Porting VSTO Outlook Add-In to Mobile Device

We recently created a VSTO Add-In for Outlook 2016 using the Outlook 2016 Office Project Type in Visual Studio 2017 and was recently asked if it's possible to port our Outlook Add-In to mobile devices (IOS/Android).

We've done some research on whether this is possible, however not sure if this can be done, at least easily from reading this article.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Microsoft Outlook app on mobile platforms is doesn't support VSTO add-ins. If you would like to bring some functionality into mobile apps you may consider to look at Office.js Add-ins. The resource you have provided talks exactly about this type of add-ins. You may get an idea if you want to invest into development of Office.js add-in by reading ... How are Office Add-ins different from COM and VSTO add-ins?
