Disappointing

2022-05-22

The idea is great but with the rewards that are available it is 100% NOT worth it! If you want discounts and coupons you can use Miles called honey, it’s free. The rewards need to be gift cards or at the very least good discounts like 75% off items or websites. This site mostly gives you deals on subscriptions, which is NOT appealing because even if you get a month free you have to pay to keep it going. If you could redeem a years worth of a subscription for free that would be worth it, other than that it’s pointless. I downloaded it despite the low rating to check it out. I’m sad to say Miles deserves the low rating. Get those rewards worked out and you could have a good thing going. I have soooooo many this app and nothing I want to redeem them for so I’m deleting Miles . It’s not worth it

Update: To the response I got from the developer
That’s all well and good that your offers are unique but they aren’t good. My point was it’s not worth it for discounts. You can find discounts all over the internet with a simple google search. It would be worth it if you could earn gift cards, I want free not discounts lol. There are other apps that you can get free gift cards with and I’m going to stick with them. Let me know in the future if you improve the rewards. My suggestion is fix the rewards because it is the biggest complaint I’ve seen in the reviews. Listen to the constructive criticism and try to make your app better.

Love the concept, but the rewards are essentially worthless

2022-06-23

Most of these rewards are not something you would typically use often. For example, a lot of the options under the “food“ category are for those mail order food services. I don’t use those. Or a five dollars off a $50 purchase at target. Why not just give us a gift card so we can choose the amount based on our this app? If I’m going to spend $50, saving five isn’t that big of a deal. However, if I could purchase five dollar gift cards for so many this app, that would be beneficial. Or the offer from Chewy is only for first-time customers. Again, worthless. Why not offer gift cards for these places rather than offers for first-time orders only? I would like to find an app where you can use gift cards for your points. I do like how Miles works, and it has tracked all of my trips successfully. I think I would start using it again if the rewards were worth it.

won’t track miles

2022-07-24

I have been using this app for over 2 years. Until recently, it worked great. Now, it won’t track this app. I keep emailing and keep getting the same “suggestions “ of open Miles at least twice a week (it’s opened daily), makes sure always allow is on (it is), email them with missing this app including date, time and this app (I do and given “token” this app not even close to the amount of missing this app) along with similar suggestions. Miles still does not work and have feeling it never will.

The developer replied to try everything that has already been suggested and tried. I have emailed them several times but NOTHING has been fixed. One suggestion was to uninstall and reinstall. I have a new phone and it still does NOT record the trips. PLEASE FIX.

Trash

2022-08-25

I use app referral programs to make extra cash all the time. Each week they offer a large referral reward for adding 5 new “eligible” users. The eligibility requirements are that they must be a new user added in that weeks window and that they must drive a certain pre determined amount of trips during that window. I have Miles on my husbands phone and mine, added 13 people last week between the two of us, 6 on 1 and 7 on the other and then took 5 of those phones/people out for the sole purpose of getting all the trips in and added a couple of extra trips to ensure they qualified. After waiting a week for the review, they determined that none of those accounts met the qualifications, knocking both my husband and myself out of the reward after spending hours of time and gas. Normally I wouldn’t care, but the fact that they offer these rewards and then pretend you didn’t qualify when you know for a fact you did leaves a really poor image of that company. I will be deleting Miles and having all of the people I’ve had add it delete it as well. May not be much in the big picture but if these developers will be that dishonest then I’ll take the 19 accounts I’ve brought and go…

Not Fond Of It!

2022-09-26

This could be a great app; however, from my end there has been too many issues with missing this app from trips. When I try report the issue, the response from I guess it’s the customer care team seem to be the same generic response, to open Miles 2x a week. I’m in Miles everyday checking out my this app, checking gift cards, enter ring drawings and donating this app to charities. Some of my missing mile have shown up the next day but for the others, it seems to be too much to remember trip I’ve made to report so the care team can update my this app. Also for a November and December I haven’t received any tier bonus to claim. I received emails and app notifications saying that I have them then when going into true app there’s nothing to claim. I also reported this issue and no one has even responded back to me.

Referral program is a scam

2022-10-27

Supposedly you get a $200 gc if you refer 5 people who take 5, 2+ mile trips. It said my mom sister and best friend were “not valid referrals” and didn’t give me credit for them even though they drove the this app. So I got credit for 3 referrals only and was offered $15. For that, I wouldn’t have wasted my time! Also, a few people who did supposedly qualify for the $200 couldn’t claim it cause it said “sold out” so apparently there is a limit to how many people actually get the reward they entice you with so if you aren’t fast enough you won’t get it. It’s a scam!

