Worthless

Useless on the iPad, both due to iOS security restrictions and do to incredibly poor, missing, or non-existent Pythonista documentation on how to actually develop anything on the iPad. Do not purchase if you want to do any real development work on the iPad (beyond 10-line programs).

Great app

I am loving using this app.

Add AI integration

This tool could greatly benefit if it had a built-in coding agent.

Excellent!

An incredibly helpful tool. I use it to practice small snippets of code when I’m laying on the couch or out somewhere. It’s great for reinforcing your learning when you’re away from the computer.

Also, the little snake in the app screenshots makes me happy.

Exactly what I needed

I can’t get shortcuts or widgets to show up at all, but besides that the IDE is everything you could ask for and more. Best money I’ve spent on here yet.
