About this application

BootBoi is an Android application for controlling the power state of a remote machine from a phone or tablet. Its purpose is narrow: it lets a user turn a computer on or off without going to the machine physically. This can be useful for a desktop, server, or media system that is kept in another room, provided the surrounding network and machine configuration support the needed remote power actions.

The application is published by Elektropepi and distributed under the GPL-3.0-only license. It is intended for Android, so use on other platforms is outside the stated scope. BootBoi is best understood as a small remote-control utility rather than a general administration console; its stated role is limited to starting and stopping a remote machine.
