Here's some test results for several Android game boy emus: https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/comm g_results/
GBC.EMU (https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta &hl=en) scores the highest by far and it does sound extremely accurate. But since it's based on Gambatte it only uses a 32k sav file which is not enough for LSDJ's file manager and forces you to use save states [ed. which are bogus and lame].
I've emailed the gbc.emu developer asking if it's possible to increase savs to 128k. The email is on this page at towards the bottom: http://www.explusalpha.com/home/gbc-emu Maybe if we all request this minor change it'll get bumped to the top of the list?
Did you ever hear back from the developer regarding 128k savs? I've not had a reply yet.
John GBC emulator seems to work ok with saving, but it doesn't work at all on my Amazon Fire TV, since I can't get my Bluetooth controller configured with it. It's fine on my Nexus 7.
The real thing would be safer. And it's still portable, like all those Android devices. ;-)

Not yet. For android I use "My OldBoy!". The sound isn't perfect by any means but the file system is solid and sounds good enough to do editing or jot down ideas.
I think John GBC is working well, the sound is good. I can't believe all those 0% accuracy on the other test, I think it's bullshit. I'll give retroarch a test anyway (I prefer free and open source software, even if it's quite big in size).
Using the touchscreen is rather ok. On John GBC you can configure the layout and screen so you can increase the button size.
You can also search for "gamepad bluetooth" on ebay, there are cheap and tiny ones like this: http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Bluetooth-Contro

I don't think it's really useful for lsdj, but for gameboy games it's much much better!
The real machine is "better" and more authentic, but using lsdj on smartphone is super great too: you get backlight, it's lighter, smaller and you always have it with you. And there is no extra noise and "huuum" when you're working on it.
note: I've tested retroarch, but I couldn't load my lsdj .sav file so it's not usable for me. And the layout is not very convenient.

I heard back from GBC.EMU developer that he'll try to add 128k sav support in the next update.

Woohoo great news! Hope he does actually add it, but at least he's acknowledged it.
When did you send your email? I've sent 3 to him recently but hasn't replied at all.

I sent one around February and a follow-up about a week ago. Fingers crossed!

I've recently been using gbc.emu on a tab and have to say its pretty usable, all things considering. Perhaps there's a way of converting savestates. For now though ill just get audio exports rather than lsdsngs.
It looks like the sav q has been raised also on a gambatte github as well: https://github.com/libretro/gambatte-libretro/issues/41

I have use something like LSDJ app on android it's called 8tones. Try any good GB emulators that is compatible on your android then it is good to go.
I highly recommend Sunvox and G-stomper (The VA-beast synth-sequencer is very nice now).
Sunvox sequencer and sound design possibilities are DEEP and meaningful.
If you are using LSDJ in an emulator to export .wavs, you will not be able to sample what you have made for use in another program because it does not feature true BPM (only framerate based speed).
I understand some people love LSDJ because of the gamepad based controls and the comfort that offers. In that case PPSSPP emulator will run LittleGameParkTracker (LGPT, not to be confused with "LGBT" -sigh-) on android. That way you will have true BPM patterns you can sample into other programs (Sunvox for example).
