Description knyipab 2024-09-29 04:25:25 UTC 
Python Android support is mentioned in forum posts as the difficulty to enable Krita plugin on Android. 

This obstacles should be removed as Python 3.13 is going to be released in few days (1 Oct 2024). It will add official support for Android (https://docs.python.org/3.13/whatsnew/3.13.html). 

Properly placing and configure paths of Python (and PyQt) should be enough to enable plugin for Krita. 

Although I understand that the team might be focusing on migrating to Qt6, it would exciting to see this feature available on Android.

"Properly placing and configure paths of Python (and PyQt) should be enough to enable plugin for Krita. " it's not that simple: Krita embeds Python, and doesn't call the python interpreter. We also used to have a developer dedicated to working on Krita on Android and ChromeOS, but he's currently too busy with his university courses to work on Krita.
