Your best option is to learn Java instead. If you're familiar with c++ you'll pick up Java right away. There are a lot of pre built objects for Android in Java that you can use and they're all documented on the Android developer site. You're best option for an IDE is Android studio. Free to download from the Android developer site. It will auto import any package you need and provide great hints and tips on best practices. It also has a built in emulator and GUI design interface and much more all in one program. It'll make it much easier to develop Android apps.

While posibile, developing Android applications using C++ is not really straightforward and having the same codebase for Windows is even harder. If you want more details you could look into Android NDK over here: https://developer.android.com/ndk/index.html However, developing Android apps using C# is much easier, and I heavily recommend Xamarin. It has a lot of documentation and support. And it also has it's own IDE, Xamarin Studio, which lets you build the GUI using simple drag-and-drop actions. It is also available as an add-on for Visual Studio. You can find more details about Xamarin over here: https://www.xamarin.com
