General
Public accounts in ArcGIS Online that are not part of an organization cannot author or edit dashboards. ArcGIS Dashboards does, however, support viewing a dashboard that allows anonymous access after signing in with an ArcGIS Online public account. The app also supports anonymous access of dashboards that are shared with everyone.
ArcGIS Dashboards is available to members of ArcGIS Online organizations. For more information, see Licensing Terms of Use.

Yes, you can view dashboards on a mobile device. When you open a dashboard on a mobile device, if the dashboard author has created a mobile view, that view loads. Dashboards that do not have a mobile view configured load the desktop view on mobile devices. Dashboard authors should take the time to create a mobile view for their dashboard so it loads optimally on mobile devices.
Dashboards cannot be authored or edited on a mobile device.