- edited to add since they responded, I did reach out but was told that my referrals didn’t qualify but they did not explain why. I saw their phones myself and see they did the this app but customer service couldn’t give me any valid reasons for them not qualifying

Not free at all

2022-11-28

When they say you get free stuff they really mean you pay a subscription, get the first month free, then end up paying the rest full cash. The other stuff that’s not subscriptions are just coupons. It’s just filled with companies it is working with so they can all try to make money off you buying stuff from them. Your paying for advertising basically. It’s not secure and the company does not take responsibility for getting viruses or anything off Miles . They also just want to steal your data. Also if you look most of the ratings that are 5 stars look like bots, they either have only like three word reviews, maybe a sentence, or they are made by children that don’t understand what’s happening. Before they added the bots it had a low rating. Sad to see how easily manipulated Miles Store is.

Horrible customer service and a scam

2022-12-29

I download Miles because I’ve heard about it from other people. There was a promotion where if I refers 5 friends , I get a 50$ gift-card. I refers 5 people and did not get the 50$ gift-card. When I contact them, they said they can’t track my referral or something like that, making crazy excuses when I have the proof and everything send to them. This apps is so useless .

Update: from the created respond you can already tell their customer service is trash. The referral was literally tell 5 friends and they do their first this app. Easy enough. I did everything and even have proof. At first they said they were back up because of the holiday and everyone using it. Then they said I was not eligible because they think I make two account. Ummmm I don’t have time for that. I only have one phone . I had refer my sister that have the same last name as me ??? But she did her first this app . After us how them proof they never reply to my email . LOL . So I refer five friends and didn’t even get the 50 gift card. So Don’t waste your time on this trash app and their trash customer service

A waste of time

2023-01-30

For the record, the “rewards” are literally promotions you can achieve by just going to these websites on your own. this app is making a killing from referral links. It’s not even like Groupon where you’re getting a massive deal in comparison to regular promotional pricing or packages. You’re literally only given the most bare bones rewards on Miles. They then offer $50 raffles like that means anything. Nahh...give me gift cards when I redeem 20k this app or something. Not this scam of “rewards” options that are just referral links. Don’t believe me? Try it. They put the links right in the description. Redeeming your rewards literally only takes away this app. You can get the “reward” by not redeeming a single thing 😂

In response to the developer:
That’s the whole point. You’re literally using your app users by cashing in on the referral links because some are too naive to see what you’re doing. Scammy. Call it what it is. I’ve literally tested these “rewards” and I can get any of them all by myself. If I go through Miles , I get the “rewards,” sure. But I also give you the opportunity to make money off of me. No thanks. Stop replying to these reviews not telling the truth.

Sketchy practices overall

2023-03-03

From their support, to their rewards and even them explicitely admitting on their Terms of Service the following: "this app does not represent or warrant that our Services are accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. While this app attempts to make your use of our Services and any content therein safe, we cannot and do not represent or warrant that our Services or servers are free of viruses or other harmful components. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Services."

The above is a clear depection that all they are after is our data for it to be sold or used for their own profit. They even openly admit to not be accurate, complete, reliable or even SAFE! We could get viruses from using their services and they just dump it all on us by ending that paragraph with "You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Services."

Online articles and interviews are nothing but a marketing scam to make it seem appealing but there is nothing, believe me, NOTHING worth while with Miles or company overall. I am now concerned that my data will still be used somehow regardless of me no longer having Miles , nothing but regret of ever doing business with this company. STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS.

Poor choices and available areas

2023-04-01

Miles itself is pretty cool and most of the things you use to redeem your points are pretty fair but the reason they are fair is because there isn’t anything good or worth it to you to choose. They’re either like 10% off something crazy expensive or you have to spend a lot to get them or they are things that aren’t even anywhere near you. Also they are very misleading. For example free full tank of gas... okay sounds good. Open it up and it’s when you rent a car only or you have to have a app that is only available for use in two cities across the country. I’ll keep Miles for a bit to see if more comes along but if not it’s just wasting your battery.

Also looks like Miles developers answer to almost everyone’s review but they answer basically if not the exact same way to everyone meaning it’s probably automated and just lead you on to think there’s better coming so you’ll keep Miles .

Not worth it....yet

2023-05-03

The reward are pretty much the types of coupons and free trials that you can get without doing anything. And Miles hasn’t logged any of my walks in months despite the fact that I walk every single day. It’s even missing some drives now. I was in touch with the developer and they said the problem had been fixed, but it’s no better than it was before. The 20x points for walks does me no good when Miles won’t log walks. I have other apps that track me with no issues if I use them instead of Miles, so I don’t see what the problem is. They said to contact them with the details of any missed trips, but that’s a ridiculous amount of trouble to go to when the rewards aren’t anything special anyway. Sorry, this app. I wanted to give you a chance, but you failed. The one thing I really did like is how their customer support seems to make a real effort and they’re very courteous. I may keep it just a bit longer to see if things improve, but only because they’ve been so pleasant and respond to every email and review and that counts for a lot with me.

