Swagbucking into 2015 (Newcomers, please read the first post)

On the general topic of adverts in the apps, it isn't the fact that they are there (especially as it takes a shorter time to earn our reduced Swagbucks), it is the fact that they sometimes crash out!
However...it is a bit of a liberty to get them after each video as seems to be happening to me at the moment with Lifestylz.
It's even more of a liberty when I still don't get any instant surveys nor Encrave.
Nonetheless I still earn around £30 to £40 pounds a month that I would not otherwise have for doing very little, so I'm not really complaining!
Has anyone yet been able to verify the promised bonus Swagbucks we'd get for running beyond the quota? Do new versions of the apps exist for Android that have restored favourites?0 -
I'm getting an ad before every video today so I refuse to use the apps. Previously when this happened I left the apps till later in the day and the ads didn't show. But today I can't shake them.
Still can't believe they had to cheek to say that by reducing the daily amount they are actually giving us more bucks. Still, remove repeating ads and I'll accept lol.Swagbucks since July 2012 - £300 Paypal, £330 Amazon
Neobux since 22nd June 2013 - $3600, 1398 referrals0 -

I haven't had any bonus SBs but not had any updates to restore favourites yet. I too would be interested if anyone is getting a bonus chance.0 -
It took me 90 mins to complete Lifestylz.tv, which usually takes me 40 mins. And I am running the old version with 10 sec favourited videos. It's obvious that it's not profitable anymore.
If they made the apps completely passive, that is, I can leave them overnight and hoard points, like Perk, I could give it a go, but like this it won't be long until users will start leaving.
I am considering running some passive sites on my desktop instead (more on this later).0 -

Try Movieclips & Indymusic as they are more or less advert free for me, (I haven't checked Sportly), the other 3 are all the same - advert riddenDon't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive0 -

Long time lurker, first time poster on this thread so first I want to say thanks to everyone for all the helpful tips in regards to SB.
But in relation to your question, I've got the bonus sbs on the apps for the first time today. Currently on 38 bonus sbs using EntertainNow and it's still going0 -
Hi, I received 76 bonus swag bucks on Lifestyle yesterday:)May £10 a day £0/£3100

So far today I have run sbtv - no bonus and am now running lifestylz which is on 40 bonus points and still going.
Yesterday between sbtv and lifestylz I clocked up 160 bonus points. I don't expect it to happen everyday but its nice when it does :-)
I am fairly new to SB, please could anyone tell me if its allowed to use two mobile devices at once? While lifestylz is still running bonus rounds I'd like to run the others on another old phone, but am not sure if that's allowed?
thanks0
