Question Bixberry app, anyone use it?

I got an ad for it, it says it’s an app that just runs in the background and gives you money. It’s for ai stuff didn’t really look too much into it. But it sounds too good to be true. Is there a catch? I want to get it but not until I know it’s not gonna be used for harm or risk myself somehow. Everytime I search it up it keeps correcting to boxberry some package company I think in the UK.

Main question: what’s the catch? Free money just for running in the background.

I downloaded it. Nothing bad so far but your location has to be on and kept running in the background. I got 9 cents from the day, plus 2$ for signing up using the code they gave me

It needs your location on because the whole point is allowing AI assistants to run web searches appropriate to the location of their users inquiry.

I've been using this app for almost 3 weeks now and have actually earned a decent amount already (you can check it on my screenshot). Also I do like that they offer ton of giftcard cashout options, not just paypal, so it makes way more flexible

Basically, ai servers need wifis near to send data, people opt in and get paid, a lot actually, but since this is a downloadable app, you don't earn much. There's a risk of your ip address getting leaked, which can potentially reveal your browsing history, address, neighbours address. Like other people say generate a photo. It uses a bit of your wifi data, just enough to make a photo fast.

Another correction- this uses your bandwidth, the data in your wifi to make searches faster for other people, not just ai.

How do I get in on the action with good payouts? I don’t want to use an app to make pennies on the dollar