5 star down to 2

2023-06-03

I used to love Miles. It worked great and I was able to alter my trips to maximize my chance of earning challenge rewards. However, now most of my trips don't register correctly or are missing all together. Ex: I walked up the road (1.6 this app twice yesterday). The first trip got broken into two 0.8 mile trips so I didn't qualify for minimum of 1mile to count for challenge even though I never stopped and my second walk of the day doesn't even show up. I contacted support about a month ago, as it's been progressively getting worse. All I got back was a response that basically told me to make sure I open Miles at least once a week...didn't seem like they even read what my issue was. Definitely can't recommend Miles to others anymore, unless they get things fixed.

Kind of a waste

2023-07-05

I signed up for the this app ap back when they were offering $5 Starbucks cards for 2,500 points. Since August there has been nothing worth redeeming points for. If you listen to podcasts or the radio, you can get all the same coupon codes that you would be cashing your points in for on the this app ap. I can honestly say without a doubt that NONE of the so called “rewards” are worth redeeming.
I redeemed some points for a $40 off purchase from a site that only exists in Europe so the shipping is like $40 per item. Ridiculous.
The “prizes” remind me of the old magazine subscription thing where they get you to sign up for a free subscription and when you don’t cancel after the trial period you get billed a cray amount. Nothing is free on here.
I really wish I could write a better review because the concept and the ap are nicely designed.

Worthless and weak

2023-08-05

I have had Miles for one day and felt that I should make it clear that Miles offers nothing for the this app they give you or you earn. 10% off your first order if you join a subscription page and pay monthly fees, free tank of gas on a rent a car if you rent a premium car, 20% off if you spend 100$ on something you’d never Spend money on in the first place even if it was 50% off.

However it is a great idea but absolutely worthless as it’s currently being used. How hard would it be to get business to give away free cup of coffee or a free burger at McDonald’s or some crap like that but not even that kind of thing is offered. Let alone that your this app are converted into fractions of the this app. I’ve seen conversions as low as 0.01 of a mile for ever mile redeemed.

I’ll keep it in the hopes that the makers of Miles pull their head out of their.... but I don’t expect much.

The App Itself is Awesome

2023-09-06

I rate it 3 stars because I have over 5,000 this app just sitting in my account with no use. Most of the rewards offered are either unappealing to me, or located across the country. When it was first released there was a 5 dollar Starbucks reward that was awesome. I used it when it was there, but now that it’s gone there is nothing I want to spend my this app on. It’s to the point where I have turned off location services for Miles to conserve battery. Why save all these this app when there is nothing to redeem them for? I will say Miles works as advertised, when I first signed up I received my bonus this app, it also always awards me the this app I have earned. Three stars instead of five for lack of reward options.

Great potential, with a few issues

2023-10-08

I constantly take public transportation to get around to work and errands, so thought that this would be a great way to rack up points. There seems to be an issue with Miles as it doesn’t recognize transfer trips. For example, I take two buses to work. Once I get off the first bus and get on the second one a few minutes later, Miles will only recognize my first bus ride and not the second. I also have an issue with rideshare this app as it wants other people to also requires other people in the ride to use Miles . Instead of that, there should be an option where we could link our Uber/Lyft accounts to transfer our trip data to verify that the trip was in-fact a carpool ride.

Legit

2023-11-08

I’m feeling it some things really don’t seem to be that treat of a discount or you could find better but A+ for the effort and great display also it’s great for advertising for company’s and websites . Some discounts I love bc it is a good deal other offers they had seemed just like what the company already does like give big discounts for hotels with member rates which is free anyway to book and do on there site . So I guess you can say it’s a 50/50 chance wether your getting something great and a good deal but there are more good higher or exclusive rates than none or same as site or nothing special deals . So I think this app is going places and doing a great job just needs a little bit more growth a little something something with a flare a i knowww they just didn’t OMG little pop to it . Wether it’s a deal or discount or one wildly amazing deal you can claim and purchase a week or day . Maybe have a monthly , weekly and daily , Pop Boom OMG Promotion or Deal/discount that flares and up to the level it needs to and occasion. Thanks great work ! -T.W.

Been using miles for the last few years..

