Influenster: Reviews & Deals 4+

I don’t really write reviews, but I felt I needed to after receiving my third beauty Voxbox :). Seriously, this app is awesome. I love the idea; it’s really quite a genius way to get users interested in brands and review products. I’ve been a part of both campaigns and Voxboxes and have loved being able to get cash back and free beauty products in exchange for my honest reviews. I love using the app to research the products I want to buy as well. It is important to mention that some users who receive free stuff tend to review higher than the product is actually deserving of, which isn’t the app’s fault, but it’s good to watch out for when reading reviews.
There are quite a few complaints online about people being on the app for years and never getting a Voxbox. There seems to be a specific type of user they target when sending out products, and I am one of the lucky ones they like. This app is definitely not a scam; I can testify to that (I’ve received over $100 in free stuff so far). It can be kind of hard for some people to get chosen though, no matter how much you review. This app is worth a download to try your luck! And you can always look up tips to get better chances to be chosen for a Voxbox. Writing long reviews and uploading pictures is always helpful :)

I’ve had the app for over a year now and in the past few months it just seems to have given out. I personally didn’t realize there was an updated BETA app until a few weeks ago and since I updated the app it’s just been completely out of whack. It doesn’t let me post, ask questions, create polls, review anything without scanning a barcode or finding it in the listed products they have (literally half of most reviews aren’t listed on Influenster & it’s stopped me from posting!)
I used to have high engagement, recurring campaigns and obviously enjoyed it. I can’t really say the same anymore, they used to be super responsive and had great customer service but now they ignore most requests and apparently don’t fix the pointed out bugs/issues when they update it anymore. I’m disappointed at the fact that I can no longer participate in surveys (that literally stand in the way of receiving voxboxes) and my campaigns have been disappearing as well as the last few I’ve been approved for haven’t actually been shipped to me. The last time they responded to a CS request was one of the boxes I reported missing and they said they can’t offer tracking or be held accountable for missing packages. If you’ve had the app for a while now you know they attempted to provide tracking info. and usually it didn’t come through or was incorrect, now they don’t offer it at all on IOS. I don’t understand why they downgraded the app? But okay.

I love this app. Well mostly, I love it for the fact it really is a neat app to participate in. They they send you lots of great free stuff for your honest review and posting it on social media, etc . Fairly easy and a fair trade by far.
The only thing I have issue with is it has glitched on me and screwed up my entry of surveys needed to receive makeup products and since I’ve never got another chance and it’s breaks my heart! I’m a makeup artist by trade and that’s my thing, so.
The app made it impossible to submit the makeup survey then cleared it and submitted it . I contacted CS but it’s doubtful they are able to fix that for me. I get other offers but not any in that category anymore since that . It had other various glitches that have since been resolved, as well.
I’m always super paranoid now when I am using the app and on important tasks ! Not surveys cause I stopped getting them all together when this happened .
I’ll still take my chances though! I still love this app !
