Google Opinion Rewards is an app that rewards users with free Play Store credit in exchange for completing surveys and submitting purchase receipts.

It has now reached 100 million downloads on the Play Store, indicating just how popular this app is among Android users.

How it works

The Google Opinion Rewards is an easy-to-use app in which people answer the surveys, share purchase receipts, and gain free Play Store credit. This earned credit would help in making in-app purchases, downloading apps, and even subscribing to YouTube Music or books on the Play Store.

While to some users, privacy concerns might be a thing to consider, earning free credits might be well worth it.

Opinion Rewards progress and availability

Opinion Rewards took four years to double its downloads from 50 million to 100 million.

Probably the reason for such slow improvement can be explained by the fact that the app is available only in 30 countries. This milestone, however, proves that the application is still gaining momentum.

Opinion Rewards benefits and trade-offs

Google Opinion Rewards is an effortless way to build up free Play Store credit. Added to the rewards program through the Play Store, one can combine both, and before they know it, build a large credit pool for digital store purchases.

However, in return, the Google Opinion Rewards would require users to give up location history and access to map data. To some individuals, it might be well worth it, while others would not touch the app because of just that very reason or several others related to privacy.
