Tapas Ink Collector

A simple python script that uses adb to open tapas app, watch video ads and collect the ink reward for you. Then rinse and repeat.

disclaimer: this is by no means an efficient or a good way for farming ink. Tapas pricing is reasonable that earning 10 ink per min (maybe even more than a min) is simply not worth it. I merely did this because I wanted to learn how to use ADB. The script is useful if you are short a hundred or so ink.

Notes

• The values in the config file were tested on my Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro which has a 1920x1080 display
  • if your screen is different, The script might fail and in that case you need to change the config. Checkout the Configuring section for more details.
• If you live in a region with little to no ads available on Tapas. I recommended using cloudflare. The Warp feature works as a VPN.
