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

loranius

I have not had any problems running different apps on different phones on the same account at the same time, because my Lifestyles and Sportly kept giving me error messages about how it's not supported in this country, and my dad has been running them for me at home, at the same time as I'm running other apps at work.

My dad has been running different apps on tablets, phones you name it all the time, they are fine also.

Also, when you say you saw in this thread that you cannot run two apps at the same time, it means you saw other posters talking about it, but they don't have anything either from Swagbucks saying they can't do it.

Either way I'm not encouraging or discouraging people from doing whatever they want, it's just that I do not want people to spread false information around about what can or cannot be done when there's nothing official about the information.

I can not find it just now, but I'm fairly sure someone wrote to SB and posted the reply, saying something along the lines that it was ok, but crediting would be hit and miss. But they definitely confirmed it was ok to run Apps whilst doing SB stuff on your pc, including watching SBTV.

Hi kippy

I remember the post you are talking about, someone wrote in asking if they can do something like radio and SBTV and something else at the same time and they said it was fine, but right now we are talking about 2 apps on 2 phones running at the same time.

I don't think we have any official information about this.

Remember when SBTV first came out? Some people immediately said it was illegal and a glitch that it was available for UK and was doing scaremongering in general, and then a few days later SB posted that it was a new app available to us!

Like I was saying, I just want to stop the spread of misinformation which seems to keep happening on this thread.

Wow. I'm actually quite underwhelmed


Maybe that's where they've spent all the swagbucks they've taken off us recently!

I wonder if maybe it has something to do with how the phones connect to swagbucks..
I connect my phone and tablet and computer all through the same wifi connection and my phone apps defo don't credit simultaneously although running the Swagbuckstv 'watch' link on the computer does not affect the app on either phone. One phone app will credit and the other will still play its way through the apps but not credit them.
Possibly if one were connected through a mobile phone line(like having a different IP address), they might work together.
You can always try it out and see how it goes.

I ran 2 phones for weeks and all I found was that pretty often you would have to reply the videos to get them to credit at the same time, in the end I decided it was far faster to just concentrate on one and use the other phone for for better things.

You can run SBTV on one phone and one of the Youwgo apps on another phone, but not two Yowgo apps at the same time. That's because the Yowgo apps are 3rd party apps.
