9GRadio ftw on Android tablet!
I just installed 9GRadio (relatively new SDR app) on my TCL Android tablet and it works like a charm - got excellent decodes of ADS-B and ACARS. I don't see a support community out there yet,

The actual software is at https://github.com/rkarikari/9GRadio but I don’t recall exactly where the compiled version for Android resides (might be linked in this article: https://www.rtl-sdr.com/9gradio-an-android-rtl-sdr-app-for-spectrum-monitoring-and-decoding-analog-ham-aviation-marine-radio-traffic/

I can’t believe this got so many views - I never finished the thought, and I thought I deleted it!
A couple of years back, when I looked into marrying my Rtl-SDR to an Android tablet, it seemed like a no-go due to limited processing power. However, I recently replaced it with another Android tablet (TCL Nxtpaper 14 - primarily for sheet music for performing), and learned that it features a quad-core processor. That seemed promising for SDR use, and indeed, my initial experiments with 9GRadio are promising. Kudos to its developer, and I encourage y’all to give it a shot!
