AndroBOINC

BOINC Manager for Android

This is a remote control of (PC) BOINC clients from Android device.

This light-weighted manager for BOINC clients:

- can connect to BOINC core client via WiFi or mobile network

- displays status of client: projects, tasks, transfers and messages

- provides basic controls for client

Please note, that this is NOT the BOINC client (it cannot do computation on your Android device). If you want to do computation on Android, please use BOINC application from U.C. Berkeley.

Configuration of BOINC client can be complex, see detailed instructions in Wiki https://github.com/palo-m/androboinc/wiki/AndroBOINC-Setup

BOINC client can send a lot of data traffic to AndroBOINC, so please be careful about autorefresh feature when you are on mobile network and you don't have flat data plan (included network usage counter can give you hint about data volume).

Please report any issues or propose enhancements via application issues page https://github.com/palo-m/androboinc/issues
