Just wrapped up a year with Brandclub and earned $72.68… but the locked rewards, slow syncing, and hidden fees weren’t worth it. My honest review:
Bạn bấm điện thoại nhiều hơn hay ít hơn số này? 🤔🤔 #trituenhantaoio #dscout #typical #smartphone #user #average #tap #2617 #time #everyday https://www.instagram.com/p/CFdNn9eJ3Rj/?igshid=3eq8o7tikvts
dscout review (Video) I thought I'd share some info about an app I recently started to use. You can apply for missions and share your opinions on various topics.
スマートフォンで市場調査に参加できるdscoutが面白そう。
アプリは以前からありましたが、いよいよ日本も対象にした調査例も出始めたようです。アプリ内で各企業が募っている調査に参加すると、条件を満たして選抜された方には、数十ドル単位で参加報酬もあるようです。
Project Ara dscout featured snippet
Today's featured snippet is from 33-year-old Christian from Denmark:
ARA 007 SPECIAL EDITION FOR BRITISH GOVERNMENT AGENTS
How thick is your phone? 0.9 cm The size is very similar to the z1 to accommodate a variety of modules
How long is your phone? 14.7 cm
How wide is your phone? 7.35 cm
What material did you use to build most of your phone? Glossy photo paper
Which modules did you create for your phone? Camera, battery, USB,WiFi, additional storage, speaker, bluetooth, GPS, accelerometer
What other modules did you add? Standard modules Electronic bug detector Geiger counter Plastic explosive + detonator Remote control for BMW or Google driverless car Night vision monocular Mini dart gun module Satellite phone + antenna SDXC SIM Micro usb Extra modules Tails module modified for secure, private and anonymous communication Taser Mini flame thrower Aerosol (pick your own chemicals) Some of the ideas have been shown in various movies, or already exist. Whats new is assembling all of the ideas in a modular phone.

Insights and Inspiration
As we begin Mission 4, the Project Ara team wanted to share with you some of the insights and inspiration we’ve gotten from all of our scouts. We’ll begin with Mission 1, which overwhelmed us beyond expectations. As this experiment in global, open, online design unfolds, we’ll share back what we’re learning after each mission (we’ll be quicker moving forward :).
Let’s start with a few numbers:
within the first 24 hours of announcing Project Ara, 40,000+ scouts signed up to participate in the Project Ara Research Scout project
almost 3 months later, we’re still getting a few dozen sign-ups each day
Mission 1 had 18,097 scouts who submitted 41,567 snippets. The picture above is a collage of the scout profile images to inspire the team!
Scouts come from at least 111 countries (and these are just from those that entered their country in the profile - I suspect we have closer to 200 countries represented). The map below shows the snippets we received in the first 72 hours.
well over 25% of scouts have Apple devices - very cool to have everybody in the mix!
Mission 1 invited people to share their first impressions, and we got a little bit of everything. Most of the impressions were around customization, module possibilities, and just pure excitement. Here are some of our favorite snippet titles:
each phone one of a kind
endless possibilities
innovation above profitability
user inspired
the 4ever phone
second chances
open community
a brand I grow with
the best of everyone
complexity into simplicity
as unique as me
A few things stood out to us. First, a lot of scouts explored how a modular phone might support the close relationships in their life: such as a couple or a household swapping and sharing modules. Here’s an example:
“When making something your personal brand is not enough, make it even more personal by coupling parts together. With your love or your best friend or your grandma. So parts belong as you belong in your family.”
The second thing that surprised us is how many scouts talked about how energizing it was to be part of the conversation. We called this category of snippets “Moto+Me”, and the contributions here encourage us to continue with our open design approach. Here’s an example from Mark in the UK:
"Open, user driven, forward thinking community. The first peer to peer hardware community. Able to easily interact and give/get support from developers."
Third, Project Ara has captured the imagination of the world’s youth. Scouts range in age from 13-73, but the largest group of participants are in their 20s and the next are in their teens. Each snippet was ranked on a level of excitement from 1 - 7. What was really interesting is that while the average interest level steadily declined with age, it shot up to the highest levels for those over 70. Teens and our most senior scouts are clearly our most enthusiastic participants.
Fourth, while the overall tone of participants was optimistic, there were a few key questions and concerns that we saw repeatedly. As we begin to develop and share the technical details of the project, we’ll address each of these questions:
Will the pieces easily break apart if dropped?
How easy is it to take the modules out and fit in new ones?
Will there be enough space for all the modules I want?
Won’t this feel bulkier than the standard phone? Will it look good?
Is there a way to lock down the parts so they don’t “walk away”?
Will I need to upgrade the main board every few years?
Will my phone be water proof despite its modular design?
What we’ve seen so far has only solidified our belief that the best kinds of innovation come not from closed doors, but from an open collaboration that engages everyone in the process of thoughtful design. And while we can never hope to return as much inspiration as we’re getting from all of scouts, we’ll continue to share back some of the insight from their participation.
A sincere thanks from the entire team.
