  • DreamLab and cancer research

    By momofsarcomafighter (Pcmac user)

    This is your opportunity to harness the capabilities of your little electronic devices when not in use. Help those you love in a real way by contributing all that brain power to solve calculations related to killing cancer cells! It feels good! Momofsarcomafighter
  • Great app, zero communication

    By Georget48864 (Pcmac user)

    The app is terrific! However, I have tried contacting them via their Feedback email system and I get no reply. I have tried to locate a human to ask some questions and OFFER my support and resources and there is nobody associated with this app. There is no community or forums. No phone number (and this is funded by a phone company!!!). No twitter or other social media account. Very sad. They took the time to build this system and tens of thousands of us are giving them free cpu resources and they cannot even be bothered to communicate when people reach out to offer ideas and support.
  • Great app but didn't clean up after itself

    By Hunna Butta (Pcmac user)

    Works great and doesn't crash, but after several months of using it my phone said it was taking up over 5GB of space. Looks like it's not deleting old downloaded files. Can you guys fix this?
  • Needs Publicity

    By Lives will be saved (Pcmac user)

    A terrific idea that needs wide publicity. Also it should be made clear that app cannot be powered unless phone is plugged into a charger and, when plugged in, not fully charged.
