    They're also assuming that everyone who has a smartphone, uses apps!

    I have no desire to download anything on to my phone

    So -- I usually don't make my Daily Goal, now I won't be making my To-Do List. Not much sense in even going there for me.

Why is this change happening?
    They replied with: Hi Kay, thank you for taking the time to share with us. We are hoping this is an extra way to access us on the go.

    I responded: Essentially, there is NO WAY for someone to complete all nine items on the To Do list now if they DO NOT have a smart phone and cannot use your app. I know a few people who are older who have participated in the program for many years, but do not have smart phones. A few do not have cell phones at all. How many people are being written off with this change?
    Be Happy Now.

    I replied to them...........

    That's fine if you want people to be able to access you on the go, but it doesn't need to be an option on the To Do List.

    LOL

    When I had my iPhone 3, I didn't have the memory to download and run apps. I bought an iPhone 7 a few years ago, and I don't need to clutter it up with more than I NEED - it's bad enough that MP wants you to download apps and games to earn points. Ugh. I've done MP in Safari when I had to, but don't want their app!

    On the upside - I redeemed some points for a GC at eBay so I could buy some printer ink. I used the eBay link from the shop list to see if I would get credit for the purchase. Many years ago it wasn't allowed - you had to use a credit card, and GC would not earn points.

    I am happy to report that I have 33 points pending for my 32.99 purchase (supposed to credit in 28 days). I had a balance already at eBay (from a previous ink purchase that I made, not through MP), so I got it for no out-of-pocket funds. Now I know what to do the next time I need ink...at this point I'm grateful to get something back on the GC I earned with them.
    Be Happy Now.

    I did this last night, and have yet to get any points. Nothing under ''Pending'' either.
    Figures.

    And today we have to complete 10 items to make the To-Do List?! It includes using the app and using Score. I'm not even going to bother looking at this any more. I'll just do my regular things and take what I get.

    The Annie's deal is still there but I got nothing! Submitted a Magic Receipt -- showed up on my account but failed to credit on my To-Do list, so I didn't make my 6 items for the 5 bonus points (I submitted a ticket, but to what end? They won't do anything for at least 2 days -- not going to credit me for the bonus points!). Spent almost an hour being DQd from surveys before I finally got one. So, I finally made 6 items. So frustrating.
