Pros

Very few, if any. The tasks are easy to understand and get into. You know what's expected of you.

Cons

The tasks are so very inconsistent Qualification tests take ages to appear They'll use any excuse to reduce your pay or decline it altogether Let's say you actually get paid... The pay is abysmal and that's a nice way of putting it. So many tasks pay less than 5 bucks per hour. The website runs so terribly, pages can take really long to load (doesn't apply to UHRS) The support team is among the worst. Automated answers all around. They'll ignore your emails. You have to use IE for most tasks, Mac users beware

Hi we are really sad to see the negative review but appreciate the points you make. Tasks are indeed inconsistent, the same with all freelance opportunities like clickworker, it is not to be viewed like a regular job. Qualifications will appear once relevant information has been added to your profile. Jobs are only declined if they are done incorrectly. Pay for jobs are shown before you accept the task, so if it's too low for you it may be best not to work on it. I'm not aware of any automated replies to emails, if there is a name at the end of the email then that is who answered you, if you don't like the reply, please email back and a manager can look into it for you. We reply to all emails we get. IE is required to take the UHRS assessments, after that you can use any browser to work on clickworker.com and many use non-IE browsers to work on UHRS. Mac users sometimes use a virtual machine to take the assessments. Please feel free to email and make the email FAO Hazel and I can look at the email replies you weren't happy with and try to find the emails you say we didn't answer. Our support team answer 1000's of emails every week and work very hard to provide the best support they can so please get in touch so we can help you. Thank you!

Pros

Flexible, make your own schedule, easy tasks such as surveys, finding pictures on Google and taking screenshots

Cons

Could not use for full-time or even consistent part-time work. Just a fun side-gig if you get bored and want to spend time earning some pocket change.

Pros

● Decent minimum wage initially. ● Work at your own pace.

Cons

● False sense of security as you see your balance go up from doing hitapps, but you're basically working hard for free. ● Shady business practices ● Hitapps dry up quickly ● Dishonest Clickworker support team ● Time and effort you invest on their platform will turn out in vain ● They will try very hard to find every excuse in the book not to pay you. ● They will find any excuse in the book to suspend your account.
