Ratings and reviews

So far so GOOD! I beleave the developers of this app has put a lot of work into it's delevopment. The only bug I encountered that trouble me was vanishing code. The disappearing text is usually only a line or two of text at the end of the program. And is pretty easy to find and correct. I realize has issues, it is pretty good and a work in progress.

It does have ads in between running the code, but it doesn't pop up every time, and you can easily exit out of them in seconds. As for the editor itself, it's great, has all the features that make it usable, perfect for when you need to try some code real quick and can't access your computer.

Cursor movements suck! When i try to move the cursor by touching on a particular portion, the cursor just doesn't go there. What makes it even worse is that when i use the keyboard cursor control it only moves in left direction only. Either you guys just fix this issue or allow cursor control for both ways. Please address this issue as soon as possible, because its a very irritating experience.
