I don't know anything about Android development, but to refer explicitly to UI elements "the Projects tab" and menus, as well as git clone and cd jamulus seems a bit unnecessary/risky to me. Can we not bring it into line with the brevity of the other platforms?

When I originally did this doc, I removed a bunch of stuff I assumed experienced engineers/power users would see as noise, and we would be lumbered with checking in future...

* Install Qt, including the Android support from the Qt installer
* Follow Qt's [Getting Started with Qt for Android](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/android-getting-started.html) instructions
* Make sure Jamulus submodules are present, notably oboe:
`git submodule update --init`
* Open Jamulus.pro in Qt Creator
* Now you should be able to Build & Run for Android.
