Comments on Nielsen Meter Companion for Android

★★★★☆ Ryan Emsley · Sep 11, 2025

It's been awesome getting a free 15 to $17 check every month just to wear a monitor it's been great and plus the opportunities to win the sweepstakes I have one yet but there's always a chance. I just wonder I was looking at the app, and I started it last year in September so September 2024 was when I started it, so I've been doing it for a year now, and it makes me wonder how long does this last I don't have any paperwork or anything on it like that says how long this is going to last IDK

★★★★☆ Andrey Thorpe Jr · Sep 10, 2025

Nielsen Meter Companion is okay because it helps track what you watch or listen to for research. I like that it’s simple and runs in the background without much work. But sometimes it feels unnecessary since it doesn’t do much for the user directly. It’s more for surveys than fun.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐

It will not let me install the app. It keeps popping up with an error message saying that it can't download the app. How do I start participating and wearing my meter if I can't install the app. Please help.

★☆☆☆☆ Liberal 12thMan #FDT · May 19, 2026

Nielsen as a company is very professional. There is no good communication. They don't call you when you both agreed on a time to call. They call you multiple times a day and no part of the conversation that was had between the customer and them is documented. Here is the big picture. It's not worth it, it is a nuisance. I wore my meter thirteen hours out of the day for an entire month. And they had to audacity to send me an eight dollar. Check.
