It is yes... it asks where you in the store.. then a multiple choice question did you buy... did you not buy... did you intend to buy... etc thats it...nothing specific.. more a poll than a mystery shop.. handy for folks doing the blades on T360 this afternoon as all 3 stores are "usually" part of that.

Only let me do one of each store today, after wandering round 2nd and 3rd Boots and Superdrug's no message appeared. Wilko was right beside them too and that got accepted so seems unlikely another spottr did them and missed the Wilko

Got a secret boots one today which was nice, especially as doing that seems to have given my app the boot up the backside it needed to start behaving again!

Ok... i just did a walk thru my shopping centre (productive as did a T360 blades in Wilko.. 2 BME bookie jobs @ £10 each and all three of these)... what i did note was.. all 3 are within 100m of each other...2 i got the alert within the triangle of the 3.. but the superdrug alert came at a totally different part of the centre... so.. maybe worth wandering thru the area..also noticed 2 alerts happened again later.. but when trying to accept it said someone else had done them (that would be me) so the alerts dont disappear after getting nabbed

I get the notifications when I'm on the bus...but then by the time I click on them to accept, I'm no longer in the area! :D

Hi I'm fairly new to this app and have done 7 tasks but I'm not sure I understand the tasks categorised as "Find a location" do you need to select a task and then it tells you where to go? I don't want to accept a task and then find I can't do it?
Thanks for any help!

Its a 'spot type' there are 3
Anywhere
Nearby
Find a location

:)
I must be on an old version or something...spot types on mine are wherever you want,nearby and report spots!

Well assuming Find a location is the same as report spots on mine, when you open it do you see "Display Checks" (£5) and "Landmarks?

To answer my own question... just put it on my Iphone and the spot types on THAT are Anywhere,Nearby and Find a location! (So they are differently named on Android)
So to answer @Ani for those if you see/know where there is a Go Pro display you accept and do the task in any shop you see it... for example you walk past Currys and see a Go Pro display, go to app, accept the task and do it. from then it is just a normal task... £5 each time The other one "Landmarks" is take pics of a landmark you pass (TBH not worth your time,,, no money just XP points)
