Install termux on your phone and run pkg install x11-repo followed by pkg install putty-tools which should put a copy of puttygen on your phone. Open your file manager and “Termux” should appear like a USB drive (in Google files it’s under “other storage” at the bottom of the home screen), copy your key file there and Termux will be able to access it. puttygen keyfile.ppk -O private-opensshShould let you convert to OpenSSH format and connect to trusted computers. You can also install OpenSSH in Termux to use it as an ssh client

You are amazing, thank you so much! It all worked apart from the last one, which said it needs an output file specified so added -o after a quick search. I really appreciate the quick response to, I got in very quickly but only just managed to respond here.

Glad to hear it worked! I edited the comment in case anybody stumbles across it with the same issue
