Did a search, but nothing came up on here for "VoxPopMe".

Has anyone used any of these? I've downloaded all three this weekend. They're apps you have on your phone and you can earn a few pennies. Here's what I know so far:

VoxPopMe: My favourite at the moment. It gives you tasks relating to a brand (e.g. Mothercare). You just video yourself (15 - 60 seconds) saying what you like and dislike about the brand and then upload it. I've done all the activities that were available this weekend and have earned around £4. I just don't know if the activities will be very plentiful?

Field Agent: Sounded promising - you let it work out where you are and it has little jobs for you, e.g. checking out displays and packaging. I haven't earned anything with it, though, as there were no jobs anywhere near me, even though I was in a busy part of a major city.

Clic and Walk: Same kind of thing - gives you tasks but I think these are more likely to involve taking photos. I've completed the sign-up ones which are fun things around the house, but still haven't received any "real" tasks.

So I'm not sure if they will be any good, but I guess it can't do any harm to keep them on my phone and get alerted if something crops up near me. I'm worried that these tasks will be very few and far between..!

Anyone else had any experience with any of these? Any other similar ones that can be recommended?

    You can add Roamler to the list.

    I used to do a fair few tasks for Field Agent and you can earn £10-£30 a month without too much effort, Roamler is less lucrative from what I've seen so far but £10-£20 monthly should be possible. A lot depends on the area you are in.

    Field Agent is quite "seasonal" - you can wait weeks for a task then several come along at once.

    Great, I've added Roamler - thanks!

    Think I'll give StreetSpotr a miss based on your glowing review..!

    Will check out Rewarder now.

    I'm using an iPhone, but I'm sure most will be suitable for Android, too. I know that VoxPopMe definitely is.
  • After a few days playing with all of them, I have to say VoxPopMe is my clear favourite so far (and no, I'm not affiliated with them and I'm not providing any referral link!).

    Quick, easy and fun and I've had one or two surveys per day to do which have been 20p - 60p. Since downloading three days ago I'm at £6. Worth a look!

    Just checked and it doesn't look like VoxPopMe is compatible with my Android device.

    Thanks anyway!
    I will keep a look out for any others suitable and post here :)

    That's odd. My wife has an Android device (Samsung Galaxy Ace) and is using VoxPopMe without a problem.. I guess there are different versions of Android OS and maybe you've got an older one? Maybe if you check for updates and download a new version it might work?

    Thought I'd give you a quick update.

    After a few weeks, I've continued with VoxPopMe and Roamler mainly and, to a lesser extent, Clic and Walk.

    VoxPopMe remains the best by far. In three weeks, I've made £11.67 and they're actually fun to do. My wife does it too, so we've made nearly £25 in a few weeks. Strongly recommend it to everyone!

    Roamler is also quite good. Lots of activities to carry out, but mostly unpaid (they just contribute towards your XP).

    Clic and Walk is alright but I can't get it to alert me when something becomes available so I have to remember to check it. The activities are few and far between, but I've made a couple of quid.

    If you're going to download just one, it has to be VoxPopMe. It's brilliant!
