Python Editor App App Reviews

Disappointing. I started using this a little bit about a month ago. I had an idea for something I wanted to try later, and I needed something, so I scrolled down to the learn button, to see if there was any documentation on the particular thing. Turns out, you need a subscription to access it. Im annoyed by that, but understand. The app has to make money some how.

Mid Ish. I hate that it makes a pop up of python pro but you can indeed exit out of it it’s just a light small blue at the top left

Bait and Switch?. I’ve been using this app for a while and I was never forced to sign up for premium subscription to use it. The most recent update now prompts for premium WITHOUT a way to close the ad out WITHOUT subscribing for premium. Seems like the dev needs to either make this a paid app or give users the ability to choose if they subscribe.

About file format. This is a very thoughtful app. I am curious to know if it will support the ipynb format in the near future.

App immediately prompts me to purchase the premium version. Window can’t be closed. As said in the title, the moment I open the app, a pop up window prompts me to purchase “Python Editor Pro.” The pop up does not have any “close” button. And trying to dismiss it by swiping has no effect. I have closed the app multiple times, and each time I am greeted by the same sight.

Bait and Switch. If you’re going to charge then just charge from the jump. Don’t bait and switch. You literally can’t do anything until paying them, no free tier.

Completely Ruined. This app used to be my go-to for working on Python Scripts portably on my iPhone. It worked quite well and was better then Pyto. Then, an update just labeled ‘bugfix’ appeared and after updating, the app required me to PAY for pro just to use it! Why‽ There is absolutely no reason just to ruin an app like that, and not tell anyone about it. For now, I’m uninstalling this app, and I would have stayed on an older version if I knew.

Not usable. Completely broken on my iphone 12 pro. Cannot type anything in file view/edit mode and also I can't run the script

Typing. I don’t like how you have to type and switch between keyboards. I wish you could just turn your phone sideways and it would be like a normal keyboard with arithmetic signs and symbols

Not Free. They are marketing the app as a free app with a Pro subscription that unlocks additional features. In reality they block you from using the app entirely after a couple of days of use unless you purchase Pro for $16/month. This also locks you out of the files you created so far. That’s a case of misleading marketing and a scam.

Forced to pay or constantly reopen app. It looks free, then after you download it forces a their “pro” version of the app on you for 3.99 a week. No option to disable or remove the obvious money grab without paying or closing the app. Even if you close it, it’ll still find its way to pop back up and remove all functionality to the app until you pay. Trash. 0 stars

Unusable. The app pops up an ad for their premium version, which I cannot close, and covers my entire screen. The app would not be usable at all if the app were able to put this ad up while I am creating a file.

NOT FREE. Why would you list this as free if you cannot even touch a button without adding your credit card info? Frustrating

Zero functionality without paying. Doesn’t let you access the supposedly “free” functionality because it locks you to a pay screen.

Works after bypassing paywall. After ignoring the popup asking for 3.99 I was able to create and run a python script.

Fix your membership screen. Impossible to close membership screen makes doing anything impossible

Not as good as Pycharm. This implementation does not support GUI creation with the standard inter module. It is also buggy when using the copy/paste functionality. On top of all that, there is no interactive debugging available. Now they want you to pay $3.99/week to use their app that isn’t nearly as good as the gold standard, Pycharm!

Great but missing something. Id rate rate the 5 stars because its great for phones but when I tried to use turtle I could tell if it didn’t work (incomplete) of if it didn't exist pls fix

Terminal Usage. So, I am making a discord bot and there is no terminal for me to install a python package. Please make it so there is a terminal and you can install the python package for discord bot making.

Latest update intentionally broke the app. This app was simple, well-designed, and working well for me, but the latest update paywalls every feature behind an unskippable popup unless you pay $4/week (over $200/yr for a barebones Python IDE!). Do not download until this is fixed.

NOT FREE AT ALL.. I downloaded this app because I was looking for a python coding app and I read a review that said it forces you to buy it and doesn’t let you go out of the window but I thought this was just a membership and the problem was solved so I downloaded it anyway. Turns out either. The problem was not solved or it’s not a problem at all and the free download on the App Store was just a ruse. It doesn’t let you go out of the purchase screen no matter how many times you close the app. Either you buy the membership or you don’t use it at all. I’m going to try finding one that’s actually free or gives you the OPTION to spend money or not.

NOT FREE trial is only 3 days wack. I just wanted to do some coding here and there since I’m not always with my laptop. The moment the app boots up it immediately wants you try for only 3 days and then begin paying for it. You’re better off just coding on a computer where it’s free and is overall the better option.

