Mobile mining app is designed to leverage a device's built-in battery and CPU sensors to monitor device temperature and ensure that it does not overheat. If a smart mobile device approaches overheating, the user will receive a notification'that they are temporarily "off" from mining. However, unlike in a Proof of Work (Pow) only consensus mechanism where a computer must be constantly doing work in order to earn rewards (which can lead to increased risk of overheating) Phoneum's customized algorithm integration of Proof of Time (PoT) will enable miners to continue to earn rewards. While the mining function in the app is not active, it is still functioning as a node while the app is open and thus Proof of Time (PoT) applies to help miners to continue to earn rewards ..
