Earning by walking

 So, I come by these apps that will pay for you to walk. And there are plenty of choices. I didn't do much of research on them and while there are some for iOS i.e. Apple iPhones, I don't want to clutter my phone with sketchy apps that might do or not do things. So, I bought the cheapest Android phone that I could buy, since a pedometer is kind of standard in all the smart phones nowadays. And furthermore, I bought a  prepaid SIM also. And I don't connect it to my home WLAN at all, I have for that purpose a whole other device to share complete different WLAN.


I  have some experience with Android phones, but have never owned one. So, I needed to learn about it a bit more. After a while, deleting some unnecessary apps, I finally gathered some recommendations for apps that let you earn while walking.

These three apps I decided to install:

After day or two I installed fourth one, but I deleted it almost right away, since it seemed a bit too sketchy. I can't remember the name of that one.

I'll get more details, when I have used them a bit more than week or two, but right now it seems the there are possible to earn while walking. And I do walk a lot, in a work and I have a dog, so I could earn some extra while doing what I am already doing, with minimal or no effort at all.
