### 4/5 — Perfect for testing quick snippets

*2025-04-25, version 3.6.2*

Spartan but this is a compliment. No fuss between you and your code, just an extended keyboard with quick access to Swift punctuation, parentheses, brackets, etc. A run button. Fast and efficient. 

Feature request: auto-completion would be a boon on a iPhone! But already very useful as is. I am using it to play with snippets from books or docs I read on the go.

### 4/5 — Suggestion

*2024-02-09, version 3.5.1*

Bonjour 

Je suis nouvel utilisateur de votre application 
J ai écrit un programme pour afficher 
une notification sur iOS 

Mais à chaque fois j obtiens un message du type

compiler.swift:2:8: error: no such module 'UserNotifications'
import UserNotifications
Ou

compiler.swift:1:8: error: no such module 'UIKit'
import UIKit

Est il possible d importer UIKIT dans votre application ? 

Merci

### 3/5 — apple storeに書いてない課金

*2021-09-26, version 3.0.3*

### 3/5 — Not bad, but!

*2020-02-10*

let date = Date ()

//use of unresolved identifier 'Date'
Are you seriously?!

*2020-02-02*

### 3/5 — Import still needs fixing

*2019-11-12*

I’m enjoying this app but seems I am stuck only writing new code on this app and would greatly like to import playgrounds from my Mac. There seems to be no way to find them.  A better system could be employed.

### 4/5 — Inbox needs fixing

*2019-11-09*

I have used your app and it is great.... except when I try to open an imported project it says to move it out of inbox. However, there seems to be no way to do this. Please fix this.

### 1/5 — Memory error

*2021-06-30, version 3.0.3*

I just wrote a few, only 19 rows, code and it went error. This was not my fault, cause I shown it to a professional programmer, and he told me that the code written was completely flawless, it got nothing to do with the error. Please fix this, thanks

### 1/5 — Bad upgrade

*2020-04-21*

I bought this application. Upgrade button doesn’t work in it. Restore button also doesn’t work.

I already bought the application.  when I press upgrade on the phone.  In-app purchase on iPhone does not work.

spinning wheel, but nothing happens

### 1/5 — aufdringliche Werbung

aufdringliche und nervige Werbung ☹️

The text editor is buggy and unresponsive.

Too much ads appearing, annoying.

### 1/5 — Not editable

*2016-10-27, version 1.1.3*

The app works, but you can not edit properly. Handling needs improvement

### 2/5 — Sh*d Compiler

*2020-07-13, version 2.8.1*

The App should be called "Sh*d compiler".
It makes heavy use of advertising and you can use it only with an stable internet connection.
Or name it "trashcan" that people know what they get if they download this trash App ;-)

### 2/5 — Crashes when using tabs

*2017-07-30*

Crashes when using tabs! Just lost a piece of code forever...

### 5/5 — Worked for me

*2024-03-08, version 3.5.1*

Compiling code on mobile is generally not recommended but this app still makes it well possible. Some function might not works as good as on a mac. But it's better than nothing.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2023-12-25, version 3.5.1*

Je suis passé à la version premium c’est bien un seul prélèvement de 2,99€? Pas chaque mois? Et en plus de ne plus avoir de pubs y’a t il autre chose dans la version premium?

### 5/5 — Excellent !

*2023-12-10, version 3.5.1*

Bravo au développeur.

### 5/5 — Works

*2023-09-04*

Works on my iPad and includes a manual!!!

### 5/5 — Versatile

*2022-12-27, version 3.3.1*

Really good to try out pure Swift code for learning purposes when there’s nothing else available.
I collected many files now. It would be cool to allow dragging files to folders.

### 5/5 — Very good app.

*2021-08-24, version 3.0.3*

Even for a complete novice, this app works like it should.
Without prior experience I was able to write Swift programs
almost immediately. Also fast and friendly customer support.
Highly recommended for anyone wanting to have an affordable and easy to operate Swift compiler on their phone or tablet.

### 5/5 — COOL!

*2020-06-07, version 2.8*

I have been learning Swift using Knowin and i want to try to code but im not using a computer to code. I tried this app and coded, and it works! Thanks so much!

### 5/5 — Current updates to the app 👍

*2020-03-16, version 2.7*

Latest update to iOS 13 which is great. Mobile playground to practise on when you don’t have your Mac with you. As long as it keeps getting updated my 5 star review will stay.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-12-05, version 2.6.1*

Best app for Swift learning !!!

### 5/5 — Parfait
