After using WindTerm on PC for a long time , I realize the powerful function of WindTerm and I like it very much.So I want to know whether there will be an Android version of WindTerm?

Thank you very much for liking WindTerm.

In theory, since Qt supports Android and iOS, WindTerm must also support them. However, due to the different operating habits of Pad/Phone and PC/Mac, many interfaces and features need to be redesigned. In addition, WindTerm itself still has bugs and hundreds of features waiting to be completed, such as Chat Mode, External Tools, Bookmark, Search in sessions, View pictures, Snippet, Trigger, Macro, Plugin system and so on. Therefore, the release of the Android and iOS version will not be considered for at least this year.

The Apple Silicon/Arm version will be released in the middle of next year. At that time I will reconsider the possibility of releasing the iOS/PadOS and Android version. Please stay tuned.

@kingToolbox, if Android for whatever reason doesn't appeal to you (I doubt that it won't, though) ensure that you look at Termux as a potentially easier way of supporting the platform. I must say that Android support would allow me to finally move to this from Termius.
