Are you aware of anyone actively working on an Android development version at this time ?

Thanks

is it installable? (and can you switch to SD card for storage, and control BOINC remotely, as asked in a thread years ago? I created the remote_hosts.cfg, but doesn't seem to work because of course there's already a graphical version one may not be able to close separately.)

No, there are no test binaries of it yet.

SD card:
It's impossible to do on non-rooted device because SD card by default has no execution permissions.
Besides, modern telephones have less and less optional SD card space, but instead come with 256GB and more of internal storage, all usable.

As for remote operation, Efmer is working on that.
