Driving ADALM-PLUTO SDR from Android

Question

Hi, I have an ADALM Pluto SDR. I have configured it for USB-Ethernet communications, and plan to connect an Android device to the SDR, and write software to drive the radio. 
 But, I'm wondering how I can drive lib_iio operations on the radio? I have seen the instructions about installing drivers on windows/mac/linux. However, since I can not do this on Android (I assume), what are my options? The only avenue I can think of is to open an SSH session on the radio and remotely execute iio operations. e.g. I did this and ran `iio_info -s` to get the library versions. 
 
 Is this a viable option, or is there a more direct approach via USB? Or perhaps there's a REST API?

If you want to talk to Pluto from any host (PC, phone, ...) you can use the networking backend based on RNDIS or through libusb. RNDIS is part of the Linux kernel. This is what libiio uses under the hood.
