Very cool! The only thing I wish it did was use the camera. I tried 2 phones and a few of the sensors didn't work in Red Mobile. Still, it's very useful for old phones and playing around with things. I don't know if it's possible to install more nodes (the palette is missing.) I'm sure that's a limitation of Android rather than Node-Red.

This is the real deal. I can start the Red Mobile server on my phone, then log in from my desktop and do everything my node-red on the desktop can do, plus more widgets on the dashboard. Creating flows on the phone is possible but not easy, so having the large monitor is a must. Great App. Well worth the price.

Awesome application. Node red on android is great......I have 1 question, I want to send "Speed" in mph out from the phone. The gps node only gives Lat and Long, is this possible?

Sucks. Zero stars. Loads, touch my load to show at stop, says" something went wrong" send app producer back to coding class.

For installing modules the users require to purchase a subscription. In my opinion node red is useless without extra modules, and a subscription is totaly incapable. I wasted $5 for nothing

Did not work on my Pixel 3a. It ran, but I could not get it to distinguish between moving the canvas and moving an object. That made it almost impossible to connect nodes. Instead of drawing a connection, the canvas would just move under my finger. I managed it a couple of times, but sooooo frustrating! A second issue: permissions. The app does not ask for permissions to use sensors, etc., so you have to go into settings and do this manually. Not a big deal once you know, but not obvious either. Overall, great idea, did not work for me.
