Are there any? I could find proprietary apps doing it from Google's PlayStore but I really rather use a FOSS alternative if there are any. I tried searching on F-Droid and I couldn't find any.

Just in case you are not aware of typst, there's a modern version of latex called typst. It may not yet have all features but if you can live with >90%, I'd switch immediately

Edit: termux can run typst

Wow, I've never heard of it but it looks interestig thanks! For anyone reading this, here's some links:

Apparently I also found someone made a mobile app editor for Typst, but it's in another app store called Accrescent (I don't know if it's safe? I will do some searches on it to get to know about) The project BeauTyXT official website, GitHub Repository (.apk available on Releases page)

Thanks I didn't know about the app!

Accrescent is alright. Fdroid with reproducible builds is the best of course
