Its pretty much easy with Coinomi android wallet where all you need is just to add BTG to the wallet then go to the sweep option where you can then either type in your private key or scan it with the enabling CR Scan option available there. However, you should take a precautionary measure by transferring your BTC out of the address you want to claim the BTG if its still there but don't worry your BTG is still there.

That's pretty easy if you have access to your private key. Just check the youtube video below and you will have the answer for your question.

I installed android on windows, installed coinomi, claimed btg and sent to binance. Didn't find any other way to do this using iOS.

it is completely crazy that there is only this one way over android ...
you can also use an android emulator on pc/mac, but really bad ..
