both Android 9+ and Apple IOS have huge limitations on the power usage of smartphone apps, so I seriously doubt if that's even possible without hacking(rooting) our phones.

The limits are there because Apple and Google are wary of any kind of apps that suck too much power, and limits exist even if phones are connected to chargers.

Android running on ARM 4.20 1 May 2020, 20:20:22 UTC 1,484 GigaFLOPS

Not a lot compared to PCs and laptops.
