Am I the only one who things signalling sims should be brought to android so it can be played on the move on a tablet or phone?

Does anybody know of such an app?

There are a few train driving simulators out there which run quite well on the newer phones, it would be good if there was a signalling sim but i'm guessing it will need a lot of thinking power and phones just aren't there yet, either that or someone hasn't seen a need to make one yet.

A signalling sim on a phone would be very frustrating, one full size PC screen only just suffices for SimSig.

If it was a single screen set up - without scrolling - I think a basic signalling sim could work of Android/IOS. If you were talking multiple screens with the need to scroll then I think you'd struggle to move quickly and accurately to the right place on a touch screen.

Phones aren't there yet? Phones are pretty powerful computers these days, and can rival some people's desktop PCs. You've only go to look at the game available in the iOS and Android stores to see how much they're capable of.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 which has a 5in screen, might work ok on that phone as it has a bigger screen, or a 7in tablet like Nexus 7.