Very nice, but quickly limited. Very cool and impressive app for making simple command and scripts. I wasn’t able to utilize “input()” as it always returned errors without much description. Modules like OS and Time don’t throw errors but didn’t offer the functionality they do on computer unfortunately. Still very cool for simple practice

Great free app. This is my first python app I’ve downloaded, but it works well! The fact that it is entirely free is epic and the app does everything I need it to.

Best python editor. Perfect app would use daily as a way to calm down, relax, problem solve and many more.

Cant go off the Puthon Editor Pro screen. Keeps telling me to buy python editor pro but there is no x button

Great but Severely Limited. The app was working well for me as I was just learning python and the app was an effective way to practice on the go. Unfortunately it seems to lack the ability to pip install, which effectively prevents any well refined program due to mathematical and UI limitations.

Can’t edit at all (update: RESOLVED). I was able to create a new file and open it, and open a sample file as well. However there was no way to edit them at all, no matter where I clicked, there was no keyboard showing up, and it wouldn’t allow pasting either Update: deleting and reinstalling the app fixed the problem. Thanks to a very useful previous comment. I am updating my review from 1 star to 4 star.

.. Was using the program and was liking it. The a screen pops up for the pro version which I don't need. It would not let me get past it without paying.

Please fix it.. It has an error of input() function, please fix it.

It works. The app literally works and opens

Very good.. This is free. FREE. And it has everything you need I mean c'mon. Respect this app for having those two things.

Didn’t even try it. Downloaded. Opened. Immediately hit with three day free trial and then 3.99 a week after. You can’t skip and try a basic version on the phone and I’m not going to remember to cancel in three days. So I just uninstalled. Running a free scripting language on my phone for 12 bucks a month ain’t worth it especially when my phone isn’t going to perform the way a laptop or desktop would. Pass.

Annoying splash screen. A few times the “buy this” splash screen was closable but recently I’ve been unable to close it. Disappointing.

Update for non premium users broke the app. I don’t know if this is just me but I would normally rate the app 5 stars but the new update made it to where when I open the app, the pop up that asks if you want to go premium does not have a “X” or a way to exit and use the app. I understand trying to push premium but the pop up before was a bit intrusive, now it’s just ridiculous.

Pay to use. This app is now a pay to use. I can’t access my work bc it wants me to pay their overpriced subscription every time when I open the app. Don’t use this

👎🏽. The ad to pay for using the application is very annoying once it comes out you can no longer remove it you have to pay obligatory and if you make a free plan however you want they charge you scammers

Way Too Over-Priced. I understand that developers should be paid for their work but weekly membership fees? You have to sign up to get a three day trial? Many better options out there. This is a terrible business model for gaining customers. How about build great apps, let people try them for free and then offer a one time price to purchase? There is no way this would ever be worth the price they are asking.

Python editor pro ads problem. This ads keep always show up on my screen ,every time i start this application and click in to certain file ,the premium ads show up,but the new ios 18 update zoom in the screen so i can't see the 'skip' button on the edge of the coner of screen.

Sales Funnel. I had downloaded the app wanting to try it out, but you’re only given one session before it locks you out and forces you to upgrade to pro. It was less than 15 minutes of time in app. Seems it’s just a sales funnel to force you to upgrade, but it doesn’t seem like upgrading gets you anything more than just access to a very basic UI.

You have to buy the pro to use. Just like I said in the title, this is not a free app. It makes you buy the pro in order to utilize it. Not something that I would purchase when there are tons of free ones online.

Won’t let me use it without subscription. Upon first use, this app asks for a review. Since I haven’t used it, I choose Not Now, and then it immediately opens a subscription prompt, asking me to subscribe to their 3 day trial for their Pro subscription that renews at $3.99/week. I haven’t even used the app as is, why would I subscribe?

Modules. My modules aren’t being detected and I cannot retrieve python files from my apple’s desktop because it tells me that I do not own the file.

Fine for simple scripts. It's fine for reviewing simple scripts since it's limited. I wish it was possible to change the output terminal font size, I'm not really sure why it's not. I also don't like that there isn't an option to remove/hide files from the app only— if you hit "Remove" it permanently deletes the file off your phone, so keep backups...

Great app, takes a bit of setup. The first time I opened the app, I wasn’t able to open any of the samples, until I set the theme. It was set to Chrome as the default, so I changed it to GitHub, and then I was able to open the examples and create my own files. Then I changed it back to Chrome, and it worked fine.

