Requires Android: 2.3 and up
Category: Education
v7.3.5 update:
New to v7.3.5:
- Interface: changes to the layout to conform to new design guidelines.
Should work better on larger displays.
Show slideshow pictures on project details screen.
Remove status tab, show status on each screen.
- Communication between GUI and BOINC client now uses local pipes
instead of TCP, increasing security.
- Communication that contains email address uses HTTPS if possible,
to avoid sending email address in cleartext.
Overview:
Use your phone or tablet to study diseases, predict global warming, or discover pulsars! BOINC harnesses the unused computing power of your Android device and runs jobs for scientific research projects. You can choose from projects in several areas of science, including Yoyo@Home, World Community Grid, PrimeGrid, Enigma@Home, OProject@Home, theSkyNet POGS, Asteroids@Home, and Einstein@Home.
BOINC computes only when your device is plugged in and charged, so it won’t run down your battery. It transfers data over WiFi, so it won’t use up your cell phone plan’s data limit.
