Hi,  
Does android mode work in processing 4?

I have setup processing 4 and added Python mode, R mode and REPL mode successfully but Android mode is grayed out and there is a message indicating that 4.2.1 is not compatible.

Is there a work-around?

Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers.

It works now. As of now, it will be shown as `Android Mode for Processing 4 4.5.0 alpha 3` in the contribution manager of processing 4. There is a tweet regarding this, which you can check here on the official website of Processing for Android  
[https://android.processing.org/](https://android.processing.org/)

or tweet by the official Twitter handle regarding the alpha release-
