Currently, there isn't any major push to get Android running well on the PinePhone. The developer Icenowy did get a Android image to run and partly work, it was however slow and buggy, with major functions not working. A solution for running some of your android apps may be found in Anbox as of now. Anbox currently not included in Ubuntu Touch.

Android has multiple techniques in place to speed up launching applications after the first launch, such as the "Dalvik cache".
While you should never expect the current Pinephone to ever be as fast as a new android device, over time the software on the Pinephone should get faster, including launch times.
