Emacs on Android guide and overview
Install Termux from the emacs Sourceforge first for userland tools. Your emacs app will share a shared app user id and signature with Termux to access its applications with a path variable in a shared home directory, so you get them both built from the same source to avoid package signature conflicts. You cannot do this with the F-Droid version of either app. Make sure your new Termux environment from sourceforge is up to date before you install emacs.
Next check out the README from https://sourceforge.net/projects/android-ports-for-gnu-emacs/files/
for further instructions. But basically grab a Termux apk and a Emacs apk from the "termux" directory in this sourceforge project for your android version. The command 'uname -m' in an adb shell will tell you your device architecture. Install and setup Termux first, then emacs. Allow management of all files in both apps with app info. Configure emacs early-init config like the README tells you, and viola. Here is a screenshot showing It works, in my current emacs phone config. You pinch zoom to resize text per buffer, and the menus work on touchscreen. Keyboard pops up when a buffer is writeable, and can be configured to be always visible. You can have modifier key mode bar buttons too.

A lot of people really like glitchy image aesthetics, but i've noted that image editing tools for adding glitchy effects, or at least what shows up in search results, are kind of bad. I thought I'd share a link to the tool which originally got me into glitch art back in 2012 by Paul Hertz. GlitchSort2 is a bespoke old school java GUI that simultaneously works with command line input/output with dedicated keybinds. It is not the most intuitive UI, but it offers the best array of databending and glitch art techniques in one tool I've ever seen, and certainly doesn't require uploading your image to a website! The original blog and download are either down or unreliable, so here is a wayback machine snapshot of the page. Take your time exploring everything it can do, nothing much better has been made since.

check out my personal website to see a few updates I've added maybe? There is a new Ko.fi donation button design I made others may be interested in.