You’re trying to force us to buy it. Why I try to force us to buy it when we can use it for free on our phones. He won’t allow us to use it unless we purchase the premium subscription because the window will not go away for us to cancel it to continue using the free service, I don’t understand if this is even actually legitimately by python

Ok, some problems. Apart from files ending in .py, you cannot run your program. I’m a beginner and i wanted to try out some projects from a book but they use .txt, .css, etc. It’s a good app but i wish it would allow you to run if it was not .py .

Can’t Use Without Accepting Free Trial. A huge pop up takes over the whole screen within seconds, forcing you to accept a free trial that signs you up for premium services automatically once the trial ends. You can’t minimize the pop up without accepting the trial. There’s no X button to close it out, and no way to swipe it away either. Deceptive.

No cloud support. The Python folder is stored by default in the Files app. However the location is on the iPad and it can’t be moved to the iCloud folder. That means that the files have to be manually moved from the iPad location to the iCloud location. And when you open the app on the iPhone it won’t have the files. There should be a way for us to specify where to store the python files.

Another subscription. Just another deceptive paid app on the App Store. If this app was $10 or $15, I’d be totally fine paying before I download, but to be greeted with a subscription page the minute I open my phone, unacceptable. I will download one of the free python compilers instead.

Is this a bug. When I run code it’s blocked by a pay wall pls add a x its its called pro at this point make the app 5.99

Very useful. This is great for on the move time. It works, what more can you ask for. Honestly this is the only great free one that is genuinely useful. I’ve paid for others and this one I swear by. The fact this is free makes me use it. The fact that it’s good makes me recommend it. 2 combos not often found. That said there is limitations if your a really advanced programmer. But if your advanced this should compliment not replace your ide.

Agregar librerías gráficas. Por favor agreguen para librerías gráficas como tkinter , kivy pygame

Pay wall bug. Whenever I click a button to do a simple action such as create, open, or run a file I am prompted to purchase premium for $25.00AUD a month and I cant exit the pay wall and need to close the app.

Scam. Listed as free but the premium free trial po stops you from using the app and can’t be dismissed

Upgrade to Pro only scam. Popup insists you upgrade to pro for $300 per year. Cannot do anything until you agree. 3 days free, ha! complete scam. Apple take this down please

The beginning. Gshehe

DONT USE. U CANT GET OUT OF THE BUY PREMIUM POPUP EVEN IF YOU CLOSE IT IT WILL ASK YOU TO BUY PREMIUM AND YOU CANT GET OUT IF YOU CLOSE IT AND REOPEN IT IT WILL IMMEDIATELY POP UP AGAIN

Best beginner app. It’s free, got a great starting book built in. Did I say it was free.

The app advertises pro forcefully and won’t let me use the free option unless I purchase it.. The app advertises pro forcefully and won’t let me use the free option unless I purchase it.

NO OPTION CLOSE PREMIUM POPUP. This didnt always happen until a few months ago now you cannot use app at all without an unclosable popup ever time the app loads.

scam app - AVOID. purports to be a free app, when you try and use it you are faced with an immovable pout demanding $5.99 screen for a pro version you didn’t ask for.

HIGHLY UNRECOMMENDED. Whenever I open the app, this premium subscription thingy always pops up and there isn’t even any button to close it. Man, this app is a huge waste of storage. Highly unrecommended.

Please add this. The app is good, like python. But please add Tkinter, that will be awesome🤩 , the rest of the app is good, and for the subscription pop up there is a x button, I love the app, but please add tkinter!

Not free. Used to be free. Now it’s a subscription. Didn’t even get to open it properly. Just deleted it.

Laggy. I love it, but it takes too long to load.

Very frustrating. Constant pop ups of advertisements that can’t be exited

Quick Question. The app is very good. It does what it’s intended for, a mobile compiler. What I have learned is that the free guide book has been blocked behind a paywall. Is there a reason for this? Just curious, since the free guide book is what stands out from this application from the other mobile compilers. Others also require for you to pay for lessons and such, by making the guide book unavailable for free, it is now similar to other portable programming tools. I would very much appreciate a response from anyone. Thank you.

Scam - unskippable pop up to buy stuff from the get go.. Scam - unskippable pop up to buy stuff from the get go. Should be taken down or mot listed as free

It was great. It was a great free app for a long time until recently the developers added weekly subscription without adding anything new to that subscription.

Recently updated. The recent update brought the ability to run on your device with delays using “sleep(2)” to properly run scripts. 5 stars, thanks for listening to us complain about stuff & actually improving it.

Beginner in Python. Found this app really useful! Thank you for creating this.

