Fusion should go mobile!
« on: February 23, 2011, 12:49:56 pm »
With the new influx of smart phones and wifi gadgets, I could see Fusion benefiting from going mobile somehow. A realtime app would give people the chance to work on their Fusion earnings when out and about. Waiting in lines, waiting for an appointment, while you are eating lunch, there are a million times during the average person's day that could be made productive by giving them a fully mobile app to use!

The problem is that even if FC had a mobile version, the offers still wont.  We can't force our advertisers to spend time and money making a mobile site.  It's true that there are some offers available that are designed for smartphones, but they are few and far between.  All in all it is currently not worth the effort to build a mobile version of FC, although this may change at some point in the future.  For now, check out the mobileXpression offer (requires a smartphone and pays $5).  Also, you can visit and post in the forums from a mobile device without too much difficulty :)

There are plenty of devices that can more than handle the advertisers ads, but FC itself will ban the accounts that try to use them due to the IP restrictions of the account (as one of my first affiliates found out the hard way). A simple tracker app that would allow you to access your account on a fully functional mobile device would be sufficient without having to convert anything to a mobile format.

That would be great to make a few dollars on the go. But FC would have to find some way of making sure each user account is unique and not just the same person with many accounts on the same mobile network. Maybe allow FC members to link their accounts to a maximum of 1 mobile device, only then would they be able to do stuff

yea it would be quite annoying to filter out all the cheating that would be made possible from this.

I don't use or pay for mobile, so I don't know if it would be good or not. How it is now works great for me.... :thumbsup:

I am too certain people would cheat even if f.c did go mobile.I think it would be hard to track offers and get approved as well. Can you imagine being at the end of a survey and oh no your signal dropped.At least with some surveys if something goes wrong on your computer you can refresh your browser.

I also think going mobile in part would be good. The surveys take to much time and need not to be hurried. That being said, if FC would be able to allow mobile responses to the forum I think that many would respond and that would help those on the go be more involved with the forum at let their limited, at home time, be spent on surveys. I do not know if this is too complicated, maybe connect the account to one phone with the ability to change the number once every 6? months or so. FC how about you kicking this around with you IT guru(s) and see how hard this is. Also maybe other restrictions like must cash in once before you are able to use this/ post 30 times in one month to use this?

A birthday offer would be a great addition! I agree that it would need to be an ad/website to visit in order to get the points (since they can't just be free!), but only available to each person on their birthday :)

If it goes mobile, which smartphones would be able to support it or would it be simply laptops?

This isn't exactly "going mobile", but there's a new offer from Nielsen paying $3 for installing their app on your iPhone or Android... check it out in the 'new' category!
