Those using swagbucks ???

Commercial before every replay of the video keeps happening except for SBTV and EntertaiNow

I ran SBTV fine. Everything else just spins and spins and hangs...

Some ads are problematic. I always start mine in the morning (I have insomnia so "morning" starts between 3am and 5am most days) and run them until they finish (oh, do I miss the days of SBTV running all day and all night with hundreds of bonuses). Some days they run super smooth and some days they are almost painful (x out of every. single. ad. and every. single. video. has an ad). They've actually been pretty easy the last week or so, which means I am probably in for a world of hurt soon....

I am an insomniac also so I will keep this in mind. I am normally awake between 3 & 5 but I am on my ipad reading. I don't think I can run the apps and be on the device doing something else...correct?

I need another 100 sb to hit my 2nd goal, so I tried doing surveys. I've spent the last 45 minutes not qualifying for any of them. Now I remember why I don't bother.

Just when I think I am done with surveys (because of experiences like yours) I'll hit a good one. Today I successfully finished a 200SB-incredibly rare for me!

I have to get up every night for the dog or myself If I get up after 2 am (midnight Pacific time) then I go ahead and start my SBTV app. It seems to work better earlier, but maybe that's my imagination.

 

[disneychrista]

I am sure it is not your imagination. Less people are up clogging up their network. Back in the days of unlimited bonuses, I would start SBTV up before I head to bed and would wake up to 100+ SBs.

Just got into this yesterday... thanks to all for the tips on this thread.

I have put SBTV and Entertainow on my phone and I can run those while on wifi... super easy. I guess I have been lucky because they just run and run without my really having to do anything.

I have found the surveys to be a bit frustrating but I have a lot of down time when I can't be doing anything else so that actually works out OK.

I don't think I'll ever get to the point where I can pay for an entire vacation with this program, but every little bit helps!

Can anyone tell me if watching the videos on my phone is separate from watching them on my computer? Am I allowed to accumulate SB for both, separately? Are there separate limits for each?

Thanks all!

Don't forget the other apps. sbtv you get 36 a day EntertaiNow 10 a day. Then there is lifestylez, movieclips, sportly, and indymusic. They each get you 10 for a total of 86 from apps. (Plus bonus rounds if you get lucky)

The apps are separate from the videos on the computer. The videos on the computer say you can get 500SB a day from watching but I've never even come close to that. I honestly don't even think it is possible lol. However, the videos in the regular swagbucks app count as SBTV videos, so if you max out SBTV there is not point watching in the regular app.

Ooh thank you for those other apps! I'll go look for those now.

And good information on the computer videos being separate. Thanks so much!

AND, good to know that the Swagbucks app videos count toward the SBTV videos.

This is the kind of information I can't find on the actual SB website!

Thanks again!

There is a Discovering Alaska tour guide offer for 50SB available on the home page. I signed up this morning and it credited instantly, plus counts towards daily goal. It took about 3 minutes to sign up.

Is anyone else having trouble with the apps? Mine keep saying it can't connect and to check my internet connection but if I switch to perk, it runs just fine. I don't believe I have an internet connection problem.

Yeah, I was running Swagbucks TV and it quit on me.

Looks like the site is down again. Been happening a lot lately.

 

[Limes96]

Yes, I think it's the site being down again. No apps, no desktop.

 

[crazymomof4]

I think my kids are in cohoots with SB.....
They (kids) love having ALL the household broadband for internet gaming!

 

[DisneyMandC]

Yup, site is definitely down. Can't get the app or SwagButton to work to put in the new swag code. Hopefully it's not up before noon.

Thought that's what it was when none of the apps would work. At least I'm done with sbtv. Trying to finish the apps early so I can read with my kindle app.

 

[CandyCane31]

Down as well for me, apps and desktop sight both. Probably going to use this as an opportunity to check out PerkTV...

 

[wendow]

Back up for me. Is there a code for the US? The one I put in said not valid in my country lol. I am new to SB's so I had not seen that before.

I just checked the swagbutton and it says there isn't one right now.

I just checked the swagbutton and it says there isn't one right now.

Thank you! I had gotten an alert about one but it is Canada only. So just wasn't sure if I missed seeing the US one.
