Here is an update about the IOS port
http://paulbeachsblog.blogspot.fr/2013/09/an-update-about-firebird-on-ios.html
For Android you can compile the firebird client (libfbclient.so.2) today and can be used in Delphi/C++/Qt applications http://mapopa.blogspot.ro/2013/09/building-firebird-client-for-android.html
For the Embedded/Classic version there will be a lot of issues to be solved : Check the devel report

But they have managed to supply, now, IBLite for both iOS and Android with what looks like a full feature set.
How have they done that with what appears to be very limited resources and commitment? And what magic might they have pulled off to
move the server into this arena? Is this not as difficult as we currently think? For Firebird?>>
As Alexey says - define limited resources, in comparison to the Firebird project, Embarcadero are massive.
BTW I have a port of Firebird to IOS, just finding it difficult to test at the moment, as the Mac I use to do the cross
port has died (logic board fault).