Wants money.. It’s asking for money right away before I’ve even had a chance to use the program. No idea if it even works yet! Avoid this one guys

Crashes on launch. :(

Manipulates you to pay them. I’ve gotten fairly frustrated with this app that has been designed by developers who don’t know how to design software that is user friendly. The app allows you to download it for free, however once you have downloaded the app it will not allow you to use it until you purchase the premium version that costs $5 a week. This is not a good design because they should be up front about charging you before you even download the app and waste time trying to figure out how to escape the big bear that pops up on your screen to steal your money.

Bad app. Don’t waist your time it will force you to pay

scam. you can’t access the app without paying

Python Editor pro screen ad. It’s shows me Python Editor pro screen - python learning, support… first time opening the app, doesn’t even ask if my level of proficiency, also I tried to dismiss it, it is not easily dismissed,

Works great and free. Appreciate you teams effort in creating this app. Using it to learn when I’m on my phone. Even comes with a learning resource guide! Thanks for everything 🫡

You can’t even code, as far as i’m concerned.. This app is a great idea on paper. A direct port of Python 3 to mobile. It seems great at first, but it doesn’t even tell you how to actually code. I’ll change my review if I can get some developer support on how to code using this app.

Absolute trash. I have tried closing the app and going back in deleted and reinstalled, still no way of getting rid of the popup to buy premium why not just charge for it and save everyone’s time

Garbage ide. 1. Your code gets kidnapped in this app. They will let you code and everything then when you close the app and try opening again, it tells you to buy or your code would be lost. I couldn’t believe an open sourced IDE for python to cost money, and it’s also very expensive so it’s a scam 2. You cannot properly select lines, or even move your cursor 3. Running the program is weird, very different from python on pc

Can’t see what I’m typing. App looks great and seems to have all the functionality I’d want. However, when I start typing, the view “jumps” up and I can’t see what I’m typing anymore. Also the last line of a file will always be partially covered by the keyboard.

Couldn’t open the app. Couldn’t open the app.

Pro promotion po-pup problem. Whenever i launch the app, there’s a pop-up for ‘’python editor pro‘’ promotion that cannot be dismissed. There is no ‘’x’’ button or swipe function to close back the pop-up then the app is locked in the pop-up forever. I have just installed it and i cannot use it. I’m not even rating this app because i could never see how it works. The pop-up problem is probably due to the display format of my iphone 8 and it better be fixed since the app is unusable for now.

Forces you to buy Pro. This app now forces you to buy “Python Editor Pro” in a pop-up that cannot be closed. Used to be decently good.

Popup that now forces you to pay.. The app used to be amazing without ads too but now there is a pay wall that appears before you can even use the app. At this point make the app cost money

Ignore the comments. The launching is fixed now. Great app, simple to use, lots of stuff. Also, is there a way to change the Python version?

Forces payment. Force you to pay when it doesnt even support many libraries like selenium, tkinter, pygame, keyboard, etc

U GOTTA PAY 🤮🤢😂. Placed one word in, left the app, and then suddenly I gotta pay for a subscription 🤦🏻‍♂️🤮 The only reason I gave a star is cuz 0 ain’t an option 😭

No free version. Forces to pay to use

Lack of modules. Please add basic modules and terminals, like pygame, tinkter etc Btw good and simple app.

Very expensive subsription. Not worth it

You have to pay for a free language.. Pretty straightforward. You have to pay a monthly subscription for it. There used to be an X on the subscription pop up, but now that it’s removed you have to pay.

5 stars. it’s a great coding app on mobile. feature requests: can you add problems and errors to define what is the issue. other request can you add a debug mode. last request could you add AI Integration like openai so the user puts their openai api key and can use the ai to help code and define problems and ask questions about those issues or code. thanks for the amazing app ❤️🌸

Pro. Forces me to purchase pro version

Lies about being free. Says free but then immediately asks for payment upon opening the app. Very sneaky tactic…

You have to pay to use. I’m just trying to be able to practice writing on the go but the app doesn’t work unless you pay a monthly fee.

Scam. Forces you to purchase before any action can be taken. Please report

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Doesn’t do anything. Can’t even type in the editor. Does basically nothing expect create files.

You have to pay. I need python for learning and something like that but the pay ad wont go off

Don’t waste your time. This app literally won’t let you do ANYTHING until you give them your money and pay for a trail. Huge scam don’t buy.

Harasses you with premium. I can’t click away from this ad.

Scam. Why is it a scam? Because it is listed as a free app but it forces you to agree to a subscription after a free trial for the pro version. You CANNOT use the app without agreeing to the subscription.

