for 5$ a day you agree to install viruses on people’s phone? Wow… once again, just a ****ing retard, not much to say here also. I am making 80$/day with 10 apps using admob&fan, could’ve made a lot more with a better cpm but it is what it is. Still doesn’t make me install malware from my apps for 5 bucks a day. Geez!
Why you think it’s some kind of virus? (I have no idea/interest about Tapcore, I am not planning to use them anyway. Just wondering what makes you think it’s a virus)
Because after installing an app that uses tapcore, ads can appear anywhere in the ecosystem. It can appear while browsing chrome, while writing an SMS, while playing a game, after unlocking the phone etc. Usually, ads should not appear outside of the app because the user doesn’t know the source of the ad and how to stop it. Imagine someone older who is just consistently getting 5 ads per day and obviously at some point gets annoyed because he can’t find the source unless he uninstalls all apps from his phone or goes for reset. This is what tapcore basically does.
We are nowhere close to a virus/malware product. We have a clear and very visible “Opt-Out” button on all of our ads. If a user of yours wished to opt out, they simply have to click it. There’s no guess work or confusion here.
You can also provide your user with our “opt-out” link as well. http://optout.tapcore.com/
Oh yes, try injecting ads into obfuscated app. Then try to make it work, not crashing on startup or while using it. Obviously we are talking about different obfuscations, or, most likely, you get your hard earned 5 bucks + some bonus from those guys for talking all this gibberish.
APK file with “opt out”? This is something new. Does a user get something like that when he installs your SDK? Does he see this opt out stuff while seeing your ads each day? Maybe some EULA, anything?
If not, this opt out story is just a cover for noobies, who don’t know how things should be. But maybe I am wrong, let’s ask virus companies what they think about your SDK? Of course you are not a virus or malware, you are right. But you are an adware, and you avoid saying that, but let’s try again. How many detections your SDK has right now?
Again, it is OK to do business as you can, but don’t be hypocrites with public you expect money from.
In the corner of every banner, interstitial and video ad, there is an opt-out button. Users have the clear option to opt out of our service completely each and every time an ad is served.
Users also have the ability to opt out at any moment using the following link as well from our website. Opt-out of mobile recommendations
Tapcore is not a virus, and actually serves a real purpose. It is similar to the Airpush Bundle 2 SDK, which made some people alot of money who are strongly utliilzing 3rd party markets (I know this because I am AirpushNick), where you don’t have to deal with the iron claw of Google.

you’re making money PER lead though, it’s basically CPA. CPA leads are always higher vs CPM
plus you’re doing a really active niche, cheat apps/guide apps people are engaged more
Hi everyone.
I specifically signed up on that god forsaken forum 95% full of teenagers, losers and scammers, to tell you my story, because I’m really pissed off.
I saw that thread, and the concept, what those guys are offering, looked more or less fresh. Then I saw the discussion here and it looked like Tapcore guys were not really frank with others and didn’t plan to be. So I decided to check it all out myself. And I spent 3 freaking hours to build 6 apps, and only 1 of them finally showed some ads, others just crashed on launch or when ads should have got started. The worst part here is that I couldn’t change ad delay in Chrome, so I had to do it in Firefox, and I couldn’t upload pics in FF (it was giving me a loop, asking for a pic again and again), so I had to upload pics back in Chrome, wow!
Finally, tired and humiliated, I injected their SDK and it worked! It showed ads in…Google stock Messenger! As well as in Skype, launcher and a bunch of other apps…
What does it look like? Ads are showing for 2 seconds and then disappear. 30-50 ads per user a day, huh? Now I get it! Mixing with bot traffic?
Now about your opt out. Indeed, there is an opt out button on one (!) of ad formats, specifically, 320x50 (or something like that). This size was popular in 19th century, but nevermind.
And it looks like this:
“In the corner of every banner, interstitial and video ad, there is an opt-out button”.
Where?! Here?!:
Oh, no opt-out?
-We ain’t give a shit!
and my favorite one here:
And there was a question about virustotal, here you go:
Bkav Android.Adware.Airpush.7E68
Cyren AndroidOS/GenPua.24A61EC8!Olympus
DrWeb Adware.Patacore.4
WhiteArmor Android-PUA.SN-Sure.420349503855293644.[Adware]
And this is only the beginning.
I’m not even asking why those ads are in ***ing Russian (I’m in Slovenia).
I’m not asking why you lie to people-anyone can check it all out too easily, like I did.
I’m asking why the hell on earth I had to spend so much of my precious time beta-testing (for free!) you guys doing what other adware guys can do in few minutes, and much, much more elegant?! I could have had sex with my pretty girlfriend all that time instead of having it with your sloppy system lol. You have a bunch of 5-buck ass-kissers, and none of them had such issues like me? Hardly believable!
Yes, I’ve been on this market for a while and I know all this shady stuff better than you can imagine. Hummermobi, Airpush, pin submits, porn, a dozen of private adware project-I’ve seen them all. And I really don’t understand why you guys have the balls to have a legit profile on LinkedIn with over 30 employees?! Doing this?! LOL! Maybe you are developing some Windows killer at the same time?
Whatever. At least you should have told us all that you are in pre-alpha.
Clumsy cynical pathetic adware.
p.s. Don’t consider me a troll. Here are just some raw facts you can check yourself, plus some emotional background, because all that is just beyond good and evil – straightforward lying without even a glimpse of shy. Publically!
Over and out.
And it looks like this:
“In the corner of every banner, interstitial and video ad, there is an opt-out button”.
Where?! Here?!:

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. As you know we have an opt-out on all of our ad formats and take this matter seriously. This bug has been reported to our development team and we will update this thread once the issue has been resolved.
Last Days earnings for mobile9 Traffic. Only takes 2 mins per app to be injected since you can upload app to be injected.
how are you keeping apps on mobile9? I upload really clean non shady apps with 0 ads and mobile9 is marking them as spam the last 2-3 months, it’s pretty retarded.
they’re worse then google play, which is ironic considering google is one of the largest anti spam companies on the planet
Oh,looks like your talking head accidentally used the only right word - injections! And since you don’t have any kind of verification who the APK file belongs to, this makes you - surprise! - “pirated” installs suppliers, not fighters! Thanks god you have what, 20% successful injections rate? Do you guys see the irony and the level of cynicism here?! What kind of drugs are you on to use such a “concept” in public?! Anyway, if someone reading this post is interested in such solution - I can drop you in PM few names that have been on the market for a while and who are smart enough to keep low profile. They do injections and stuff like that, yes, but on totally other level. I don’t represent any of them, but why not, it will be up to you to choose. At least they earned some reputation on the market and they are not that muddleheaded.
anybody else having experience with tapcore ? How much money can i make with them ?
anybode else here who has experience with tapcore?
Is it worth to use them ?
I’m also interested in them… Have they still so many bugs/crashes of apps? Are we 100% safe publishing apps with Tapcore on Google Play? Anyone experienced?
Yeah you’re safe on google, I’ve been using them for about 6 months, making good money. They always pay, and there aren’t many crashes anymore as they’ve fixed a lot of issues. Support is great also.
Yeah I’m using them and quite happy so far. No issues with Googleplay or anything. I use them on 3rd party app stores too, and doing well. It was hit and miss on monetizing 3rd party appstores before and so far they are doing a good job.
