)
