I've built a public beta version of Pale Moon for Android (ARMv7 or later). If you are feeling adventurous and want to give it a try, you can do so by downloading the package from the Pale Moon FTP server and installing it. I may add it to the Google Play store later on, but for now the installation method isn't much more difficult.
Note: if you haven't done so yet, you should enable the installation of Apps from "unknown sources" in your Android system settings, under Security, to allow Apps to install from other sources than the Google Play market.
How to install:
This will add a Pale Moon icon to your Android device which you can tap to open the browser.
Known issues with this beta version:
Constructive feedback appreciated! If you have an issue to report, please be descriptive, thanks!
EDIT: Sync should work to synchronize with your Pale Moon desktop version.

Known issues with this beta version:

To make it work, you will have to go to about:config and toggle general.useragent.compatMode.firefox to true
