+### Android
+
+You can easily run `llama.cpp` on Android device with [termux](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux).
+First, obtain the [Android NDK](https://developer.android.com/ndk) and then build with CMake:
+```
+$ mkdir build-android
+$ cd build-android
+$ export NDK=<your_ndk_directory>
+$ cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$NDK/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake -DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=android-23 -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-march=armv8.4a+dotprod ..
+$ make
+```
+Install [termux](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux) on your device and run `termux-setup-storage` to get access to your SD card.
+Finally, copy the `llama` binary and the model files to your device storage. Here is a demo of an interactive session running on Pixel 5 phone:
