Update: RECEIVED A GIFTWARE! They must be behind because it says it is a payment for the month of May, and it is now July, but better late than never. Just FYI it came in an email from The Virtual Rewards Center. I would like to reinstall the app, but now it doesn't recognize my email. I need an invitation code please... No incentive, no contact info.

Got my first gc, took a long while but got one in the end. Definitely will keep the app.
★★★★★Brenda Chambliss· Aug 10, 2026
It runs quietly in the background and only notifies every once in a while to open it to keep it running.
★★★★★Armand Beaulieu· Jul 21, 2026
It's easy to set up. Hasn't interferes with my internet connection. The payment hasn't come yet. Still though a passive income without little to no hassle. Update, found out my Trend Study on my phone wasn't collecting data, the app said it were running but settings showed it wasn't. I have since then been using Trend Study extension on my laptop & it has been working fine. With Trend Study app on my phone maybe it was because of Pogo running at the sometime.

Im not sure how people are getting paid, or claiming they were paid in under a month. I've been running it for over a month and no payment. Just constant problems with websites loading or even allowing me because of the vpn. Internet speeds were garbage when it was running

I have contacted your support too, but I have not received my reward even when I have kept my app active almost all days in the month it's a scam

Trust & Safety: The app emphasizes a privacy-first approach with encryption at capture, transit, and rest, and allows users to pause, withdraw, or delete data. It requests a broad set of permissions (location, usage stats, foreground services, VPN, accessibility) and operates as a background service with explicit user consent for VPN and accessibility features. While these practices highlight user control and consent, the breadth of permissions warrants careful review of privacy practices and compliance with applicable data protection standards.
