Does Roon work on Android-based DAPs?

1

If I got an Android-based DAP (any… iBasso, HiBy, etc.), could I download the Android Roon app from the google play store onto that DAP and then play Roon on that DAP (when I’m on home network)?

I sometimes use my iPad at home to stream Roon to it (and play to headphones via external DAP/Amp connected to the iPad), and I am wondering whether the same would be possible to achieve with Roon streaming to an Android Roon app that is installed on an Android DAP, so I can listen of that DAP to a headphone while controlling what I’m listening using a Roon app that is installed on that DAP.

sorry for the basic question… thanks!

I once tried this and it ran but the resolution was such that it was very hard to use. The screen size of the DAP I used made it really hard to read and control Roon. It was a while ago and I don’t even remember which DAP I used for this. So yes it ?works? but…

I eventually just used my phone to an iFi xCAN and called it a day.
