For the past 10 years of working from home, You have to believe me when I say “Anyone can actually spend a few minutes up to an hour a day making money”. But it does not always mean you’ll get rich fast. It also takes some hard work and a passion to make money online. Also, An additional 20 new apps this 2020 is posted now.
I downloaded all sorts of apps that make money. I tried them, sometimes I failed to make even a single cent. And sometimes I made hundreds of dollars. And because some apps are not available worldwide. I have to make sure to do thorough research of its legitimacy.
It’s not always failing and it’s not always succeeding either. The one thing that I learned about money-making apps and sites, that not everything is permanent.
I’m not saying that all of these will vanish soon. What I’m saying is make the most of these paying sites while their hot and kicking.
Some of the apps and sites that I used years ago are now defunct. But, surprisingly some of them are still working and paying up to this point.
I have to always and I mean, Always, Update you guys with the best apps all the time. Because money-making apps and sites may come and go, But, like what I always say. Some awesome ones stay. You just need to know which.
Now the question is, Did you even bother to download the apps I mentioned from my previous posts and try them yourself before some of them disappeared?
That’s why I’m back to update you guys. And the good news is I have some new awesome apps, and old ones that are still paying and good to go.

Let me know which applications allow earning in India?
Hi Kumar,
If you can’t see it in the app store then it’s probably not available in India. God Bless!
I’ve already tried those apps but you cannot earn 1000 dollars a month. Even 100 or 200 dollars a month. I’m sorry but I’m disappointed
Hi Crizia,
Sorry, If you feel disappointed. Have you tried palfish? Some of these apps have offers that are location-based, So, you might not be getting enough offers to make more money. I know some people who earn more than $1000/ monthly with most of the apps mentioned here. God bless!

Hey great list. With cashmagnet do you have to download games or surveys? What exactly do you have to do as I am a little confused.
App trailers doesn’t work all that well in Canada. After months of waiting I made 10bucks but the US tax stuff doesn’t allow me to redeem. I did redeem every few months for a while but then it asked for that info.
Blabber doesn’t work anymore.
You didn’t replace the #1 on the list.
Also I have various apps that you may not have. Can I share them with you?
