I was trying to complete the search challenge on Microsoft Rewards and it's not counting even though I click on it and when it took me to the search bar I just searched a couple random stuff and it still wasn't working. How do I fix this?

    I am not getting an error msg. It is mainly on my iPad end. I can accumulate my points as usual via my phone but on my iPad I can search all day and it will not reflect that under the search on bing option for the 150 points. I am not sure if it is an error on my iPad or other people are having this issue. I was told to clear my cache which I have done and they said to uninstall but neither of those things have remedied the situation. I might try a few more things on my settings and try on my laptop to see if it does the same thing.

    Wait, did I already respond to this? I don't see what I was responfing to now. I'll leave it up even though I may be repeating myself!

    I'm guessing it's because searches don't seem to work on non-Chromium browsers. (At least they don't seem to on Firefox for the past few weeks, but still do on Edge and Chrome on Windows)

    If they require Chromium now, and don't register in the Bing app (they do on an iPhone, so if you haven't tried that on your iPad, you may want to) but aren't counting for me on Firefox on Windows and browsers on my iPhone (which all use Webkit)

    I think perhaps you are right about this. It has all the ear marks of a program about to be phased out. When the dust settles, I'll go back to Google.

    I have just discovered that there is a "hack app" called Microsoft Rewards Plus Plus. It lets you get unlimited points for doing basically nothing. Is this what cheaters are doing? Is this why my legitimate search points are not registering? Is AI not catching this? Microsoft will not respond to my questions about this or fix my reward points.

    That is a very reasonable answer, maybe that's true.
