I want to change my phone and don't want to have tasks error. I can pause downloading new tasks on my computer, can I do that on my mobile phone?

Apparently if you go to the Projects list, there should be a "Allow new tasks/No new tasks" as an option in the menu.
This is for BOINC versions 7.4.41 and 7.4.53.
There were issues reported about dark text on a darker background making the option almost impossible to see, i don't know if it has been sorted or not with later releases, or applies to your version of BOINC.
