Thank you for the feature request. I have been asked about Android support before. :)

At that time I had a quick look at that Android API and concluded:

• Android support requires Java 8+ and which means Android API >= 24.

The reason for this is that the implementation uses Unsafe to read/write data. While API < 24 might provide Unsafe access, it might be limited, which I believe it is .

In order to support API < 24, another way to read/write to memory with the performance of Unsafe would have to be used.

Regarding support for Android API >= 24, I have not tested it, but if you have the hardware and time, you could give it a try. It might happen that it already works.
