Ratings and reviews

The application itself is neat. I can practice from my book while on my rather long bus commute. BUT I wish there were some way to turn off androids auto capitalization when using this app. Also if viewed in landscape mode the text entry box takes up the whole screen, covering the editor, which sucks. But again, that's an android issue, not the app.

An excellent IDE for coding in java. Many great features right on your phone, that you expect from an IDE that runs on PC. Error checking as you type, code completion with links to the relevant javadoc, as well as redo, undo, and my favorite, buttons to move the curser. Unneeded on a PC, its a blessing when writing code on your phone. I would trade the tab button for one that performs a right-click though.

I am just learning Java. It seemed promising for doing homework in a portable device, but I can change my code all that I want, save it, but the code never seems to recompile, as it gives me the same result every single time. Plus, the terminal gives me a spinning circle in the upper left that never goes away, and you can't use a Bluetooth mouse to change tabs; you can only use the touch screen. Plus some UI elements could be smaller to save screen space. If these get fixed it will be great!
