Hi, there is a great tool for android mockups here: https://www.lucidchart.com/pages/examples/android_mockup_tool It is not only for android, you can create various charts in there. Unfortunately, the android one is not free.

I dont know I way how you can import them and use them as "mockups". However, you can just use them as reference when you are constructing your UI in android studio. At least I do that :)
