I deployed the splunk mobile app to Iphone, but not to Android. The process is very similar for Android.
1 - Install Splunk Cloud Gateway from Splunkbase to your Splunk Enterprise
Check the prerequisites and procedure here -> https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Gateway/1.8.0/Installation/Installation
1.1 Splunk service have to be restarted after the Splun Cloud Gateway is deployed

2 - Deploy the Splunk Mobile App to your IOS device
Check the installation procedure here -> https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Gateway/1.8.0/Installation/DeployMDM
a.Log into the Splunk Enterprise instance that you want to register users to.
b. Navigate to the Configure tab of Splunk Cloud Gateway.
c. Click Generate Instance ID File.

Or to Android,
a. Generate an instance ID file for each instance you want to provide Splunk Mobile users access to. Follow the steps in Generate instance ID files.
b. If you're providing access to more than one instance, combine the instance ID files. See Combine instance ID files.
c. Add the Splunk Mobile app to your MDM provider according to your provider's instructions.
d. Add the key-value pair for the Server Config managed configuration to set up Splunk Mobile with MDM, according to your MDM provider's instructions.

Check the procedure to deploy to Android -> https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Gateway/1.8.0/Installation/DeployMDMAndroid
