There is no working GC for android at this time.
Win$, Mac or Linux are the options.
Maybe it’s running on some google OS, everything is google.

I’ve read in posts about the chrome book running.
What exact model do you have? Perhaps there is a chance to install win or linux.

Only had little time for a search but the lack of what I did not find and the little I found suggests that there is no, or no easy way to put a windows or a linux on it.

I thought we did have a port for android, what happened to it?

From what I remember there is an issue with keeping the serial up that is unresolved.
We actually got Ground Control to run on Android, but making the serial connection play nice was looking like a lot of work so it got sidelined a little bit. It is still on the ToDo list!
I highly recommend using Dropbox or something similar if you have internet in the shop. It’s pretty slick to be able to put a file in a folder on my computer, then walk over to the machine and open it

Edit: I searched the forum, found the post, copied the link, but all I would have needed was to scroll up. Time for me to go to bed.
