I'm always for some fun, I just  thought I should tell the OP what was
going on. :-) And Qt can work on Android, with some effort.

But you're absolutely right, mobile development can be quite harder
than desktop, and the OP has some studying to do. I'd recommend he
first tried some desktop development, a little googling on tkinter or
PyQt can do him good, since he wants to learn about GUI development,
even though it might not directly translate to mobile developtment.
