Hi, You can use Xamarin to write Android apps in C#. I think it's free now. I used Xamarin some time ago and to be fair, I didn't like it. I switched very fast to Android Studio to write in Java. But if you really want to write in C#; go for Xamarin.

You need to find a suitable complier to be able to make C# codes run inside android. Xamarin is one. But I suggest learning Java to make android apps.

if you know c# install xamarin, I believe the latests versions of visual studio will include it, I used xamarin to develop android apps before microsoft bought it, it was pretty simple as you actually write c#
