DreamLab

I had posted a previous negative review due to the app killing my phone whilst charging but it seems they have fixed that issue. And because of that I cannot find a fault with this updated version. Great app for an even greater cause. Good luck to the researchers!

Interesting concept that I hope really helps. I've yet to put my phone on charge to see how it gets on but that has me wondering why there's no option for idle processing when not charging. I have 30gb of 4G data a month too and am restricted to offering only 500mb. I'd happily give more for the cause.

A user before me pointed out a mistake in the notification which tells you how many problemS you solved. His comment dates back from May 2016. Untill now it is not fixed. Generally the idea behind the app is superb but cmon you have a typpo in your app.... This is not serious. Also the lack of further info on what is happening while the app is running raises my concern. I will stop using this app for now.

App is simple to use. Hope to receive more app updates and more updates on our progress in fighting cancer. Also allow us to run the research while not charging... Update: desktop app for this would also be cool... occasional glitch... when the cancer research stops. Also allow us to use the app to clear ram so this thing can be run faster.

I have been using this app for some time and it STILL acts up. Out of nowhere, it will say that it's working and shows me how long it has been working but won't have solved any problems. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app fixes this but this happens about once a week now and is becoming very annoying. Please fix this.

Brilliant app! If some people have problem with heat, it is up to their phone. Mine phone is cold, all sensors showing around 30 degress, battery also. It would be even better if i could turn it on while its not charging. For instance to set it to stop working when my battery is 40%.

After upgrading to Android 6.0.1 (from Android 6) the app isn't working properly. It seems to stop working after I lock the screen. I've sent an email through the DreamLab app, and I'll update this review if a solution is found. Until then, it is still a good app and a great cause!

It nice being able to give a hand to researchers even if they are far away. I just turned on unlimited WiFi. This makes DreamLab use my multicore CPU. The solutions have been really finishing faster. The only problem is that charging overnight can hurt your cellphone battery. So I charge during the day and start DreamLab when charging starts. Then DreamLab runs until my cellphone finishes charging. My battery isn't damaged and lots of computing gets done. Samsung S7s for science!

I keep submitting this information, but I receive no response. I feel obligated to quit using my electricity to support an app that doesn't communicate. NOW STUCK ON 38.3%. HELP

It's a great app and makes me feel that I am really helping. Seems to have stopped working again though and can run for hours but still stuck half way through a problem. I'll give it a few days to see if there's an update and then try reinstalling

After doing almost 2000 problems and nothing has changed in the settings, it no longer works. It was a good app. I deleted the app and we downloaded it and have since done another 2500 problems. Updates on how close we are collectively and also a percentage to see how much individually we have achieved.

Not only a worthwhile cause, but well-designed and stylish. Install it and forget it - it will run only when your phone/tablet is fully charged and (if you like) only when it's on wi-fi. Should be standard in all devices - so much computing power is wasted.

Fairly stable app that contributes to a great cause. I am running the DreamLabs app + Folding @ Home app on a Moto G gen3. Most of the time when i see the app freeze is when the Google Play auto updates large apps in the background.

An amazing app which allows you to do your bit. Had it on consecutively for a few nights now and while it's in use and charging. I can't say what in actually doing but problems are being solved and I think that's good! Can't wait to help more.

Works perfectly! (Edit: Not anymore... it doesn't startup by itself when battery is 100% and the data doesn't reset back to zero when the month reset date rolls by) One hangup I have is that although I'm with Vodafone, I'm unable to use more than 500MB. Even if it means it will eat into my data if Vodafone is not willing to make >500MB free (assuming this is partly the reason for the limit), you should let the user decide this with fair warning.

I have found that once I hit the 500Mb per month WiFi usage it does not reset at the reset date. You are only able to use Vodafone data set at unlimited. Yes ... I know it is Free data usage but I only turn my data on when I need to.

The monthly reset doesn't work. And also the mobile data cap could be removed, because some people, I amongst them, have unlimited data so I don't use wifi, but I'd still like to submit the benefit of my phone.

After my first week, I saw that overall project status jumped from 36.XX to 38.3%. It was very motivating to have the feeling of contribution to this increase. But this week, the status seems to be stuck at this level.. for days.. even when the "problems solved" counter is rising. Is it likely that multiple devices on same WiFi network somehow corrupt each others' data?

Great idea. Works well on my Xperia. I did find it would run but stopped solving problems the last few months. Uninstall and reinstall seems to have fixed that.

The app keeps shutting down with plenty of access to WiFi and power sources. On the LG G4. Help I want to continue assisting with research.

Battery issue fixed. Thank you. My phone stays on the charger if I'm not on at my desk or in my house and Dreamlab stays running the whole time. Have asked all my FB friends to install it, too.

Only engages when phone is above 95% charge Would like if when setting up you could turn off mobile data but you can from the setting page once setup(I'm not with vodafone) Would like to see HIV options and genetic illnesses added. So much potential. Great work Vodafone!!!

You guys are amazing! Every idea I've posted in a review has been added, and I have no clue what could make this app any better. You are the best app developers I have come across and I am glad to have this app on my phone. On a side note, this app does not slow down your phone at all, people. Just download and help support cancer research! (I have external batteries so I'll be processing all day, every day.)

Imagine the power of harnessing all that unused smart phone compute. Similar to projects before it like folding@home, but the effort to get started is so low. Great app, great cause. It would be interesting to get information about the calculations taking place.

good cause. but app does not auto start even when fully charged. also missing monitoring capability. showing a clock is not helpful. job log. job result can be helpful. also have a widget or keep in notification space is helpful to start contribute more.

All issues have been solved with the introduction of new app features in the latest update. Great work Vodafone for listening to feedback :)

Still needs to be initiated to get it going sometime. But this version much better than the last. I like knowing progress of the project and number of problems I've helped solved.

I like that you can manually start it driving even if your phone isn't fully charged. Doesn't start independently anymore, even if charged.

Works well, unobtrusive, let's you give back to the community. I like that you can see how many problems you've helped solve & what percentage of the project completion is done

It looks that you just making us fool. You are just trying to get users data only for your benefit. 1. If this app is for research purposes then why it needs our personal data? 2. The system which is hanged to give us inputs whole the time to many users I think that system/ server can process more efficiently and fast rather just sending / receiving the data. 3rd I don't believe that you are doing good with us but for a while I accept you doing a sympathy to the victims but if is it free ?

I have over 1300 problems solved! A brilliant app!

I love that I can help with cancer research through this app. I'm constantly updated as to the problems I've help solve and the % a research project is to completion. I know I am making a difference and it feels good!!

I like the new display, is there any way to also display the old stats of how many users and how much the research is being sped up?

This app has been much improved. So it seems like the notification would just turn on once 95% for battery is reached. update: but this is not always the case. sometimes, the batt has been charged 100% and data crunching doesn't start.

Let the users donate more data. We can really make it go faster if you just let us send GBs a day like 10 gb or more a day. Something to really make a difference. For the people with wifi and fats Internet

I love helping out but cant till the mobile limit is reset. Data upload to your servers doesn't count against my plan so I'd like a greater mobile data limit than 500mb please, 1gb 2gb or even 5gb would be great!

However, since update, only works for about an hour each night despite unlimited Wi-Fi access and charging. I make sure I leave the app open on my phone...

Feels good to be able to help just a little! Wish I could see more details about the problems being solved

This app works great. It does not interfere in any way with the normal, or even heavy use of my phone. There is absolutely no reason to not download this app - unless of course, you like cancer.
