Background Invariant s answer is a good resource for how everything was started and what was the state of JavaFX on embedded and mobile in beginning of 2014  But  a lot has changed since then and the users who stumble on this thread do not get the updated information  Most of my points are related to Invariant s answer  so I would suggest to go through it first  Current Status of JavaFX on Mobile   Embedded UPDATE JavaFXPorts has been deprecated  Gluon Mobile now uses GraalVM underneath  There are multiple advantages of using GraalVM  Please check this blogpost from Gluon  The IDE plugins have been updated to use Gluon Client plugins which leverages GraalVM to AOT compile applications for Android iOS  Old answer with JavaFXPorts Some bad news first   RoboVM is dead Oracle killed JavaFX on Embedded Devices  Now  some good news   JavaFX still runs on Android  iOS and most of the Embedded devices JavaFXPorts SDK for android  iOS and embedded devices can be downloaded from here JavaFXPorts project is still thriving and it is easier than ever to run JavaFX on mobile devices  all thanks to the IDE plugins that is built on top of these SDKs and gets you started in a few minutes without the hassle of installing any SDK JavaFX 3D is now supported on mobile devices GluonVM to replace RoboVM enabling Java 9 support for mobile developers  Yes  you heard it right  Mobile Project has been launched by Oracle to support JDK on all major mobile platforms  It should support JavaFX as well     How to get started If you are not the DIY kind  I would suggest to install the IDE plugin on your favourite IDE and get started  Most of the documentation on how to get started can be found here and some of the samples can be found here

Desktop  first-class support Oracle JavaFX from Java SE supports only OS X  macOS   GNU Linux and Microsoft Windows  On these platforms  JavaFX applications are typically run on JVM from Java SE or OpenJDK  Android  should work There is also a JavaFXPorts project  which is an open-source project sponsored by a third-party  It aims to port JavaFX library to Android and iOS  On Android  this library can be used like any other Java library  the JVM bytecode is compiled to Dalvik bytecode  It s what people mean by saying that  quot Android runs Java quot   iOS  status not clear On iOS  situation is a bit more complex  as neither Java SE nor OpenJDK supports Apple mobile devices  Till recently  the only sensible option was to use RoboVM ahead-of-time Java compiler for iOS  Unfortunately  on 15 April 2015  RoboVM project was shut down  One possible alternative is Intel s Multi-OS Engine  Till recently  it was a proprietary technology  but on 11 August 2016 it was open-sourced  Although it can be possible to compile an iOS JavaFX app using  JavaFXPorts  JavaFX implementation  there is no evidence for that so far  As you can see  the situation is dynamically changing  and this answer will be hopefully updated when new information is available  Windows Phone  no support With Windows Phone it s simple  there is no JavaFX support of any kind
