GfK Digital Trends App US for Android
Why do I need to be reminded that you guys are tracking my every move. These recent updates are causing more problems than ever
For God's sake, PLEASE get rid of the stupid icon in the upper left corner of my phone!!! It's pissing me off!!!
Icon is annoying and the app keeps malfunctioning. I've had to uninstall and reinstall so many times its ridiculous.
I don't like having the reminder there 24/7. Also I do believe it's causing my.phone to malfunction.
I was loving this app until the last few updates made it unable to work properly. Now it won't accept my pin code, even though it's the same one tech support gave me. When I was finally able to 'login', a new update was released that just erased the whole process I had went through. If it wasn't for all the free money I receive when this app actually works, I would've uninstalled months ago.
Very good until the latest update. Received email saying GFK not receiving feedback from app. Called. Given pin but got message unable to complete registration! Sent a screen shot. Tech support called, but not on my phone number! Then they emailed me to call them again. Did that and was told tech would be in touch! Received new notice to install and did that. Tried to open app and got the same message as before when I entered the pin - crazy! UPDATE: Sick and tired of having to uninstall and reinstall this app multiple times per week. GFK needs to fix this!!!!!
Suddenly my code doesn't work and it's costing me points. Have entered it over and over, says it can't be processed. Emailed tech support --no help there.
18% of my battery consumption is by this app today. I love the program, but this is not worth the trouble.
For people in the survey business, they are not concerned about what their users hate!
Haven't been able to download the upgrade. The app has been trying to download for over two weeks now. I hope I'm not losing points!

It's been updating for almost an hour, I'm going to give up.
Update won't accept pincode and there does not seem to be a way to generate a new one.
Latest update caused an error saying the app couldn't download it.
Tried to give it a shot but it drains my battery. No purpose as you can't do surveys from it. Not worth the points they give me.
Hey, I've had this for awhile and I love it but since the update it asks for a pin code to which I don't have it. I'm on my android tablet. Please help I enjoy my points and not getting all of them. Thanks
What info are they collecting? For what use? And of course, it drains the bAttery
I do not like the fact that I just got brand new phone and app drains so much battery that I keep my phone plugged in most of the time.
The app drains phone batteries because it is constantly trying to GPS locate your phone. They claim it's not noticeable but that's completely wrong. The policy doesn't disclose exactly what information they collect... App passwords? Personal conversations? We don't know. It also shares data it collects with 3rd parties "pseudononymously" which means theoretically it can be traced back to you (other programs have had this happen in the past.) Seriously, skip this app.
This app doesn't work, click on the survey button and nothing happens, and none of the other buttons work, will be uninstalling this app.
Hate the fact it is always searching for my location and draining my battery...
Worst battery suck of all my apps. Time for a rewrite, developer team. :(
the reviews are bad on the battery how do I uninstall this apt I don,'t need any problems on my tablet besides I can't figure out how to download it on my tablet don't need any problems on my laptop
In 45 minutes my battery went from 90% to 80%, all while my phone was in my pocket and not being used.
Drains battery AND I got a call from GFK saying they haven't been able to collect data and I don't get points...been draining my battery daily for MONTHS. WTF?!
As others have said this is a battery hog! The only reason I even have it still installed is because btwn my phone, tablet, computer and surveys I have 100 cash out in less than 6 months time
This app is seriously ridiculous with how much battery it freaking uses
I never received any surveys on it. I would have to go to the actual website for my surveys
Drains battery so I uninstalled
All I ever had was the message "there are no surveys available" worthless waste of space.
Battery Drain
It completely drain your battery not even worth the points you get from GFk
Use huge amount of battery. The pc edition makes Web browser very slow!
Uses more energy than my screen? Ridiculous app that got uninstalled
Constant location requests is a battery killer. Also location listing on Fb wrong
What good is this app? ....
Can't get to work. Worked at first but now won't accept code

Yes there's an icon, but it doesn't bother me...I've gotten used to it. Plus the money I've made having the app is worth it. The app has NOT affected my phone's performance or battery.
