30-40 minutes' work will not pay the rent, but this might interest someone and be a bit of fun. It was brought to my attention, but I don't own 'devices' like this. :)

It is definitely a legitimate company and not a scam thing:

====================================

Appen has a new speech recording task for native speakers of UK English living in the UK, and we would like to invite you to take part in this project. The speech data collected will be used to train and enhance speech recognition programs that are supporting a variety of different software (e.g. search engines, virtual assistants, etc.).

Participants will record themselves reading 200 short phrases on a free recording app from Google Play Store. Participation takes only 30-40 minutes on average.

This is a paid opportunity and you will need to have a PayPal account in order to receive payment.

*This project requires use of a recording app for Android devices.*
Please note this is not currently valid on any other devices or operating systems (e.g., iPhone or iPad).

If you are 18 or older, have a valid Android device and would like to participate, please click on the following link to provide your information:

https://appen.formstack.com/forms/12457_ukenglish

After doing so, an Appen Project Manager will provide instructions to qualified participants.

If you know someone who might be interested in this task, please feel free to forward them the link above.

We are looking forward to working with you!
