I've never tried it. I don't think I'd consider it, either, because of potential malware.
Opinion: 1) a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter 2) belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge
This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

Do not trust them.  They are a scam.

I make it a habit not to download anything.  I have become very suspicious of everything

It really just depends on the app. Unfortunately, some apps are not safe to download.

I normally look at the permissions first, because the creator of the app could get your personal information, or someone could just create an app, a fake app.

I've downloaded some games and got credit for them. I still play a couple of them because they're fun!  :)

Please be careful of hidden malwares, in some of these apps, make sure that you are getting them from credible sources...

Nielson Mobile App  you pretty much put it on your phone sign up for it let it do its thing . You don't get to much you do get points every month. Usually i cash out once every two three months on whatever you cash out for they have a ton of stuff to choose from . Usually around 10-15 dollars. Not much but free and doesn't mess with your phone at all
