Can AHK run on a mobile phone?
No.

Is it possible to trigger some actions on your Windows computer by executing an app on your phone? Yes, there are a number of options.
If you describe what you are planning to do, people might have specific suggestions.

You can also use an app to remotely login to your Windows computer and interact with your AHK script almost as if it was running on your phone. But as gregster pointed out, it depends what on what you want to do whether that approach will meet your needs.

Good point, thank you, boiler. :thumbup:

Something else that comes to mind are Android emulators (like for example Bluestacks) that you can run on your computer.
They can be manipulated by AHK by sending clicks and keys - it's not ideal, and the app or game won't actually be on your phone, but in some cases it might work good enough.

But that's again another segment of possible use cases.
