### 1/5 — Worthless, ad laden junk

*2026-07-18, version 1.1.7*

Displays an uninterruptible ad after every file operation. That might be tolerable if there was any way to create a new file, or copy a file from one folder to another, but there isn’t. In addition to which, if you close the sidebar which has the file operations, it can never be reopened. You have to force quit the app and then reopen. Obviously the authour has never used this piece of trash.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-06-29, version 1.1.7*

Cannot save

### 5/5 — This is actually real!

*2026-06-06, version 1.1.7*

I am pranked my friend with fake viruses and a code actually works!! just what I was looking for!

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-05-21, version 1.1.7*

This app worked great until lately. There is no option to open a file, only playground. Even settings doesn’t open when clicked. I can read user manual. I can view how to info, but no longer is open a file or a (+) button an option

### 4/5 — Open with…

*2026-04-27*

Great app. But it‘s not possible to use it as target for „open with…“ from the files app

### 4/5 — Cannot input

*2026-04-21*

The app generally works overall but they should add a way to let the app take input from the user and now just put "null" as input.

### 4/5 — Settings screen does not open - known bug, no fix yet

*2026-04-19*

The Settings screen does not respond when tapped, making it impossible to change any configuration or purchase the “Remove Ads” option. This issue has already been reported by another user in April 2025, but there has been no response or fix from the developer since then. The core functionality works, but this bug makes the app very difficult to use long-term. Please fix this as soon as possible.

### 1/5 — full-screen unskippable slop ads

*2026-04-16*

Immediate uninstall.

### 4/5 — Good app, minor functionalities missing/ bugs

*2026-04-09, version 1.1.7*

I like the app. Simple, effective for on the go code editing and compiling. I paid to remove the ads. 
The issue i have with it tho, is that it does not appear in the “share to” list of text (or other filetypes e.g. html) and so you have to open them from inside the app and not directly from Apple’s files app. 
Additionally i noticed there’s a bug that sometimes the file that you’ve had open is shown as empty, which you need to close it and reopen the same file. 
Another minor issue, when selecting text, you don’t get the magnifying preview of where your finger is selecting.

### 5/5 — Requires

*2026-04-01, version 1.1.7*

Can you add feature connect
SFTP protocol to edit files?
Thank you.
