How to play Mr Beast\u2019s $25k Finger on the App challenge Instagram: MrBeastPopular YouTuber Jimmy \u2018Mr Beast\u2019 Donaldson has launched an app where anyone can compete to win $25,000. The catch? You have to keep your finger on your phone for the longest time. Mr Beast is known for hosting extreme competitions among his friends for huge amounts of prize money. Often millions of dollars are involved. In the past, Mr Beast has lured his friends into competitions such as \u2018Last to leave the circle wins $10,000\u2019, \u2018Last to leave revolving door wins $50,000\u2019 and \u2018Last to remove hand gets Lamborghini challenge.\u2019 This time, the viewers themselves can take part in a similarly grueling process. \u201cFinger on the App\u201d was launched by Mr Beast on Monday, June 22, but don\u2019t worry, the competition hasn\u2019t started yet. Right now the app is counting down until the competition actually starts on Tuesday, June 30 at 3 pm EST. The app currently includes \u2018practice mode\u2019, so if you\u2019re deadly serious, you can start training right away. If you succeed in keeping your finger on the app for the longest time, you could win \u201cup to $25,000\u201d. But of course, this wouldn\u2019t be a stunt pulled by Mr Beast if it didn\u2019t have a few other complications. According to the app\u2019s website, the final amount of money will be voted on by all the other players. So, if you lose and you\u2019re really bitter about it, you can vote for the prize money to be reduced to $0. It has strict rules: if you leave the app at all, for example, if you have an alarm set, or you get a phone call, you lose. But if you activate your Bluetooth, and you\u2019re within 10 feet (but no closer than 6 feet) of a friend, you both could get up to 3 extra lives. This means that if you lose your streak, you have 10 seconds to put your finger back on the app. The website\u2019s manifesto suitably makes a mockery of the 21st century \u2018glued to your phone\u2019 mindset: \u201cYour phone can provide utterly no utility so long as you play. Finger On The App ties you to your device by the soft pressure of your dominant digit as inexorably as a steel ball and chain, while sealing it beyond your grasp.\u201d The app is a collaboration between Mr Beast and MSCHF, a company that creates viral internet stunts, and \u2018Finger on the App\u2019 will be the company\u2019s 24th project to date. Previous projects include \u2018This Foot Does Not Exist\u2019 where the company trained a computer to generate fake foot pictures, and \u2018Jesus Shoes\u2019, a pair of trainers with soles filled with \u2018holy water.\u2019 The app is only available for Apple users and is not available in all regions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