2023-12-10

Works great and keeps track on all the this app I burn just going to work and back. I use this to help with my taxes too, since I’m an independent contractor. This year I can’t seem to access Miles without it saying something went wrong and refuse to load any trips I made. So I keep refreshing and still nothing. Thinking of never using Miles again because I can’t access anything on Miles . The maintance team need to fix this asap. You are making me lose money!

Almost like sweat coin but easier !

2024-01-10

I enjoy using this app because it is pretty easy to rack up this app especially by referring my friends and family who would definitely benefit from this! There are many positive aspects of Miles but the biggest criticism is that there aren’t that many rewards that I might want to redeem because many are subscriptions or still expensive with the rewards. However, that is just like sweat coin so I knew what to expect. I’ve already redeem one item (only paid 3 dollars out of pocket) so to me Miles is definitely worth it. Like everyone else, I hope they add new things for redeem as I’m always checking out for new offers! I like that you can easily adjust the method of transportation when it’s not right. Miles is very user friendly. There is truly great customer service as well. Hope to find more apps like this !

Fine App, Poor Rewards

2024-11-21

Miles is a good idea at its core, but if the developers plan to keep users on board it’s necessary for them to provide better reward options. Claiming that these rewards “have high value” means nothing when they do not appeal to users. Most of the rewards are coupons for sites I’ve never heard of or offers that will require some form of payment down the line, defeats the purpose of providing my location / this app information for them to sell. If the rewards don’t step up soon, I’ll be deleting Miles , no real gain on the user’s end right now.

Try bringing the $5 Starbucks gift card back or adding some other tangible deals, that’s how you’ll keep the user base you need to continue operating.

Rewards

2024-11-21

How do I take off the reward if I don’t won’t it, or if I accidentally clicked it. Because I don’t want to pay the monthly 21 dollars, I thought it was all free. I thought you would just fill out a form and then give them your email and I thought you did not have to subscribe to the thing. A little disappointed on this part. Other than how good Miles is, so I still give Miles 5 stars!! PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTION;) thank you guys!!!

I’m kinda mad at this point, you guys responded but left a horrible response. You did not answer my questions. Also you just to “go to my email” thing was kind of pathetic. I’ve tried that before and that has never solved my problems. So I’m giving you 3 stars!!!!!!!!

Eh

2024-11-21

Edit 7/27: looks like they are fixing some of the issues, so problems are slowly getting worked out. One of my past trips finally showed up. Hoping to see Miles continue to improve. Still haven’t heard from customer support other than here in the reviews. Also, still haven’t received the other 500 this app I was missing from sign-up.

Edit 10/01: app has much improved since the launch back in July. Tracks my this app and no more errors/crashing. Rewards are not as good now, which is why my rating isn’t higher. It’s a shame, wish they had kept the $5 gift cards, maybe raise the “price” so they aren’t as easy to redeem? I don’t consider signing up for a subscription a reward.

Great app, but...

2024-11-21

Yea it’s a great app, great idea but umm... what’s with the fact that I couldn’t Change my email address because I accidentally entered it wrong, so I had to go and start a new account with my actual email address, but thanks to me having to do that because I couldn’t just change the email from the initial account, I didn’t receive my bonus 1500 this app... what’s with that?!?...

Free stuff for all of the miles

2024-11-21

Miles gets me free stuff, credits, or discounts for all of the this app that I’m trekking — can’t complain! It automatically starts earning me the this app I can use to redeem rewards without having to manually check in or log them myself.

While it provides me special deals on products and services I already recognize and/or use like Wag and Winc, it also helps me discover businesses I would have otherwise never come across.

I’m excited to see Miles continue to develop and add on a more variety of businesses and deals!

Why not?!

2024-11-21

So, you’re telling me that you’ll do all the work, track my this app and give me points for it all and then I can redeem those points on stuff I actually want because you made some awesome partnerships?!

This is a no brainer. Came at the perfect time as I had a driving trip to LA from SF, heading to Cancun and Machu Picchu in the coming weeks! Talk about cashing in on those this app!

If you travel a lot, run a lot or commute a lot, then Miles is a no brainer. The rewards and partnerships they built are actually worthwhile and I’m sure they will have more down the pipeline!

What a nifty app!

2024-11-21

Downloaded Miles because I drive a lot and I thought “rewards for my this app..sign me up!” Miles automatically tracks your mileage as you drive. You don’t need to do anything other than keep on driving 🚗 You can then redeem your points for many different discounts with different businesses. Their support team is awesome as well. Had a minor problem trying to figure out how to redeem my rewards and they immediately responded to my inquiry and resolved my issue. Keep up the good work this app! 👍🏽
