WHY WE DO IT:
At Gener8, we believe that you should be able to control your own data.
Right now, your data is being hoovered up by companies that you’ve never even heard of. It feels like everyone is making money from your data. Except you.
Gener8 changes that. We put you back in control.
Gener8 shows you what information other apps hold on you. We visualise this in a beautiful and easy-to-understand manner and then empower you to exchange your private and secure data from these companies for Gener8 rewards—should you choose to.
One of the ways Gener8 can reward you for your data is through the use of Accessibility Services, which we only access with your active consent, to collect data on your online activities, for example, browsing history, app usage, and online searches.
No data leaves your device or passes through any of our systems without your explicit consent. All insights are generated on your device, and data is only shared with us if you choose to. All your data is kept private and secure.
Watch the space. We’re constantly improving the app!

User reviews
Gener8 sucks; and so does their team. If something doesn't work and you report it to them, don't expect them to fix it for at least a year. I've just a LOT of points because of the issues with receipt radar not working, plus other problems. You'll also unlikely ever be able to spend your points anyway as gift cards are hard to get and the amounts are ridiculously low anyway. I actually hate Gener8 with much disgust. Avoid.

Doesn't work at all. I open the app and I have to sign in 20 times it auto exits when I try to find a way to spend my points. The app is Garbage they are just getting paid to farm your data. Don't install it it's a garbage app by a garbage company. Also after I downloaded the app I get a phone call the next day of some new scam. I'm reporting them to the better business bureau.

For a long while, haven't been able download my Google data, it always gets stuck at 92%. The updates haven't fixed it. I also agree with some of the comments people have mentioned on here regarding getting rewards. Have uninstalled the app.
