This app uses your phone's processing power while charged and plugged in. Instead of leaving your phone on idle, it will be used to help cure diseases such as cancer.
Your phone is used to help solve calculations, and the results are sent over your WiFi connection to Stanford University
Being going for quite a long time now, but I hadn't seen it on HUKD before.
From app description:
"You can take part in the search for groundbreaking cures for diseases such as Alzheimer's, cancer and infectious diseases such as Ebola. Lend your smartphone's processing power to science while you sleep. It costs you nothing. It helps a lot."
