I would like to use emacs and org mode to organise my life. But I think without it being useful on mobile phone, for me is a no go. I will keep using Google calendar for now.

I use Orgzly for my phone.

You can install Termux on Android devices and use Emacs there. I use it on more or less read only on the smartphone and actively on a tablet. Both rsync with my desktop from inside Termux.

And Orgzly has already been mentioned.

I do this on a Gemini PDA-phone with an integrated keyboard. It's great!

Oh my word that device is awesome thanks for this comment!! I know what I’m going to be picking up in the future

Take a look at the AstroSlide 5G phone with integrated keyboard that they are releasing early next year - I have mine on order.

I was very much in the same boat. I’m on iOS, and found beorg, and it is simply splendid. Very active development, powerful customization available, etc.

Do you know about organice? https://organice.200ok.ch/

I want that in a desktop Electron app.

Some of use use Emacs+OrgMode in Termux. Then synchronize with git+ssh. Works well enough for my needs.

you can use it on your phone. I stored my org files in dropbox, and used Orgzly[0] to do the same in the phone.

I will check that. I appreciate everyone for their replies. Is there anything like that for iPhone?

yes for iOS, I suggest you take a look at beorg, it is quite nice for quick editing and note taking. Of course the real magic truely happens when org is paired with Emacs but the app is quite useful for basic tasks.
