Ratings and Reviews
Not bad but could use some updating
All in all the app really isn’t too bad and I don’t believe it slowed my iPhone8 any at all, atleast not noticeably. It just runs in the background and honestly I forget that it’s there 90% of the time.
It would be nice if the app would give you a reminder to login every day tho. I also wish there was more to do in the app to earn rewards points whether it be taking surveys, watching videos, or even playing little games. It just be nice to have something to do and it be more interactive.
I also think it needs an update to streamline the interface/dashboard. It can be kind of clunky and cumbersome to navigate at times. Some of the bigger prizes are kinda pricey points wise. Wish they would have an occasional sale on items.
For a background app tho it’s definitely one of the better ones!
Pros:
easy to install and run
doesn’t slow down your phone
earn points for free stuff just for having on your devices
Cons:
not much to do
outdated interface
big prizes are kind of pricey IMO
Blocks internet access for other apps
I did not experience the slowdown of browsing, widely reported by many other users. However, when connected to Nielsen, some connections simply don’t work at all. Most notably, Apple App Store, when it can’t search for apps and can’t update the apps. Another app is LG SmartSync - it can’t connect to their servers.
There is a remedy however. Your home router most like had not one but two connections, one for 5 GHz, another for 2. Configure Nielsen app for one of them; whenever Nielsen is blocking your connection, switch your phone to use another one. Don’t forget to switch back.
I tried to report this problem to Nielsen tech support, but did not receive any response at all. By all signs it’s outsourced, so not a big surprise. I also reported this to Apple.

Doesn’t slow down the phone
It doesn’t slow down the phone or computer. Tip: After you update your phone, don’t forget to check the Nielsen app and make sure it’s running. It had been sitting there waiting for me to enable background refresh for who knows how long. It updated, so I’m guessing it’s been waiting for a week or two since I last updated my phone. It could have been like that even longer; I don’t know because I never look at the app. I just let it rack up points in the background.
