Thanks for the report. This package isn't currently a priority, but if anyone else wants it too, please click the thumbs-up button above and subscribe to this issue.

I recommend you use the standard Android user interface toolkit with Chaquopy. Here's a simple example of that, and here's a video where I discuss the example in detail.

However, if you really want to use PyQt5 on Android, have a look at the pyqtdeploy project.

I wanted to use some packages which are not listed on chaqoupy yet. Is there any other way in which I can bypass the pip install either by directly pasting package files somewhere in folder. Could you please help me with this?

mhsmith commented 3 years ago

Which packages?

Chaquopy is unlikely ever to support PyQt. For advice, please see my comments above.
