I am using BoincTasks for Android 1.1 Beta, and I was expecting to work with the default BOINC 7.4.53.
Is this on the todo list, or is it suppose to work only with Boinc for Android?

The Android App or the BOINC Client, for both I can say no. BOINC Client 7.16.11 is now the default
I can no longer compile the 7.4.53 BOINC Client otherwise I would include it.

I am a bit confused.
I've downloaded https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dl/boinc_7.16.3.apk but is not detecting it.
Is it supposed to work with berkeley software, or only with your Boinc for Android variant?

BoincTasks only works with BOINC for BoincTasks
And with BoincTasks for Android

OK We have
BOINC for Android the "official" App.
---------------------------------------------------------------

BOINC for BoincTasks an app for the BOINC Client only. It has nothing to do with the official app excepts that it runs the BOINC Client.
BoincTasks for Android a GUI for the local BOINC for BoincTasks app and external computers.

I just found the BOINC client 7.4.53 and added it to the upcoming 1.9

BoincTasks only works with BOINC for BoincTasks
And with BoincTasks for Android
Do you have any plans to make BoincTasks for Android work with Berkeley BOINC?
It would save me a lot of time by installing it on the rest of android devices (some of them headless) and manage everything from windows

I stopped working on the Berkeley BOINC for now.  Berkeley BOINC can no longer be updated in the Play Store, so that doesn't solve any problems.
If possible and I think it is, Amazon Appstore might be an option for you https://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-install-amazon-appstore-on-your-android-device/
