To use Octave's graphical capabilities, one needs to install a desktop environment, and a VNC server in the GNU/Linux distro, and one also needs to install a separate VNC viewer app in the Android phone (can be installed from Play Store/F-Droid). On many android devices, only the graphics toolkit "gnuplot" is known to work.  Several apps (e.g. [https://github.com/EXALAB/AnLinux-App Anlinux], [https://andronix.app/ Andronix]) are available to easily install the Linux distribution of your choice, and setting up the desktop environment. Refer to the [https://docs.andronix.app/vnc/vnc-basics Andronix docs] for an overview of setting up the VNC server.

'''Optimizing performance''': Installing [https://github.com/xianyi/OpenBLAS/wiki/Precompiled-installation-packages/ OpenBLAS] (with the distribution's package manager) to replace the system's BLAS libraries may tremendously increase the performance of Octave.
