Some of the previous reviewers were right when they said the app has problems. Just using a simple goto command doesn't always work. In my program I want to loop using a goto command to go to a certain line and instead it goes all the way back to the beginning and I can't figure out why it's doing that. Also if you go to the settings & come back to your screen it highlights the screen in blue and wont go away unless its restarted. Regret paying for it. Should offer a trial first!

UPDATE: When I fist installed the app, it did not run on my Pixel 2 under Android Pi. On reading the review, the author contacted me and offered to fix it. WIthin a day or two, an update rolled out and it now works. Not only does it work on my phone, but it works on my Chromebook. Nice implementation of Basic, and great support from the developers. Wishlist: * That the on-screen keyboard could be taken off screen (useful when working on a tablet with a keyboard attached, or on a Chromebook. * That physical keyboard supported all keys (I'm having to use the on-screen keyboard for certain shifted characters)
