How Sharing Internet Bandwidth work ?
If you remember the days when we didn’t have internet in all mobile phones, and we asked our friends to share Hotspot to use internet. Same is the logic here, but instead of Hotspot, the devices work as internet sharing devices over internet where we allow third party apps to let their users use our internet. Most of the sharing apps provide VPN services, allowing access to blocked sites, intel gathering through our internet connected devices.
They not only provide VPN, but also research, where there customers use the services, to check data that might not be available directly. For example, let say there is a product and you as a business man, need to research on where your product is widely used, or how popular your product is. So using these devices, you can get multiple data, across different regions easily. That’s how they gather information. and in return we earn money for sharing our internet.
Earning apps to share internet bandwidth
There are multiple apps available on the market, but here we are with apps, that we actually tested ourselves and earned a few dollars.
1. EarnApp
EarnApp by Bright VPN allows anyone to earn by sharing internet bandwidth by connected devices through app installed on phone, PC or mac. There are two modes to earn
- Fixed mode – where you earn 5$ monthly
- Variable mode – Where you earn 0.10$ per GB
We have tested both and we can say if you are unsure, then trying with fixed income is a good choice. Though you can run multiple apps, if you have multiple internet connections. Payments are made via Paypal and you can request withdrawal when you have earned 5$.
Available on Devices
- Linux
- Windows PC
- Android
- Raspberry PI
- IOS
- MacOs
Its recommended to run it on a PC as the power usage is there and may drain battery fast.

3. Honeygain
Honeygain is the oldest app that works same and allows you to earn income by sharing your internet. Honeygain provides internet sharing, along with Cloud Delivery for providing video content over CDN. So recommended if you have a high quality internet bandwidth or more than 100 MBPS with you.
You can still run Internet sharing without Cloud delivery but earnings will be less. You earn honeygain points for data spent. There are two ways to get payment
