When it comes to mobile apps, I generally recommend native (swift/kotlin) or Flutter, they all have good tooling and have good performance

In this case though, they are all curly braces languages and don't have much in common with python.

If you don't want to learn at least 1 new language, there are some python libraries/frameworks which can be used for mobile dev. Like Kivy or Beeware. I've never used any of these though so I can't tell you how good/bad they are.

Just out of curiosity: which do you think is closer to Python? Kotlin or Swift?

Not knowing wither, my hunch would be to say Kotlin. But I am curious.

Kotlin and Swift have similar syntax and neither are like Python to be honest. If I were to pick one, Kotlin all the way. You can do a fair amount of back-end work with itas well.
