YouGovPulse for Android
Keeps making my wireless connections to drop out
Blocks internet on some wifi. Have to pause it to get online and can only do that for 15 mins at a time
Poor app. Privacy invasion
I knew an app like this would affect my battery but wasn't expecting it to be this bad. Can't even switch it off when I need to prolong battery life as it just restarts itself.
Since upgrading to tablet with newer Android, this app stops all internet traffic!! (When running, other apps report not connected to internet)
Only issue I have is when the app is running it can stop you connecting to public WiFi networks, though otherwise no problems.
Totally unstable. My Galaxy S7 Edge overheated, crashed and went into continuous boot up. STEER CLEAR.
Latest version stops all data working
Made my phone very slow.
Great for making a couple of pounds
I have missed out on the monthly payment on all 3 of my devices as this app just seems to stop itself. I have tried reinstalling in my Samsung Galaxy S6. My phone tells me it is active and running but your website tells me it is not. Please fix this out.
Now requires permanent connection to their VPN which I don't fancy doing. I don't mind you sending some data but I'm not going through your vpn.
Once you sign out you can't get back in or get a code to get back in either, it's a complete waste of time
You need to go to the yougov website and you can retrieve it from there.
No faculty to recover login code. I give up.
Disconnects the tracker even if I have my phone on, it'll never get to a day even though cumulatively, the hours it has tracked adds up to at least a day. Bye app bye. (Update), got 300 points, gonna keep it running another month to see if it continues to work.
Been ok until recently when it just keeps disconnecting, I missed out on this month's rewards on both my phones as I didn't know it wasn't tracking. I manually restart it but after a while it pauses again.
Crashing my vpn. Will have to disable.
Since the latest update, the app keeps on saying there is an action I must perform to stay as a participant but it doesn't say what the action is.
Doesn't even track anything. Had it a while and just always paused
Constantly stops working at the moment
I'm giving it one last chance - every time I look at it, it has paused, I think it's a con to get your information without rewarding you
I love the idea of the Pulse project. but it seems the app freezes alot. I have had this installed since last Thursday and keep freezing. I just checked it now and it says ts only been tracking for the last 14 hours even though I haven't stopped it since i downloaded it.
I have been using this app for about a month but it keeps stopping all the time so is a complete waste of time and space.
Will not install into my Samsung Ace 3
Its ok now its been updated properly
Been using this since I was invited to. Have it running on nexus 4 and 7, also on PC. They were slow to apply points in May and June but this doesn't happen now and the points are added quickly at the beginning of the month. Is a great way to top up my YouGov points by 300 each month
Crashes every day. At least once.

Screws up networking. Deleting.
This thing crashes every three seconds that you are logged in to any online program. Worst app ever. Sort it out yougov! (moto g 4g)
Crashes all the time.
Joined in February installing on both PC and Mobile. To date 800 points should have been credited but only 200 have (and that was three months late). Emails and online messages to Yougov about this have been totally ignored.
it doesn't send out annoying adverts and I recieve my credits monthly :D people who dont recieve tgem havent done it through the profile
AVOID AT ALL COSTS...Invited to use this app. Not received any credits, nothing at all. All (multiple) emails to support are ignored, no response what so ever. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. TOTAL RIP OFF.

After being invited, the app does not actually provide any credit, yet logs and reports all activity. Additionally it seems to lock the phone with a blank screen for around 10 seconds after screen timeout.
Made my phone go at a snails pace

Can't tolerate a non-stop notification on my notification panel any more that wont go away so I'm uninstalling. Pity as it worked fine and the extra points were great.