Paid app. Once you open this app, you should pay money. There’s no other choice!

Forced Paywall. App forces you to subscribe to an absurdly expensive pro version. There is no option not to subscribe to use it. Save your time, don’t download

Useless. Either the new iPad or the python, does not work at all, can’t even type in the editor.

Paid only. It unexpectedly turned to paid only version. This is surprising and disappointing :-(

My teacher. My teacher made me use this app and so it is bad and I rate it 2 stars. 1 star for effor

Unusable unless you pay $4/week. Pops up a dialog to subscribe upon open with no way to close. Don’t think it’s worth over $200/year. Uninstalled.

Why?. It’s not really free. it can’ be used! I am very disappointed. I have to change another one. I remember it could be used before.

SCAM..Not free, 3.99 subscription per week.. Constantly asking for subscription and I can’t even type a single word…

Can’t get past upgrade screen. App forces you to upgrade or else you can’t use it. You just see a teddy bear asking you to upgrade for $3/week

Forced Premium. As soon as I opened the app it shoved into my face a premium subscription pop up that you can’t close. This app is NOT FREE. I am not paying 4$ a week to use a free programming software.

Same team as visual pro. Forces you to subscribe to “pro” for 3.99 a week, get outta here.. same layout , colors, and bear picture as visual studio.

Not usable. Pop up ad for premium does not allow you to use the app anymore

Whats the point of the app being free. Because why is a teddy bear with hearts pop up appearing as soon as i open the app asking me for money, bad very bad, ruined my day shacking my head, not very cool guys

Aggressive ads. Can't try the app because they ask you to buy a subscription. I don't want to buy anything I can't try.

No Way To Close Premium Ad. I cant even use the free version because the Subscription ad pops up covering everything with no obvious way to close it.

Bad purchase screen. There is a purchase for python editor pro and there is no way to get out of it and I can’t get into any of my projects

App is NOT free to use. When I open the app a pop up subscription appears and cannot be removed. 3 days free trial and then $3.99 per week. That’s about $207 per year, no thank you

Rating. Pleasant

Pop up ad can’t be closed.. Pop up advertisement for the professional version cannot be closed, rendering the app useless.

Free to download-not use. Can’t use this app without a weekly membership.

Ransom on files. If you miss a payment you get a wall on launch. Pay$3.99 and get your children back. We will see

Editer pro. There isnt a button to close the “Python Editer Pro” page, and it just pops up at random and makes you close and reopen the app and lose progress

Four Bucks a Week is Nuts. Trial went ok, but paywall makes it useless. Nobody will pay this kind of money. It’s as if they want to fail.

Not free. Originally, it was great for writing quick scripts, but now every time I open it, it popups up a message to upgrade making it unusable.

Doesn’t work. App doesn’t even launch and from the look of it most of the reviews are fake

Bit confused but ok. I’m confused on how to download third-party modules

Not a Free App. As soon as you open the app your hit with a pop up requiring you to upgrade for $3.99 a week. There is no way to close this pop up.

Can’t use APP. I can’t use the app due to it wanting you to pay for a weekly subscription.

Please put split screen. Please put split screen

I can use it only by purchasing. i want free version

Very noice. Very easy to use.

Pay Wall. You have to Pay to do anything in it now. Was free for years, not worth it especially for the app version. Save your $

App not actualy free. Upon opening you will find a pop up that prevents you from using the app unless you sign up for a $4 weekly subscription

Not free. You can download it for free but you can’t use it for free (without agreeing to pay a $3.99 subscription after 3 days)

Not Free. The app displays a pop up when you open it that forces you to pay. It won't let you use the app in any way

Cannot use app. An ad pops up for the premium immediately, preventing me from using any features of the app.

THIS IS NOT SKIBIDI AT ALL!. The app works well for coding, but there is this stupid problem where the python pro ad pops up, and there is no way to get rid of it. They actually need to fix this.

I love python. I love python so much it’s so amazing

Can’t use. I don’t want pro but it won’t let me open edit and create

Terrible. Until fixed I will leave one star. Can’t use app because of subscription popup.

Not Free!. Will not work until you pay 3.99, don’t waste your time. Inaccessible behind a literal (pay) wall with a bear on it

Deceptive App. I thought this would a great free app to write python. I was wrong. As many other reviews document, the app opens to a purchase screen. Horrible app, very deceptive

Overpriced for something available online for free. 3.99 per week is ridiculous

Too expensive. I paid one week by mistake so I figured I would try it and it’s nice. but $12 per month is just too much.

Required to pay to use. Not willing to pay just to use the app
