I got some google play credits that are expiring soon and have no idea what to spend them on.
Books on Google Play Books
Mostly the ad removal options or pro versions of some apps.
What….what kind of credit?
You download the app and sends you surveys. They pay you for the surveys in Google Play Store credit. You can spend that on apps, in-app purchases, etc.
There's way better apps for making money than this. I've made about 3000 dollars on survey apps.
... Which are?
Qmee, Attapoll, Survey Spin and Leger opinion. It's a tedious way to make money and you get disqualified regularly but I really have earned a lot just pegging away. .
Traditionally it was my hard budget for in-app purchases, but that's dropped off and I've been buying movies. I've found that I can buy a movie via Google Play, share it with my Movies Anywhere account and then share it with my Vudu account. Movies on Vudu simply look and sound better, they run at a higher bitrate. They're still not as good as UHD Blu-rays but they're real darn close.
I used the credit on a Google One subscription. It gives me additional Google Drive space which I can share with my family.
So, I have no idea what your patterns, habits, and just general life is like, but I actually use it for some subscriptions. I currently pay for Sync for Lemmy using it, and also for a mass texting app.
Are there any mobile games you like? You can use it for some iAP's :)
If there is an app that you've been eyeing but it is a little more than you'd like to spend, maybe use your credits on that!
That's how I paid for 1Password 7 a few years ago lol
Whoa! How do you generate enough play credits to pay for some subscriptions? Please share the wealth of knowledge 🙏
I'm not the person you asked, but I find that making searches within YouTube generates a few (relatively high value) GOR surveys. I also get them when I walk near shops, but much lower value, especially as I usually didn't go into the shops it's asking me about.
In total, I've earned £134.39 since 2014 - not loads, but enough to mean I rarely pay real money for an app.
I might put it towards ad removal for Sync for Lemmy, haven't fully decided yet.
I paid for RIF with mine back in the day lol. Might do this now too
That's my plan too. I have about a tenner of GOR to use, and that seems about the best use for it.
I like SeriesGuide for tracking shows and movies I watched, so I bought Series X unlock for it.
Other apps I've been happy with purchasing was swiftback up for backing up and restoring apps on rooted phones once Titanium Backup stopped getting supported.
Power Amp for listening to music.
1DM+ for downloading stuff from websites. It detects what are videos, pics, etc.
Hermit which makes lite apps. You can do that with Firefox or any browser for free, but I've liked hermit enough to get the pro version.
Got solid explorer and mixexplorer which are file managers.
Then there's some decent games like Stardew Valley you could buy.
And when you don't know what to spend it on you can donate money to some of the apps you bought, since some have in app options to send them donations.
What is an opinion credit? You get, like, robux for completing surveys?
You get Google app store credit for doing very short surveys. I've bought a few things with it
i mostly spent my credits on gacha games lol.
I just spent $20 of it on Sync for Lemmy. Well worth it.
Just spent it all on Sync, I guess.
Aside from that, usually ebooks
Same here but audiobooks.
Rent or buy movies
I have an iPhone so it goes to my PayPal balance, which I used to pay for a lot of different online subscriptions so it just goes into the pot. It's $2 once every couple of months so I'm not exactly getting rich off it. When I had an Android I got a lot more surveys and I used it for premium features in Play Store apps.
Disney+ subscription
I buy books and TV shows. If you haven't seen The White Lotus I highly recommend it. I have a million book suggestions too if you like.
I use it for some apps I'm subscribed to. I use Rocket Money for my budget tracking, so I rarely ever have to actually pay real money for it.
I would mostly spend them on in-game purchase (mostly for arcaea) but you can buy apps/games with it.
I used to use it on Stadia games, RIP. Bought Cyberpunk for only $15 on release day.
I mostly use it to buy ebooks, handy for when there's a sale on
I had the same problem and I just bought A Beautifully Foolish Endeavor audiobook because I'm on a 3+ week wait-list for the audio book from my library.
BaconReader Pro, Pokemon Go items, The Room games, FL Studio Mobile. In total it has paid me $90.69 since 2014.
I used to spend it on IAPs for Pokémon go, but I've kinda stopped caring about it as much recently. Not sure what I'll start spending it on now. Guess I'll decide once I've save up a decent amount
Mostly light novels for me. Though I did spend 10 bucks in the past for the Joey app.
Sadly not available where I live
OctoApp and golden eggs in egg inc.
Twitch streamer subscriptions. The rate at which I spend credits is higher than the rate at which I earn them, but I'm really happy every time I get an ad-free month on Twitch :)
I buy annual subscriptions to pokemon home with it, and microtransactions in games I play if I have extra. I would be buying pokemon home anyway, so it's a nice freebie
