library stack to work on mobile. I am testing on Android but will also be

start using this stack

This makes it only available if you open LC first THEN open your app stack.
If LC is closed and you click on a app stack the library is not available.
This was easily fixed by putting 'start using stack "EIS_Library"' in the
preOpenStack in the app stack.
Instead, go the Plugins Settings in the Development->Plugins menu.
Select your library stack from the popdown. Set it to open when
"Revolution starts up". In the list at the right, select the line
"revPreOpenStack".
Then in your library stack, change your preOpenStack handler to a
"revPreOpenstack" handler.
LiveCode will now automatically open your stack at every launch, and
send a "revPreOpenstack" message to it. The library will load whenever
the IDE opens.
I can't get the 'start using stack "EIS_Library"' to work on Android. I
included the library stack in the standalone application setting in the
stacks tab. This also makes it appear in the property inspector "stack
files" when inspecting the main app stack.

I'd think that should work, but mobile may not be interpreting the file
locations the same way as the desktop apps do. On mobile, many of the
file folders are virtual.
Instead of including it in the stacks pane, try including it in the Copy
Files pane. The stack will be copied to the same folder as the engine in
your mobile standalone. You can refer to it in your scripts with an
engine-relative file path, and start using that:
put specialFolderPath("engine") & "/EIS_Library.livecode" into tPath
start using stack tPath
Untested, but should work.
