### 2/5 — Runtime error

*2015-05-06, version 7.0*

Can't run my program.

**Developer response:** Please fix errors in your program and try again.

### 1/5 — Junk. Phony

*2012-12-19, version 3.0*

Doesn't allow inputs or data entries. Doesn't remember variables. Totally useless for anyone interested in writing a quick pascal program. A fraud. I feel cheated. And I'm disappointed.

**Developer response:** You have to enter all input data on the Input screen before program running.

### 1/5 — I didn't like!

*2012-12-11, version 3.0*

We can complete just 2 times and need pay for more.

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 1/5 — Baaad

*2012-12-07, version 3.0*

It doesn't work

**Developer response:** Please describe your problem more detailed so we could assist you.

### 1/5 — No input facility

*2012-11-25*

I entered the following simple program:

Program Lesson2_Program1;
Var name, surname: String;
                     
Begin
 Write('Enter your name:');
 readln(name);
 Write('Enter your surname:');
 readln(surname);
 writeln;{new line}
 writeln;{new line}
 Writeln('Your full name is: ',name,' ',surname);
 Readln;
End.

When run it wrote the three strings on the screen but ignored the read commands.

Am I doing something wrong or is the app useless?! 

There is no way to contact the developer direct. Hence this review.

**Developer response:** You have to enter all text input on the Input screen before program running.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2012-11-24, version 3.0*

It can't work offline and need 3 more dollars. So, if you want to work on this or other programs by this author, you must be ready to pay more

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 1/5 — This is not free

*2012-11-22, version 3.0*

It's necessary to buy compilations!
It's not possible to input data in runtime! You need to type your data before the compilation! LoL
In my opinion, this is waste of time!

**Developer response:** You have to enter all input data on the Input screen before program running.

### 1/5 — It asks u to pay for compilation

*2012-11-21, version 3.0*

It's very limited-does not supply interactive data inout and it asks for money after first, trial compliation.

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 1/5 — 💢💢💩💩💩💩💩💩💢💢💢

*2012-10-15*

THOUGHT IT WOULD BE GOOD! SO RUBBISH! CAN'T EVEN INPUT ANYTHING, SO THE BEST YOU CAN DO IS SHOW TEXT OR NUMBERS, WOULD HAVE AT LEAST EXPECTED THE PROGRAM TO BE INTERACTIVE WHEN RAN!! 

WASTE OF MONEY!!! WANT MY MONEY BACK!! 😡😡😡😡

**Developer response:** Just input all data on the Input screen before running a program.

### 2/5 — Not Bad for New Starters

*2012-07-15*

A reasonable adaptation, and a good starting place for beginners, within the limitation of what you can do on the IPad. You can write simple code, but you are very much limited in the input/output interface for interacting with your programs. Good for working as a "scratch pad" for ideas, but limited beyond that.

### 1/5 — not interactive

*2024-08-14*

program is run on a remote server. not interactive which is kind of boring.

### 1/5 — Программа отстой понейший

*2022-02-03, version 13.0*

Нахрен нужна бесплатная версия когда даже один раз скомпелировать нельзя? Разработчик дебил.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2017-12-28*

This is not a free app. You have to pay to compile any programs you write. A bit misleading!

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2015-06-03, version 7.5*

Worst app ever...downloaded it a realized you had to pay to actually make it work....hate apps like this....😪

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 1/5 — Stupid

*2014-09-25, version 6.2*

It's stupid that you have to pay to compile a project. Joke of an app

**Developer response:** You can buy unlimited compilations and you won't ever pay for it!

### 1/5 — rubish

*2013-10-26, version 4.2*

you have to buy compilations to run your program and onese you buy them it run all the program whithout let you to use it.

**Developer response:** What exactly do you mean?

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2013-09-16, version 3.8.2*

Seems to support FPC, but I'll never know quite how much. After a few compilations, you need to buy more compilations. So, on that alone I would remove this app. I thought I might hang on to it simply for the reference material. It's really no better than what's available online--since that's all it's really doing anyway--browsing the online documentation. Promising, but mostly as a novelty item. Certainly not very useful unless you want to buy more compilations. How odd is that?

**Developer response:** Just buy it and use it as much as you want!

### 1/5 — It's a wrong program

*2013-02-28, version 3.0*

It is the FREE PASCAL, but they make it to a pay program, and it doesn't work just a time, but only with original program was compiled, if I delete the "write: ..." sc. it doesn't COMPILING PEOPLE!!!

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2013-02-19*

Warning, this app is not free. You must pay $0.01 per compilation.

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 1/5 — Why do I need to pay?????!!!

*2013-01-30, version 3.0*

Pascal - is a free program for computer. It doesn't make any sense for paying for it.

**Developer response:** Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

### 5/5 — Great.  Definitely worth the purchase

*2018-05-06, version 11.1*

It is really good for writing quick Pascal programs & testing out snippets of code when using my computer would be overkill. It also seems to adhere pretty well to FreePascal.  

I bought the app so I don’t have to worry about running out of compiles it’s definitely worth the purchase price of $2.99.

### 5/5 — Help

*2017-11-20, version 9.0*

It said: The program raises a runtime error. 

What can I do?

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2014-05-03, version 4.5*

I am writing a compiler that targets many languages and this app is ideal for my purposes. Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2013-05-24, version 3.3*

I love this app!  I  have quite a bit of Turbo Pascal code I might be able to revive with this app.  Would love to see if this app can be embedded into an application to run my Pascal applications on iOS devices.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2012-07-27, version 2.1*

It's as if I have been transported back in time 35 years and find myself writing code on a terminal at the University of Illinois!  Thanks so much to the developer.

### 4/5 — Works - Reasonable at $3 for unlimited compilations

*2019-02-10, version 11.1*

The only downsides (which are dictated by the iOS platform) are the need to recompile the program each time and the fact that data input cannot occur when the program is running. The program has to be compiled (and presumably run) remotely and the console output is shown locally. This is the only way to run simple Object pascal programs on iOS limited to a single source file. Have not tried anything more complex but easy enough to write on a computer (macOS/Windows/Linux) using Lazarus and send to your iPhone/iPad to run.

Major gripe: still runs FPC 3.0 rather than the latest version.

**Developer response:** You can buy unlimited compilations and use the application as much as you want!

### 4/5 — It's nice

*2014-02-08, version 4.3*

This app is well developed and I love the layout. The only thing I want the developer to add is a description of the app itself in its reference section. This part is where you do this. This section is for this. For beginners like me, it would help clarify what section you write a code in, where you can read the output, etc.

### 4/5 — Good function

*2014-01-31, version 4.3*

I love this app and use it all the time to run my own code. The only thing I would like to see changed is to have the code compiled and run locally so that I can run code when the net isn't available.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2013-11-11*

This is a good app and it does what it says on the tin but it desparately needs the feature to be able to type when you put a readln with a variable. This app would be absolutely fantastic if it had this feature it would make it a lot more useful and worth using. I feel like I've wasted the £1.99 buying unlimited compilations because the program is almost useless without this feature. Please sort this out. Thank you very much

### 4/5 — Great App !!!

*2012-12-19, version 3.0*

It is a good app that you can write a pascal program in and run from the editor. Has links to other resources such as "Free Pascal".
