I believe I tried it once on my inexpensive windows tablet. Chirp ran fine, but I believe the prolific clone usb did not work with the tablet. Now that I've installed win 10 on it, I'll try again. Maybe a better quality usb would work.

Paulo, are you saying that it is not likely that software will never be developed for Android? That would be quite disappointing if so. I wonder are there any tablets that run Windows! would it work that way?

It's just a matter of the type of radio (driver on cable or on radio)
and the driver used. If it recognizes it as an COM port, it should work.
The software is the tricky part.
