Electroneum released mobile mining App on Android and Apple. That's looks pretty cool. Have you tried that and what do you think about that?

This is not worth the risk. As we all know mining using your phone could potentially damage your mobile device. It's not really worth it. I haven't tried it and won't be trying it cos I know the outcome of what will happen to my device if I mine these coins with my phone.

To clear the air on some of the previous posts in this thread;

1. Make sure you set your power settings on your phone to allow the app to run in the background
2. It takes about an hour or more to start showing some earnings.
3. The app is meant to run in the background. It benchmarks your hashrate then airdrops accordingly. I have found if you keep it open and dont minimize it then yes, your phone gets a little bit hot. Keep it minimized
4. The price needs to pump for the earnings to be something to really get excited over, but still for an app in the background its a good deal.
5. When leaving it running in the background I have not noticed any change in my battery life.

Also remember
This is simulated mining, this is basically just an airdrop

Thanks for this very clear explanation. I might try to test it myself in the future. As long as my phone won't overheat and I'm cool with it. Can't risk breaking my device just to get small amount of these coins but maybe experiencing it myself will make me change my mind with regards to mobile mining. I know its not really profitable but I just want to experience it myself.
