I'd like to begin by saying I apologize in advance if this is considered spam. If it is, please immediately delete this thread. There's this new app for android called 'locket' that gives you a penny for every time you unlock your phone. Y'know how nearly every android user has a screen lock? Well, with this app, you get a specific screen lock with an ad on it and get paid every time you unlock it. You may be saying to yourself, wow, just 1 penny? Well, imagine how many times you unlock your phone per day. Lets assume you unlock your phone at least 20 times a day, thats 20 cents a day for doing basically nothing, and that amount will add up. You also get a $1 for referring people to the app. That's not the only reason why I'm advertising the app, but I just think its awesome how you can get paid, albeit not much, by doing nothing. The app is in beta right now, and there's nothing to lose by trying it out. *Steps 1) Click on this link to sign up. Sign up is easy, just asks for email / pass and a few other things. http://getlocket.com/r/?43ae06c8 2) Find the app on google play store 3) Log in to the app using the email/pass you used for sign up Begin adding up. Again, it may not seem like much, but it will add up. Enjoy.
I can make more day trading on the Steam trading card market. In any case pretty skeptical about an app that's primarily based in adware.
It's bull****. Check out this article, which reviews it in detail http://www.androidcentral.com/one-week-locket-lockscreen-app-pays-show-you-ads
do you expect to be rich from it? it's not bull**** but it's just some pocket change, but you're unlocking your phone anyways. I'm not doing it but from a marketer and developer standpoint, it's a legit app.
Only downside I would worry about would be how much extra data gets used by streaming ads to your phone all day every day.
wouldn't be all day, just when you click on the phone to unlock the phone so it would be pretty minimal
Shady app is shady. Did I do that correctly? But in truth, the risks outweigh the rewards. If it was a legitimate and honest company, why not come clean about the hourly limitations? Do you really want to trust a company that isn't honest and upfront about their practices with an access to something that contains so much of your personal information such as your phone? It pays to think before you act. Hence, shady app is shady.
I remember these kinds of things back when I was 12. I didn't fall for them then, either. They work for the same reason email spam works: most people won't bother, but a small percentage will and the creator cashes in on that small percentage of gullible folks. I wonder how much the OP will get via his referral URL? Enjoy the ads and spyware, bro.
