Getting Started with Qt on Android
summary
Step-by-step setup for Qt on Android: install Qt with an Android for armv7 kit, Android SDK/NDK (Android Studio recommended), and point Qt Creator to JDK/SDK/NDK; enable Gradle on macOS/Linux. Use AVDs with use host GPU for OpenGL/QML testing; expect emulator startups of 30s–minutes. Choose one of three deploy methods: Ministro service (shared libs, breaks on Android 5.0), bundle Qt libs in APK (larger ≈15MB of used modules), or local deploy (dev only). Manage AndroidManifest (min API 13 for multimedia), sign with a keystore and back it up.
