https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.miner&hl=en is an app I found while searching android crypto mining. I haven't tried it because I wasn't sure if there was another app or something people knew about. I'm aware the cpu of a single android is very weak. I would have 100+ ghz all legally mine etc. I'm currently doing other thing sto make money but was wondering if android mining is viable. I'm aware of heat problems etc. that could arise. Thanks for taking the time to read and possibly answer. It'd be really cool seeing as how CPU coins typically have far less network difficulty.

I've tried it on my Samsung A-III, it works at about (at least that it registers when shares are accepted) ~1.5KH/s.
To be honest it isn't worth it at all, you don't see your hash-rate and most pools won't even pick up your speed.
The payed for option has a hash-rate monitor and the like, but I haven't tried it and it doesn't seem to function for Google Nexus tablets and phones. (Reviews complain about it quite a bit) So I didn't buy it.
Honestly, just use an old computer, a really old computer and get a better hash-rate.

Hi there, I'm from South Africa.
This means I'm poor, I guess.
