User reviews

Users appreciate the variety and topical nature of YouGov's surveys and value the reward options, with some successfully redeeming gift cards. However, many face consistent issues including not receiving points after completing surveys, frequent app crashes, ineffective customer support, and problems with the Pulse tracking feature. Surveys can be time-consuming with relatively low payouts, making it a slow way to earn rewards. Overall, while the concept is appreciated, technical and support problems diminish the user experience significantly.

Pros

Variety of survey topics and reward options, especially during election season.
Surveys are generally interesting and relevant to current events and politics.
Users have successfully earned and cashed out gift cards with prompt or acceptable delivery times.
Rarely get disqualified from surveys, making participation more efficient.
Surveys are not excessively long, typically under 30 minutes per session.

Cons

Many users report not receiving points or rewards after completing surveys, causing frustration.
The app frequently crashes during surveys, leading to lost responses and no points awarded.
Customer support is slow, unresponsive, or ineffective in resolving issues.
Pulse tracking feature often fails to register or award points despite being properly set up.
Surveys take longer than estimated and the points awarded are low, making earning rewards a slow process.

Recent reviews

Been a member for several years now. The point pay out selection is great! They now offer a lot more variety with the reward options. The genre of survey topics vary as well so you aren't being asked the same thing over & over...unless it's election season. Overall, I enjoy taking the surveys. it's even cooler (yep, cooler) when you hear the results from a survey you took on the news.

I used to like this app, but i'm getting increasingly annoyed at the constant notifications to enable accessibility for Pulse! It's enabled - there's nothing I need to change, so stop it with the notifications every 30 mins!! As others have mentioned...the number of surveys you're offered appears to drop off as you get closer to earning a gift card.
