## What is Python IDE?

A quick, open source Python interpreter for the iOS platform.

Create and test Python on the go. Whether you're just learning, practicing or creating a tiny snippet for your new project, the Python IDE can help you with all of that.

Debug
Quickly test and run your code in the synthetic Python console. It covers the most basic functions of both Python 2 and 3.

Export
The Python IDE has a built-in export function that allows you to export your file to the most popular 3rd party services (including iCloud Drive, Google Drive, Dropbox and iTunes File Sharing).

Save & Close
Exit without worry. The Python IDE will automatically save the latest edit of your code. Whether you are leaving the app, quitting it or, in the worst case scenario, experience a minor crash – your code will be backed up without hassle.

### 1/5 — Well…

*2021-11-14, version 1.0*

Pros:
-Free
Cons:
-Not really python

### 1/5 — Not even for light scripples

*2021-06-06, version 1.0*

That indentation must be 4 spaces, not, say, 2, and output on the “console” is arbitrarily prepended “>>>” is plain odd, but you can work with it.  But then you can’t even use the range() generator?!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-09-30, version 1.0*

when I tried the app it didn’t work, and the starting code was the only one that worked.

### 5/5 — Not correct

*2020-04-16, version 1.0*

Name is supposed to be idle

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2019-09-07, version 1.0*

Theres a default code (print hello world) when you install this app. But it seems its the only one working. I created my code and run it but its empty

### 1/5 — Not with the dollar.

*2018-12-26, version 1.0*

As a test, I used a program at the basic level. Upon compile and running of the program the it remained blank.

### 2/5 — OMG how could you?

*2018-08-07, version 1.0*

I had started a mini program in the mobile ID. Everything seemed fine until testing phase. Testing phase failed. Application assume to save to cloud, cloud file was saved as default hello world.

No major loss, but I seriously lost testing a program I was 100% sure who’s going to complete. Less than 120 lines.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work whatsoever

*2018-01-02, version 1.0*

```
v = “test”
print(v)
```
Does nothing at all.

### 4/5 — Works fine for early stage

*2017-11-06, version 1.0*

To my knowledge, the issues expressed in older reviews have been fixed. I’m pleased to find a way to run python, though I wouldn’t call this an “IDE” (integrated development environment). It’s barely even a text editor. Regardless, it’s good and free I would pay up to a dollar for this.

### 3/5 — Works well enough

*2017-10-13, version 1.0*

I was able to resolve the issues people were running into with deleting code and not running code by using the correct characters, the app doesn’t handle iOS “” quotes very well, it will resolve "" as you would expect. Good work. Will keep playing with it to see what I can find. Thanks for the cool tool!
