    Cool. I'm on my first week with them and trying out lots of uses, so if you want a first hand review at any point, feel free to pm me.

    On a swagbucks note however, does anyone know if there's anything to indicates your participation and progress with the survey week? Or do we just have to get on in good faith that they're logging it until we decide to redeem and (hopefully) get the rebate??

    On my phone, when I am in play store I clicked on my installed apps/all apps, click on the app itself (Sportly etc) and on the right hand corner there is the "three dots icon", if you click on it there is an option to tick/untick for auto update.

    That's brilliant loranius, many thanks for taking the trouble to put the pics up as well :T

    I know it won't be there for everyone but worth a look:

    I just found the 30 second "Love is all around" song on Indymusic (and was able to favourite it)

    worth checking - hopefully a few others will see it.

    That's 2 days in a row it's popped up though it's not on my phone - I posted about it yesterday morning, is Swagbucks being nice or won't we see that video for another 6 months?

    Warning If you are not sure about doing this then DON'T DO IT

    Swagbucks say they are bringing back the favourites soon anyway.

    If you do this you will lose your stored favourites and it is only advised if you are confident with android phones!

    You have to copy those in loranius' link to your phone's SD card - I do this by downloading them into a folder called apps onto my comuter and transfering them by USB, open them by going into your phones SD storage and run them.-

    Again if you are not sure about doing this then DON'T DO IT

    In your android settings there is an option under apps where it says allow phone to run third party apks, tick that so that you can install apps which are not on play store. (If your phone is rooted you may not need to do this)

    Then uninstall all your existing SB apps.

    Now download and install the 6 apps from the link (I got them from the google drive link as I am not sure how to get the ID for the other website). You just click on each app, download, and when you swipe to notifications it will say xyz downloaded, click on that and it will automatically install.

    Login and set your favourites as before.

    Make sure all the apps are set not to update in play store.
