  • Shame!

    And this is how good apps end. You never introduce a feature just to remove it later and ask for money to get it back! The graphic mode is now gone. I don't mind paying for it as the app is very good and the author deserves good money for it. Instead I'm removing it as I don't know what next feature will be gone and my written programs will stop working.

    I won't underrate it only because I'm disappointed. The app is good but as with every software you pay for the whole package. I didn't pay for this one but still, even free apps don't get downgrades instead of upgrades.

  • Fun

    Lots of fun. Brings back memories. Good help reference.
  • Just fantastic!

    Does exactly what it say it can do! Even the hidden WAIT 6502,1 Easter Egg is in there!
  • great

    Add web service support and this would be the best
  • Great BASIC emulator

    Nicely done! Its as though I'm sitting in front of my old Commodore PET. This is great if I need to do some formula-based math my HP calc won't do or takes too much work to set up.
  • Retroissimo!

    Ah, this brings back memories. Useful, too — for simple programming on these Apple devices that are generally so unfit for anything of that sort. Type "help" for help, if you forget the details of the syntax. I needed that. It's been a couple of decades, after all. Many thanks to the developers. Brilliant!

  • HELP!

    I absolutely LOVE this application, but your recent Version 1.3 update broke support for older Ipad OS'es. My ipad is OS 3.2.1. The previous version worked fine, but the new 1.3 version won't even open. PLEASE fix... I already feel like I've lost an old friend!:(
  • Absolutely amazing!!!!

    I would have paid any amount for this app! I don't know why it is free but thank you so very much!

    Please consider writing some form of compiler that would allow for the creation of stand alone iPhone Apps written within Hand Basic!
    (name your price, I'll buy it!)

    My hats off to you.. :-))
  • Excellent!

    I just spent a whole Saturday afternoon writing a text adventure game with this app! I love it. It reminds me of being 12, staying behind after school to write poor little text games on the school computers.

    This app has made me hugely nostalgic. I just wish there was a way to import and export .BAS files, or if there is a way, that it was clearer how to do so.

  • If You Programmed on the C-64 get this

    Blast from the past- thank you dev. Really needed help feature can't remember the syntax anymore!
