You can earn COIN even while you're not using the app!
We have been continuously testing the best way to integrate this feature.
Your COIN collecting will continue when you have to take a call, check social media, or even lock your device.
Background Rewards are variable, and these rewards are not worth as much as Geomining in the foreground.
To earn the most out of Background Rewards, be sure to allow Background location permissions on your phone to Always On to earn 10x the base amount!
The Background Rewards feature automatically kicks in anytime you leave the COIN app and will collect for 3-9 hours after leaving.
Background Rewards aren't delivered until you have been away for at least 5 minutes.
