For the past 5 years, I have been the proud owner of an iPod Touch (1st Gen), iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4s and an iPad Mini. I have downloaded, installed and experienced all types of applications. When I first began downloading children's applications on my iPod Touch, for my daughter. Afterwards, I began downloading apps for myself. Not long after, I bought an iPhone 3Gs. I began downloading games, while also checking out the New & Noteworthy. When my Sony IR video camera was damaged, I began searching for apps that could somehow replace what I had lost. I had originally purchased a video camera to film my daughter's development, to send to family members overseas.
As time passed, technology was expanding further than most people had expected. There were many applications being released, which could do various types of things:
- Filters
- Blurr
- Zoom
- Frames
I began wondering "there seems to be an application for everything, I wonder if there's any which can make money?" I did a search on Google "make money with apps", which produced some surprising results. I downloaded and installed almost every app that I could find. After a few weeks of trying out a few of these applications, I began doubting their descriptions. I opened my browser and began another Google search "apps that make money", which returned an even bigger result.
Only recently, have I really began to experience and understand which applications make money but you have to do something to earn it. Some apps were offering various types of rewards, in return for your completing a task. Some apps offered an advertising space where you are able to sell your photos and images, receiving a certain percentage of the sale(s). I have decided to post about the applications which actually work and helps your to earn rewards which maybe redeemed for cash and other various items.

- On the right side of each task, advertises the points. E.g +5 or 5+. These points MUST be inside of a yellow box/button, to receive these points. If the points are inside of a grey or blue box/button, the tasks has already been completed and you will NOT gain any points for doing it.
- Add, Tips: This option is usually found within the Application section, after you have watched the video, downloaded and used the app - then you can use this option to leave a brief description of your experience. Other members open your tip to read it, at the bottom right-side of the app is an area where you are able to select 'Useful'. If a member selects your tip as useful, you receive 5 points.
Apps: Members are able to watch videos about certain applications, they can then download them and afterwards, add their own comment about it to the AppTrailers application.
Videos: You are able to watch videos uploaded by other members, where you will receive +5 points for doing so. You can 'Like' the video and share points via sharing options, but this does not add points to your own score. You can upload videos for other members to view, they receive points for selecting watching and so do you. You don't receive points for uploading videos, but you will receive 5 points when members like and share your video.
Features and Promotions: As previously explained, these are limited due to location-based companies and services.

Downfall: Once you have watched all of the applications videos, member uploaded videos and trailers, there aren't too many more videos to watch. Luckily, members upload 30 or more videos a day.

Almost similar to AirTasker, Field Agent™ is a mystery shopper/service checker's task. Field Agent is a system that connects people who need information with people who can provide it. It begins by someone requesting specific information via our website. We broadcast the request to people in the field, who we call Agents. The Agents use a mobile device to return the needed info, which they get paid for. Available on Application and Website.
The process begins by someone requesting specific information via the Field Agent™ website. They broadcast the request to iPhone users in the field, who are called Agents. The Agents use their iPhone to return the requested info, which Field Agent™ then pays them for.
Despite recent reviews about Agents not being paid, it is illegal for ANY business in Australia to conduct ANY business with persons and not pay for services rendered. Any such activity would lead to the business being shut down (immediately) due to illegal actions.
My own personal views have nothing to do with payment or business. I have been paid for almost every task that I have provided work for.

These are the Top Ten Applications that I have made money on, there will be some more to add soon - as their companies are developing applications to make it more accessible for the application user. I have also posted about these applications, as I have earned anywhere between $1.00 to $44.00 I wanted to share these apps with everyone because they are making money for some people, they may do the same for you. I am not endorsing them in any way, I'm just posting what I feel has made a decent amount of money within the first 6 months. Hopefully, you may do better. I only did some of these tasks when I found the time, being a mother of a young child takes a lot of my time - so, it's definitely great to earn some extra cash on the side. Not only that, I wanted to get paid for doing things that I usually do - shopping, etc. I hope this post helps, as there are many outdated articles available.
