This app is honestly pretty nice. It doesn't have a paid version, which is already really good, it has no ads, and guess what- it has a dark mode! Some keywords are color coded, and it also lets you save and load things! Only things I think could be better would be that whenever an error occurs, it skips lines with comments and such. This makes it difficult to see the issue. Other than that, I just want the console to scroll properly with loops.

Decent! Simple! Clean! But not great... yet! The console output is styled well. Array and object data outputted to the console is staggered and displayed in a very readable way, instead of as a long line of comma separated values strung together between two brackets, as with other poorly designed apps. One major problem is that there is no line numbering!! You'll have to count the lines yourself to find every "Error in line # :..." error. Another issue is the "run" button on the top toolbar. It should always be floating directly above the keyboard so that a user doesn't have to reach so far, to the top of the screen, to run code. Allow the option to position it to the right or left of the screen, for left handed users. At least "run" hides the keyboard when pressed to show the console, which is good. Next, the cursor is too sensitive. When there are many lines to scroll through, the cursor behaves badly and jumps about following the lowest line displayed or, sometimes, your scrolling finger. It should stay where it was left by the user, until explicitly re-positioned. Needs a few more themes and font styles/sizes.

Thanks for you feedback! FYI, there were some improvements in the app (actually some issues reported by you have been fixed).
- Line numbers added
- Now the code edit text area has a scroll bar, thus the "run" button is asways visible
> Next, the cursor is too sensitive.
Can you please provide more detailed steps?

I like this simple effective app. One thing to fix: When I use the dark theme I cannot see the"Cut Copy Paste" menu very well. The text blends in with the background too much. I can see the menu clearly in the bright theme. Another issue: If I tap "New" and close the app, then open the app, my old code is still there. I would think that it should be gone.
