There is not an Android version available, as it would require a near-complete rewrite of the existing code base.

An iOS version would be completely impossible without jailbreaking, and possibly not even then, as Apple and iOS are far too restrictive to allow us to mess with other apps, such as Vice City. Also, it would require yet another complete rewrite.

Even if it is possible, iOS requires it's apps to be written in Objective-C while Android apps is written in Java. This would require more developers and more problems to overcome.

It is possible, but yeah, it will require god damn coding pro s, plus, vcmp isn't that popular so noone would waste time.

Yeah, I can imagine fighting with some guys while the camera on the mobile version likes to do random things just to not point on what I want :). Same with driving.
