I think Rust is a great language, but until I see a successful app ecosystem start there's no way I'd consider it for a mobile app.
I think Kenny Kerr's Rust/WinRT project is going to be great on Windows (and Kerr already proved he can accomplish this kind of project with C++/WinRT), but Rust's language model is so fundamentally different from iOS and Android's that I can't imagine it being feasible any time soon.
