I happen to have Cygwin and its Python package(s) installed. Do you recommend not using this, and to install "Windows Python" to use with cmd?
I'd say "use whatever works". A "Windows Python" install will definitely work. A "Cygwin Python" installation may work, so if that's what you have installed - and it's working - then sure, keep using it!
But I wouldn't recommend installing Cygwin just to use this script, as that's not required and may potentially result in unforeseen problems.

I have been using Termux for a while, and it has Python packages available. I thought this might be a way to use your utility on Android.
So long as the Android device has a fairly standard version of Python2 (or Python3) available then it should be possible to run the script on the device. If not, then running the script from another device (Linux/Windows PC, Raspberry Pi etc.) and specifying the IP address of the Android client is probably your only option.
