I type on Colemak on my PC and Qwerty on mobile

Same, it's really easy to keep them separate mentally.

I think QWERTY may even be better for typing on a phone, because common letters are more spread out, leading to fewer errors.

Switching from QWERTY to Colemak on my phone was effortless, just installed it and started using it easily. Using QWERTY on my bf's phone feels awkward now, even though I use it every day with my computer keyboard. They definitely seem to occupy different mental spaces.
