Node offline? Get it back online.
Most outages are one of these six quick fixes — most nodes are back within a minute or two.
App missing or misbehaving? Reinstall it — it's listed as Unetwork App:
Start here Quick checklist
- Keep the phone powered and connected — mobile data (SIM) or Wi-Fi both work fine, and operators report SIM data often earns slightly more.
- Exempt the Unity Nodes app from battery optimisation so the phone never puts it to sleep — exact steps below.
- If the app shows offline despite good internet: force-close it and reopen — it sometimes needs that to reconnect.
- Reopen the app after phone restarts and OS updates — it doesn't always auto-start.
- Avoid battery-saver, data-saver and scheduled sleep/bedtime modes on a node phone — they all suspend background apps.
- Opt into every task you're eligible for (Caller ID Testing, SMS Testing) — they add to baseline uptime earnings.
Set and forget Settings for your device
🤖 Android (all makes)
- Settings → Apps → Unity Nodes → Battery → choose Unrestricted (older versions: Battery optimisation → Don't optimise).
- Settings → Apps → Unity Nodes → Mobile data → allow Background data and Unrestricted data usage, so Data Saver can never block it.
- Keep Battery Saver and Data Saver off on this phone.
- In the Recents screen, long-press the Unity Nodes app and lock/pin it if your phone offers that.
- Digital Wellbeing Bedtime mode / scheduled Do Not Disturb can pause apps overnight — switch those schedules off on a node phone.
🍎 iPhone
- Settings → General → Background App Refresh → set to Wi-Fi & Mobile Data, and ON for Unity Nodes.
- Keep Low Power Mode off — it suspends background refresh.
- Settings → Mobile Data → make sure Unity Nodes is allowed.
- Skip Sleep/Focus schedules on a node phone — and on a dedicated device, leaving the app open on screen while on charge gives the best uptime.
📱 Samsung (One UI)
- Settings → Battery → Background usage limits → turn OFF "Put unused apps to sleep", and make sure Unity Nodes is not under Sleeping apps or Deep sleeping apps — add it to Never sleeping apps.
- Settings → Battery → More battery settings → turn off Adaptive battery.
- Also apply the general Android settings.
⚡ Xiaomi / POCO / Redmi
- Settings → Apps → Manage apps → Unity Nodes → enable Autostart, and set Battery saver to No restrictions.
- In Recents, long-press the app and tap the padlock so clearing recents doesn't kill it.
- Also apply the general Android settings.
