    I give that a go didn't know if we could run both :)

    Good luck, hope it works for you. It does seem, though, that different people experience different things from Swagbucks!

    What do you mean by that? Do you think they have borked the old apps with static ads so that people move onto the new apps?



    No I cannot get the old apps versions to complete their cycle - message comes up
    "unable to make network connection".......


    their is nothing wrong with any of my other connections on Android or Windows
    previously I used your posting of the old versions with favorites very successfully --- but not now


    I am holding off going for installing the other 4 new versions until I am sure all is lost with the old versions (or they re-install the favourites option with the new versions)

    I can still run the old apps, but I need to x-out an ad every video. I was wondering if installing the new version was a workaround not to have the ad displayed.

    In principle I have no problem with losing favourites if I get a bonus in return, but on condition that the app be totally passive and I don't have to bother to do real work. I have other sites that pay more than Swagbucks and require real work. I can't be bothered to micromanage my smartphone for 45p a day or a couple of pence per hour. I only do a couple of surveys to hit my daily target and that's it.

    To be honest, NOSO not working at the moment is largely irrelevant (for me at least) as Watch is providing 60 SBs! And the Swagbutton Watch is also working. Long may it continue.
    Now all I need is for the Instant Surveys, that are supposed to be coming back, to appear for me



    sorry quiksand
    I' m having a senior moment here
    how is Watch providing you with 60 SB 's ??
    all the 1's and 2's added together ??

    Exactly. I'm seeing 13 different categories with between 1 and 6 playlists in each. Each playlist is averaging out at around 5 to 6 minutes. Takes a while to get through them, granted, but it only entails a click every so often. Also, touch wood, I'm not seeing many adverts.
    Btw, forgot to mention that I am running the old apps and (again touch wood) I've been relatively free of ads for the last week. Those that I am seeing are generally not crashing or are only appearing very rarely.

    I am currently at 89 points for SBTV...

    1) Link posted by Ciaccino earlier: http://toolbartv.swagbucks.com/ it works along side Watch, so you can both at the same time.

    2) With Watch, above the video, it says "watch x more videos", as soon as the x drops, you click the next vid in line to watch, you don't need to watch each video in it's entirety.

    757614 is quite an easy task for an easy 16 sb if anyone's interested- you just have to put in keywords for short (30 second) videos.

    This new watch thing where you have to watch play lists... it's meant to be passive (it runs through all of them)... but mine needs shooting on every time. It's driving me mad. And I can't actually see the vids running... just a black screen. Running Firefox

    Can someone help?
