Are these versions currently accepting projects? ID: 107228 ·

BOINC Android Client 7.18.1 is the current version and is not in the Google Playstore. You can download it here: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/download_all.php using your favorite web browser on your phone. Once download completed, you should be able to double click on file to install - but you might need to allow permission to do so. Edit to add you should restart your phone afterwards. ID: 107229 ·

Uhm why? It's Android, not Windows. There's absolutely no reason on Android to restart the phone after having installed BOINC. Or any app for that matter. Only when system updates have been installed does the phone need a reboot, all other cases, never. You can find the BOINC app between the other apps (normally swipe up from any empty desktop) and start it by pressing it. ID: 107230 ·
