Those using swagbucks ???

Yes, it is! You can earn 36 SBs per day running it, plus whatever they offer for bonuses that day. I can't take credit for this since someone else was smart enough to figure it out on here, but if you go to the Home category and save the "10 second tips" videos to your favorite, you can just replay those over and over again in your favorites to earn the 36 fast. I'm so glad I read through this thread to figure this app out! Now I'm mad at myself for not knowing about it sooner!

How do you save it to your favorites?

What devices do you use? Does this apps works in other phones that are not Iphone or Android?

Perk only has apps for iOS and android. No Windows-based apps.

I have a variety of old phones and iPod Touches running the apps. Old Samsumg Galaxy phones mostly for the androids with a couple of Moto Gs thrown in there. iPhone 3, 4 and 4s for the iOS phones.

I don't think that the newer updates of the app allow you to save favorites. If you have an older version, swipe the video to the right when you're browsing the list of videos. A red heart will appear next to it and it will appear in your favorites list.

I've saved the shortest videos to favs w/ the other apps but i can't seem to do it on SBTV. On the other ones, you go to the list and slide the title to the left and a red heart appears. I am using iPad and the same thing doesn't happen on SBTV, it just clicks on the video and I don't even see a Favorites category on the list. Am I missing something? Sry, new to this

UPDATE- ok so I must have the newer version of the SBTV app and that's why.

NEXT question-- why, some days SBTV is "passive"- runs by itself, moving from video to ad to video automatically. And then some days, it "gets stuck" on the ads and I have to X out of the ads to make it move to the video. Wondering why the app is different for me from day to day. Same for you?

I just downloaded SBTV to my phone maybe last Thursday or Friday and I was able to save them as my favorites. I just tried it again and I can still favorite videos. There are actually some new 10 second clips now too. I'm using an iPhone if that helps. That stinks if it doesn't work for you since that makes it so fast to earn the 36 SB!

maybe bc you are using the phone and I'm using the iPad?? not sure.

Perhaps. Seems like it would be the same considering it's the same OS, but what do I know about this stuff haha.

Loving PerkTV at the moment just added another cheapo phone to the farm! Family Dollar has the Net10 Wireless package with LG Optimus Fuel phone for 9 bucks until the end of July! Up to 3830...just started the farm again!

Great poll question today!

I was surprised at the response...I thought it seemed a little low.

You can still do favorites on all of them even if updated by swiping. When I updated, it said that in big print.

From what I've been reading they took away the Favorites category from the IOS and Android apps for a short period of time. Then recently added it back.
When I go to the list on my SBTV that starts with "Featured Videos" then Recipes then Entertainment then Fashion and so on. There is no "Favorites" category. Does that mean that at the time I go the app it was during the period when the Favorites category was pulled?
In all the other apps (EntertaiNow, Sportly, Lifestyle) I have a category for Favorites and am easily able to add videos to that list by swiping to the left. Not so with my SBTV app.

 

[JenzyHP]

Hmm... I don't have another update so I assume I am at the newest for SBTV. I have a favorites folder.

 

[crazymomof4]

I got the SBTV app on July 9th I think. Maybe 10th.There are negative reviews out there from that time period complaining about the Favorites category. Here is a sample............

What a joke This use to be a great app...back when I started using this back in 2011 I used to get 50 sb for mobile on sbtv. Then it dropped to 36... now no favorites, app crashes left amd right ads lock up, just not worth the time anymore. I'd rather waste my data on more enjoyable videos for points with another company at this point. Removing all Swagbucks apps.

Tired Favorites are gone, adds are buggy and freeze even my S5. I used to love swagbucks, but I don't know if I can keep doing this for such a low payout


They took out the "Favorites" option and now it takes FOREVER to earn swagbucks. *edit - down rated from 3 to 1 star for constant crashing

----------------Wondering if I could remove the app then reload the most recent WITH the Favorites category. Anyone know if that would mess up my account in any way?---------------------

Yes, I experience the same thing. About 10-14 days ago, I was about to scream because all of the apps kept getting stuck on either a Game of War or a Sweepstakes ad. Over and over and over. I was stubborn and stuck with it, but it took forever to reach my goal each day. I did report the Game of War ad. Both those ads have now been pulled, and my apps have been running as smoothly as can be. They very rarely get stuck any more at all. The SBs pile up much more quickly now.

I've been lucky in scoring a lot of bonus SBs every day, usually on 2 or more of the mobile apps. Yesterday, it was 42 bonus SBs on Sportly, the day before I think it was 36 or so bonus SBs on SBTV. Today it's been 22 on EntertaiNow and 8 on Lifestylz.

I think I have given up on Swagbucks, I just can't seem to get much in the form of points no matter what I try.

I had an unusual earning today: I did a search and was rewarded 14 SB with a Collector's Bill. The bill is marked St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, Ireland. It seems they did Collector's Bills for certain holidays and if you collected four of them you got an extra 14 SB bonus. I'm confused why I got a St. Patrick's one in July, but I'm not complaining.

I was hoping that we could just do the most recent update and the favorites would come back (I had favorites before I stupidly updated!). I tried that and it didn't work. I would love to know the answer to this, too!

OK so you DID try updating and didn't get the Favorites back. I'm going to contact Swagbucks about this. I will post if/when I get a response.

Did I try deleting the app and reloading it? I updated mine a month ago and get favorites on all the apps.
