It's a shame that a lot of bothersome issues are still present after such a long time. Suggestions: 1. Better tracking of contributions, possibly user-based and with highscore lists (compare Folding) across multiple devices, which motivates additionally. 2. The app is still hardly usable on some devices. LG G8S gets so hot after a few seconds that most mornings show me not a single completed calculation. Just give us an opportunity to run the calculations at 50% of CPU power to avoid this.

I've used this app for a long time now and was happy to do so but in the last month or so it randomly switches my selected contributions from cancer to Corona. It hadn't finished the phase it was working on, it just switches. I feel quite strongly about this so if it happens again it's getting uninstalled. Otherwise, the app and idea are 5 star. Vodafone and Dreamlab didn't reply to my concerns when I reached out via Twitter.

Seems to spawn multiple copies of itself and kicks off even when the battery is still low, so phone gets hot and fails to charge properly. There seems to be no way to set a minimum battery level for it to start.

Great app, there's just one problem I have to mention; on the Galaxy S20 when 120hz is enabled and a project is being powered, the app seems to force 60hz while my phone is plugged in, which is a little irritating. Would appreciate a fix.

DreamLab app provides huge analytical power for medical research, with no impact on your Vodafone account, by using your phone's processing power while it's on battery charge. It's a fabulous way to help research at no cost to oneself and one of many reasons why I've been a Vodafone user for 30 years.

I highly recommended this app. Here are a few things I do to make life easier. Before running the app. I take the phone out of its case to allow it to run cooler. I also ensure the phones battery is up to 90% before I allow the app to run. Otherwise I will have a low battery for the morning. The only disappointment is when a new update came through I lost all the data I had contributed. Again it is highly recommended.

About this app

***Temporarily, DreamLab is being used to support research to combat the coronavirus (COVID-19).***

Imagine if we could speed up time in the fight against cancer.

DreamLab is a multi-award winning app that uses the collective power of smartphones to fast track cancer research. With cancer being one of the biggest causes of premature death worldwide, finding answers through medical research is incredibly important. DreamLab exists to help us get there sooner. And the more people who use the app, the faster it works.

HOW IT WORKS

Researchers need supercomputers to scan DNA in immense detail and crunch complex data. When you plug your phone in and power DreamLab, it downloads tiny parts of a huge research project from the cloud to calculate, and sends the results back to the research team. The more people who power DreamLab, the faster we can complete critical research. All you need to do is set up DreamLab once and it will get to work each time you plug your phone in.

We’ve all been touched by cancer. Our best chance of beating it is by working together. And while sleep has always been good for you – with the DreamLab app, it can be good for others too.

Simply download the app (#) and choose which Project you’d like to support. You can also track the Contribution you’ve made and keep up to date with News.

Dreamlab supports cancer research globally, and is powered by the Vodafone Foundation.

* A compatible handset is required. Downloading DreamLab will consume data. Once downloaded, DreamLab can be used when your device (i) is connected to a charging source and (ii) has mobile network or WiFi connectivity.
