### 1/5 — BoincTasks-M

*2025-10-24*

I cannot make it work on any of my iOS devices. I use “Boinc Manager” on my laptop and it works fine, using the same credentials I tried to use for BoincTasks-M. Would be great to see Boinc projects, tasks and status on my iPhone or iPad, but it doesn’t work.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear that,

The manual https://efmer.com/boinctasks-m-for-android-and-ios/boinctasksm-how-to/
Configure BOINC https://efmer.com/boinctasks-m-for-android-and-ios/configure-boinc/

If that doesn't work, open an issue here, and we'll look into it.
