I believe that Crystal Reports requires .Net now.  But since I do not develop reports by code.  I am not sure.

I don't know about the mobile part. It might be possible to use Crystal. I have a feeling it is not going to work to well, as the phones OS is not Windows based. Could be wrong, not my expertise.

I would use SQL, that will translate for all platforms. How you display it, that will require more research. SQL will drive Crystal, as well as any tool that you find for the mobile app.

It seems to me that I have seen Crystal Reports displayed on mobile devices.  Not sure how it works.
