Ipsos/MobiAudit...

Why do they have their own app, but use the mobiaudit app. Which one do I use to do the reports/surveys for them. I just took 3 shops for them, which I heard are very easy but I am confused by the two apps thing. any help/ suggestions?

oh and what is with the shopmetrics thing? I thought that was a whole separate reporting platform as well?!

I prefer the Mobi Audit app for all Shop Metrics shops. I didn't even know IPSOS had their own app, but if it's not broke, why fix it? I get all my Shop Metrics shops on the app and it's just much easier that way, rather than have apps for individual companies. Oh, other than Gigspot. I hated Gigspot and had it for less than 48 hours before I contacted them and had them remove me from their system.

so i think im confused as to what shopmetrics is.. lol. Sorry for all these questions but I was only shopping for 3 companies mainly for the past year and now im trying to expand my horizons haha

I just looked at IPSOS website and there are instructions for MobiAudit setup, but I don't see any mention of any other apps. And what do you mean about "the shopmetrics thing"? I don't understand what you are asking. You can report on your PC with Shop Metrics or you can complete on the app, or you can do a combo of both. In fact, I often enter most information on the app and then save it for when I get home so I can look it over on my computer before submitting the shop. Plus it's a lot easier to type the comments on my PC rather than my phone.

does shopmetrics have its own app? is it like using the presto app?

Ah, I see. Yes, Shop Metrics is a reporting platform. There are still people who submit their shops solely on their computers at home and don't use the Mobi Audit app at all.

You can completely report your shops on Shop Metrics. I don't think you can do that on Presto. Isn't that app just for finding Sassie shops in your area and not for reporting? I rarely use Presto since I generally get emails from schedulers before I ever think to look at Presto to see what's around me.

yes.. presto is just to find jobs. no reporting. I usually check it every day just to see what new shops there are and to see if theres anything extra I can do. I am a single mom on tightrope budget.. every dollar extra counts so I dont mind picking up that $5 job if its a mile away. lol.

but wait.. does shopmetrics have an app? Or do you report all shopmetrics in the mobiaudit app?

Mobi Audit is the Shop Metrics app.

Ahhhh.... I understand now!!! You are amazing. Thank you!!!

How sweet, no problem at all.

You can download the ipsos app from the Google Play Store. The app breaks a lot, it just gets stuck and buffers especially when you are loading pictures.

I use the Ipsos app. It's ishopforipsos in the app store, is greenish and has a picture of a shopping bag. It syncs my assignments automatically whereas with Mobi I have to go find them somewhere first. With both I hate that clock face with an invisible hand that never settles on the number I need!

For Mobi you have to manually enter every company you want to use it with and, for me, syncronization fails no matter how I try to enter Ipsos. That was the problem, I couldn't remember. So Mobi doesn't handle Ipsos for me but their own app is exactly the same to use.

Presto does have shops of its own. While it is great for finding nearby SASSIE shops (the orange pins) there are also Presto InstaShops (the blue pins) which are done directly on Presto. These are typically quick shops and pay within a few days of being accepted.

Unfortunately a lot of our projects have slowed down over the holidays so you may not see many blue pins near you, but hopefully things will pick back up soon.

Thanks for asking your questions. I appreciate it too!!

Ok, tried logging in to Mobi and Ishopipsos apps and get error. I used same log in as on website. Need to do something different?

Have you tried the ishopforIpsos app? In your app store it is green with an outline of a shopping bag!

When performing shops for ipsos, can I use a desktop PC for entering reports or is the mobile app required for all shops.
thank you in advance.

Yes, you can also use a desktop/laptop and enter your report on our website! Ishopforipsos.com!
