Android GUI support is planned for 0.6.5. iOS support is planned but not started. Can get some sense of the maturity of different features by looking at the feature and version roadmaps:

It is possible to compile console apps that run on Android right now, though AFAIR this feature isn't fully stable yet.
It's also worth noting that Red can be used as an embedded language. So for example, after 0.6.5 is released, you could have an Android app where the GUI was written in Red, but code managing phone features like GPS could be written in another language.
As for supporting mobile features directly, I imagine some of this will be managed by libraries rather than baked into the language runtime. Worth noting that the module system is planned for 0.8.0. However, it should be possible to write feature rich mobile apps long before then.
