Too few free compilation to evaluate

Sadly, I would appreciate more free compilations to try the app. 1-2 is cheap
Sorry

Good App Support

I finally decided to pay and now keep on getting a weird files open error(Fatal error the limit on the number of open files is too low) ... Good thing is the App support is good and got a response in under 10 minutes

Not free

You have to buy “compilations”.

No graphics

R programmers expect the plot() function to plot graphics. If nothing else in R works, this ought to. But it doesn’t. To be fair, the App Store description says so, but I didn’t read that till afterwards, and never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that graphics would not be supported. I even spent a few bucks on unlimited compilations before discovering this to be the case.

$3 !! It's not free

The app is misleading, as it is not free.

Can't work

Insufficient compilations. Please get more on Settings tab.

Response from developer

Unfortunately, we can't offer free compilations with the application.

Horrible

Should have read reviews before trying. Do not get. This is a waste of time and not free.

Response from developer

Please explain your opinion in details, so we could make our application even better!

Worst of the worst

A piece of junk. No packages after you pay three bucks.

Don't bother

Dont bother with downloading this misleading app. Free to download Asks for money when you actually want to use it. No Package installation support. This is very opposite to what R community stands for.

Response from developer

Just pay for it and use the application as much as you want!

Terrible

Nothing like R on windows or mac. Can only run one command at a time (you actually have to delete the old one to run another one) and needs an internet connection. Slow after you download unlimited. This is the first app I've ever rated, but it was so bad that I needed to tell people.

Response from developer

Information in the review is false. The application doesn't allow user to execute command one by one. You can only compile and run the whole program. So, there is no issue with it.

Not really free.

You can download for free but need to pay to actually use it. It's only $3, but still misleading. Charge the money and stop being dishonest.

Refund

Hi

I needed a console based app. I purchased the unlimited one and now it is awfully slow and hard to work with. Please refund me.
Thanks

Response from developer

You can use text input/output in your programs. Please check your Internet connection if it works too slow. You have to request a refund to properly handle it.

Very minimal

Allows you to run r script 3 times, and then asks you to pay to continue.

Was not able to see if it even had any packages built in, and the app is not like the command line type of R, it sends the command over the Internet and returns the result. It is not worth the time to install at this point.

Response from developer

Features of the application are limited. But it's much better than nothing!

Too simple

A simple online version. Can not generate plots and can not install packages either.

Response from developer

Unfortunately, graphics, network and file system are not supported.

refund

Hi i accidentally purchased the both 100 and unlimited. i only need 100 so can i get a refund on the unlimited one?
also i bought a new phone(samsung) so i wanna use this app on my ipad. Can you move the 100compilations that i bought to ipad? i dont have an iphone anymore
thx

Response from developer

You can restore unlimited compilations on any Apple mobile device for free. But you can't restore or transfer 100 compilations.

Not for learning

Basically a book and then tries to charge you to try it on your own

Response from developer

It's perfect tool for practice and learning R if you buy it!

Unreliable

"The program executed perfectly"....yet I don't see anything. Why create an app and make people pay for compilations like I did, just so it it can frustrate users with its unreliability. Thanks for taking the time to develop this neat looking app, but it's simply garbage if it doesn't function as it should.

Response from developer

Please just use text output to print any data by your program.

Awful documentation

Awful documentation on what R functionality is / is not available in app.

Why bother?

You may get some reference value for basic R, but they want you to pay per compile/run. I can do that for free with less hassle most any other time: in fact an iPhone is a grossly inconvenient way to do/learn R. Why add to this cost. Try a minimal ad-paid model instead.

Response from developer

Most of users prefer to pay small amount of money and don't see any ads.

As stated it doesn't support plot

This is an important omission
