## Description

Donately is a unique lock screen app that allows users to earn points simply by using their phone. Points are earned daily as ads and content are displayed on your lock screen, which you can dismiss to access your device. Beyond daily points, users can gain more by playing games, completing offers, or referring friends. 

What makes Donately truly impactful is the ability to redeem earned points with reputable global charity partners such as the ASPCA, One Tree Planted, Feeding America, and more.
