User reviews

Too many items broken.

There are too many items in this app that are broken or not properly working. The parts that are working are very slow and have a very long run time. The support link for this app takes you to a Russian scam website that is advertising hardware for sale all in the Russian language. This app needs to be removed from the apple App Store.

Needs work

10 print “What is your name?”
run
Whatisyourname?

...and similar nonsense. I am new to Apple. I only bought this because I didn’t see the other review. Was it visible before I purchased it?

A few bugs

Could be great but the app has a few bugs.
The INPUT command doesn’t display a text prompt:
e.g. INPUT “Enter your name”,a$
This just displays the question mark “?” With no text.
When you do enter something it then asks a second time.

The app could also use some commands to access screen taps and other gestures.

Does not Work on iPad 2 with iOS 9

App loaded okay, but unable to enter a BASIC program. As soon as I typed in a line number with the first command, the app bounced back with the OK prompt and cleared the screen.

MCXi basic

Bought this app 5 hours ago. Having done lots of programming in Basic years ago, thought it would be a good idea to get down to it again. BUT - I can't get this app to work. How does one get a program to RUN? Swipe right it says - I do, and immediately get returned to the Home page. Get the app back, and everything I've typed has gone. Type the program again, only this time type "run" and press return. Hey presto - back to the Home page. Return to the app - all disappeared again. Anyone out there got any advice? The app's a complete zilch, and waste of money at the moment .
