AFAIK, Plyer will give you access to native APIs like accelerometers, but not to the native GUI layer. An alternative approach is VOC (http://pybee.org/voc http://pybee.org/voc) - this is compiler that takes Python code, and output Java bytecode. This means you can use the Android native UI components, because your Python code becomes indistinguishable from code written in Java. Combine with Briefcase (http://pybee.org/briefcase http://pybee.org/briefcase), and you can get an Android app with one command; combine with Toga (http://pybee.org/toga http://pybee.org/toga), and you can get a cross platform app using native system components.
