Newbie here and found some apps on Android for those learning rust. Both are free with no ads and can be used offline. The IDE has only 100+ downloads, so I'm assuming most people here won't know about it.

Rust IDE:

The rust IDE is totally free with no ads. If you want extra themes or more than 2 tabs, you have to pay. I use the free version. It's very simple to set up and downloads all the crates and such that you'll need. Don't expect it to be a replacement for Visual Studio Code. There is no syntax highlighting, just a barebones compiler, but it is fun to use if you just wanna lounge around with your phone.

Official Rust book:

This is the regular official rust book packaged to use on Android. You can store the last chapter you read by going into the menu and selecting 'Set as Home'. There is a bug where the chapter will reset if the phone's orientation is changed, so make sure it's locked while you use it.

If there are any other Android apps for rust that you guys can recommend, I'd like to hear of them.
