@kuzeyron I don't have any experience with recipes. I can't provide any useful feedback.

It's quite simple to try recipes for testing. I suggest you download the zip package from the branch and unpack it. Then you just have to tell Buildozer that you want to use p4a from a path which is the location of the branch you just downloaded and unpacked.

I'm on team apple. I don't have a system for test.

Then you can probably use the software from https://www.genymotion.com/

What's the update @T-Dynamos ?

@kuzeyron This PR was just a POC for thorvg on android. I am still waiting for them to decide what to use for kivy: python or cython implementation.

Right. Thanks for the heads-up!

Just a quick update:
ThorVG and thorvg-python have both fixed a number of issues I have raised. These are incorporated into thorvg-python V1.1.2 The 3 PRs (Svg Image provider, SvgWidget, LottieWidget) have been updated to take advantage of these fixes. Perhaps the recipe needs to be updated to use this v1.1.2

ThorVG has added a new api in response to an issue: thorvg/thorvg#4217 I have not yet had an opportunity to test this - but will shortly. The proposed solution looks good. This has not yet been released, but it is merged onto main branch on ThorVG. (My code does NOT rely on this features).

My plan is to create a minimal Cython wrapper for ThorVG, and integrate this into Kivy. I have not yet started this development. All of the pushed code works with thorvg-python V1.1.2.
