I toyed with Kotlin for Android development. It is very promising. It solves many of my annoyances with Java while keeping what is working. I work in an 8 engineers Android team, switching to Kotlin for our Android app is not on the table at all though. Our huge codebase and complex build script can't be easily retuned to another language, even one compatible with Java and it is an added liability we don't want to deal with. If Google were to adopt it, it could very quickly gain steam for Android development.
