Hello everyone.
I wonder if is there something like Lyx for android, I saw there are latex editors but they're just IDEs for writing latex code.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Welcome to the forum!

I think LyX is not yet available for Android or iOS. Though Qt is supported on Android. But a user interface for a touch device may be different than a user interface that works with a mouse.

The only project similar to LyX I know it's TeXmacs. But also in that case I think it's running on Linux and Unix but not Android.

Perhaps give LaTeX a shot? It's worth the effort.

You might consider using LyX on rollapp, if running in the cloud is an option for you:
https://www.rollapp.com/app/lyx

I have tested it briefly and it works well.

If you do use it I'd be curious to know your thoughts.

Thanks for the info. It is good to see Lyx in the cloud.
