__TOC__
You can use MartyrPher's Android SMAPI Loader, an unofficial port of SMAPI to Android which supports most SMAPI mods and content packs (including Content Patcher).

===Using mods===
+
That's it! Just launch the game to play with mods.
To install mods, just unzip them into the newly-created <tt>StardewValley/Mods</tt> folder. To launch the game with mod support, just run the SMAPI Stardew Valley icon.
     −
Android SMAPI Loader supports most mods, including the major frameworks like Content Patcher, Farm Type Manager, Json Assets, and PyTK. Stardew Valley Expanded is partially supported.
+
==Update==
 +
Just follow the [[#Install|install steps]] again; the installer will automatically clean up previous versions.

===How do I add and use mods?===
 +
Once SMAPI is installed, install mods by unzipping them into the newly-created <samp>StardewValley/Mods</samp> folder. To launch the game with mod support, just run the SMAPI Stardew Valley icon or tap the floating action button in the installer app.

If you're sure you want to use them, here's how. {{collapse|content=&#32;
+
===Why is there a separate SMAPI for Android?===
 +
The Android version of the game is very custom compared to other platforms, so the official version of SMAPI isn't compatible. There's a [[wikipedia:Porting|port]] of SMAPI to Android developed by MartyrPher and later ZaneYork (see {{github|ZaneYork/SMAPI|main source code}} and {{github|ZaneYork/SMAPI-Android-Installer|installer source code}}). It supports most SMAPI mods and content packs (including framework mods like Content Patcher, Farm Type Manager, Json Assets, and PyTK), but some mods may not be compatible.

===Obtain the APK===

===How do I use mods that need Stardew Valley 1.5?===
First you'll need the APK (''Android Package'') file for your game, which contains the game files. Downloading the APK from third-party websites isn't recommended, since it'll often be outdated or contain malware.
+
Stardew Valley 1.5 isn't released on Android yet, so you'll need older versions of many mods. Here's how to find a compatible version for most mods:
   −
There are two ways to access the APK file:
+
<ol>
 +
<li>Try the latest version.</li>
 +
<li>From the Nexus mod page, click the ''Files'' tab to find all available versions.</li>
 +
<li>Check under "Main Files" and "Optional Files":
 +
# Try the latest file which...
 +
#* says it's for Android;
 +
#* ''or'' says it's for Stardew Valley 1.4;
 +
#* ''or'' says it's for SMAPI 3.7.6 or earlier;
 +
#* ''or'' was uploaded before 21 December 2020.
 +
</li>
 +
<li>Check under "Old Files" (if present):
 +
# Change the sort to "Date Uploaded" and "Desc".
 +
# Try the latest file which...
 +
#* says it's for Stardew Valley 1.4;
 +
#* ''or'' says it's for SMAPI 3.7.6 or earlier;
 +
#* ''or'' was uploaded before 21 December 2020.
 +
</li>
 +
<li>Check the archived files (if any):
 +
<ol>
 +
<li>If there's a "File Archive" button at the bottom of the page, click it.</li>
 +
<li>Try the latest file which matches the previous step. You can run this script in [https://webmasters.stackexchange.com/q/8525 your JavaScript console] to add download links:
   −
* If you have [https://www.androidcentral.com/root root access], it's located at <tt>/data/app/com.chucklefish.stardewvalley-1/base.apk</tt>.
+
{{collapse|&#32;script to add download links|content=<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
* Otherwise install [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ext.ui APK Extractor] and run it. The APK will be extracted to <tt>ExtractedApks/Stardew Valley_com.chucklefish.stardewvalley.apk</tt> on your device.
