Version for Android

I understand if the proposal is so daring and even out of the priorities or goals for the project but I just want to propose this feature just because the website tells requests of features are welcome. For me, an Android version of Polyglot would be so useful because once you get an idea for a feature in your conlang you just pick up your Android device and implement it instantly though I'm not quite aware of how hard it would be to port

Hey, there are plans for it and some effort has already been made, but sadly due to the project getting stale for now, it is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

A port would require complete redoing the UI to be suitable for mobile, as well as rework of the insides that might be dependent on computer-based libraries.

Well it's okay, as long as we have termux and can run some Linux distro in it and there's already a Linux version. Nonetheless thanks for replying and hope you success with the project
