This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on Android. See also:
Choose a port
The Android version of the game is very custom compared to other platforms, so the official version of SMAPI isn't compatible. There are two unofficial ports of SMAPI for Android, by MartyrPher and ZaneYork. They use different installers, but both use MartyrPher's port as a base so mod compatibility should be equivalent. Both support most SMAPI mods and content packs (including framework mods like Content Patcher, Farm Type Manager, Json Assets, and PyTK).
Generally, you can use whichever port has the newer SMAPI version. When you switch from one port to the other, uninstalling the previous one first is recommended (but there's no need to remove mods).
MartyrPher's port
MartyrPher's port is currently out of date, so you should use ZaneYork's port instead. (See choose a port above for more info.)
