I support the feature request of getting sync - since I also tinker a lot with views. And I believe all ambitious MLO users do for many months when they start using it.
But what I do to alleviate it is to export the views to a subfolder to my MLO folder on Windows. (The entire MLO folder is on Gdrive). I also make a specific folder for views on my Android. (In my case I chose a subfolder to the download folder). Then I use a sync app to create a sync connection between the two folders. (In my case Autosync Google Drive which has served me well for years for many purposes. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ttxapps.drivesync&hl=en ). This way, as soon as I change on Windows I can at least quickly get it to my Android as well. This of course does not help me in the cases where I tinker with views on my Android first. But still better than manual transfer / e-mailing to my phone.
