There are some apps which use mining on android.
...and you're better off staying away from them. I can assure you they're most likely duds. You also risk getting spyware on your device, which is especially disastrous if you're involved in crypto.
Even powerful gaming PCs are barely powerful enough for mining, so there's no way you can mine with a mobile device.
You could do something like this though lol:

There was an error in your text, it should have been "

I actually wrote a small script for up-to-date info i can use whenever this discussion starts:
https://www.mocacinno.com/nonspecialisedmininghardware.phpAt the time of writing, an "AMD ATI 7970" running at 100% load 24/7 will mine ~2600 satoshi's A YEAR. If you have a power rate of 5 cents/Kwu (which is really, really, really, really cheap), you'll pay ~$123 more for your power than you'll make from mining, so basically, mining with a gaming PC will cost you money.
