There are some things available, and people are working on it. Coincidentally, one of those people is Russell Keith-Magee of Django fame, who founded the BeeWare project.

flet
Flet enables developers to easily build realtime web, mobile and desktop apps in Python. No frontend experience required.
Project mention: From Codecademy to Programming: My First Python Flet App For Managing Shopping List | dev.to | 2025-05-08As part of my final project for the "Fundamentals of Programming" in Codecademy Computer Science course, I wanted to build something practical that could also help me reinforce my understanding of programming fundamentals. With that in mind, I created a simple but fully functional shopping list app using Flet—a Python framework for building beautiful UIs without needing to dive into web development. This app allows users to add products, assign prices, apply sales tax (IVU), and view both subtotals and totals dynamically.

WSABuilds
Run Windows Subsystem For Android on your Windows 10 and Windows 11 PC using prebuilt binaries with Google Play Store (MindTheGapps) and/or Magisk or KernelSU (root solutions) built in.
Project mention: Hey guys, I'm switching to this amazing Linux distro called waydroid_Linux | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-10-06Is this work related to the Windows Subsystem for Android project?
WSA is officially being retired[0], but it's legacy lives on[1].

waydroid
Waydroid uses a container-based approach to boot a full Android system on a regular GNU/Linux system like Ubuntu.
Project mention: Apple Pulls Encrypted iCloud Security Feature in UK | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-02-24In theory you have the likes of the PinePhone where you can run a full Linux kernel [1]. You could then use something like Waydroid to run Android apps [2].
I think the biggest concern is that many of the important apps are anti-emulation, for example banking apps and authentication apps.

pupy
Pupy is an opensource, cross-platform (Windows, Linux, OSX, Android) C2 and post-exploitation framework written in python and C
-
There is a galaxy of projects around Kivy, such as https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android to compile python project for Android (with Kivy or not) or https://plyer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ for cross plateform API (notifications, hardware, filechooser, etc).
For UI there is https://github.com/kivymd/KivyMD for Material design on top of Kivy.
And the team is nice (I've met some of them at PyCon or FOSDEM).
The framework is pleasant to use, and there is a descriptive language, kv, which is really great.
Cross compiling may be painful though (I did it for Android) and the app loading time is a bit long, but it's working.
Some things may be missing in comparison to big frameworks such as Qt, there is no WebView for instance, and accessibility is unfortunately not as good.
It's overall a very good project and it's a pity that it's not more known and used.

Thanks for sharing your experience and links! Based on plyer's GH, it looks like you could use it to develop an iOS and Android app. If it supported more APIs (like Health Kit, accessibility), I would try it in a heartbeat.
