1. 5/5Sad

   I’m giving this app 2 stars because I took in to consideration it being my phone service but no I got at&t and even if I’m at my house with WiFi assist as well on I still get the message something went wrong please try again later I come back later watch 2 ads most of the time none because when I do come back it says once again something went wrong please try later this is and everyday thing! So then all my steps I took I’m not getting no credit for because there was an error or whatever then some days I don’t even log back into the dam app and the surveys I’m cool on that I understand for security but honestly ask me the same question like 5 times for the same survey just worded different that’s annoying by the 3rd time around I just put in bs because it’s ridiculous or at that point I don’t even want to submit it so if you want to get this app I’m telling you man just don’t even get it and that’s my honest opinion btw I average about 35k steps a day and I’m not even that committed into it when I know other who are doing double what I am just saying

2. 3/5Legit? Yes. Worth it? Maybe…

   I’ve only had this app for over half a month and have not cashed out or received any rewards yet. My friend has had this app and has gotten multiple gift cards so the app is legit. Since we’re both students it’s always helpful having a little extra something here and there; however, the 5,000 step limit is annoying. I’m very active and usually get at least 8,000 steps/day (it helps to connect to Health if you have an Apple Watch) but since more steps are being counted than just carrying your phone around when you walk, more steps are being wasted too. My friend completes surveys and watches ads to boost the 5,000 step limit but I honestly don’t have the energy or time to put into this app. I’ve thought about deleting since it occasionally glitches, like opening an ad right away or a pop up message gets stuck so I can’t even check my progress, and I don’t like having apps tracking location or refreshing in the background all the time. I may keep as a passive step counter (let it max out on 5,000 steps a day) and limit the privacy settings but I figure it’d take many months to cash in any prizes. Depending on how much time/energy (steps and ad watching/survey answering) you want to invest it could be an easy $10 gift card.

3. 2/5Waste of time after a few recent changes

   I was enjoying the app until I notice a few recent changes. I was averaging about 10,000 steps a day if you factor in the bonus 5,000 bonus check in steps. The app allowed for the first 5,000 steps a day that you actually get without watching adds. If you need more, you would have to watch a 30 second video for an additional 1,000 step increments. Now they have they recently reduced the bonus steps from 5,000 to 3,500 a day and now you need to watch 30 second videos for each 500 steps I want to record that I actually do. So now, if I want 5,000 record steps, I will need to watch around 5 minutes of videos each days. I estimate that I am spending about 8 to 9 minutes of videos a day now versus about 4 minutes before the changes about 10 days ago. You would need to spend about 10 hours total to get to the $10 payout if you start from zero. Luckily I am over 3/4 of the way done, and when I finish, I am cashing out and deleting the app. I have used many apps that pay and changes like this is signaling that the app is in trouble and may likely shut down soon.

4. 1/5Not Worth The Time

   I downloaded this app a few months ago. At first it wasn’t bad. You had to watch a 10 videos about twice a week to increase your paid steps from 5,000 to 15,000 a day. Every day, you could earn up to 5,000 extra points by watching videos or doing activities. I like that the app counts my steps with my watch. Last week the step cap dropped to 10,500 and bonus steps were reduced. Today, the step cap started at 500 and I had to watch videos one minute apart to increase the cap by 500 until the cap locked at just 5,000 paid steps for the day. That is what we used to start with. Also, the bonus points capped at 3,500 points today. This is unacceptable. I was less than 250,000 points from cashing out to know if that worked. I now find this app to not be worth the daily effort to be allowed 8,500 points per day to reach 1 million points to only get one $10 gift card every 118 days. Yes, it’s gift cards for steps in exchange for data. It is not worth it to me to play 15 to 30 videos, sometimes you have to watch up to 4 videos for 500 step increase, one minute apart every single day just for a max of 8,500 points a day. I have deleted this app and do not recommend it unless you don’t have anything better to do.

5. 2/5Forces ads once you’re 3/4 way in.

   You need to take a million steps to make a $10 cash out minimum. Givin that you only need to do something everyday, it doesn’t so bad, if not time-consuming. The problem is that the daily maximum for steps is 5000. After that, the app will no longer consider any more steps to be valid, even if you know you made way beyond 5,000 steps. You can circumvent this by watching a quick ad to increase step limit by 1,000, which in my experience caps out to 10,000. However, the app performs a sleezball move by stripping you of the ability to have your steps tracked altogether. Around $7.50 in, the app no longer began to give me the 5,000 step minimum. My steps would not be converted AT ALL unless I watched an ad, which now only extended the cap by 500 steps. Some step-counting apps like GeoSmile reward you for watching ads, but at least it isn’t mandatory and you can earn a decent amount from watching the ads. This app decides to strip any step-counting ability unless you sit through and watch multiple ads in one sitting (because cap now goes only increases by 500 so you have to watch even more than usual). If you want an app that rewards you for steps, just use CashWalk, CashWalker, WalkWork, or GeoSmile. They are exponentially better and faster at payouts than Million Steps is and you aren’t forced to watch ads to make any sort of progress.
