Pythonista App Reviews

I love this app!

cool app

I would love Python 3.x... But, this is a great Python IDE. And its on your phone. In your pocket.

This app is perfect for anyone wanting to learn Python. The documentation is excellent. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to program on the go.

This is amazing piece of work.

This is a great application, with a set of extremely useful and well thought out set of features. Using this on the Plus-sized iPhones really feels like living in the future, with a full-featured computer that fits in your pocket. The sharing extension is great fun and lets you inspect the contents of a sharing payload in real time right on your device. There are (of course) some features that I hope the developer brings to future versions, namely built-in solutions for installing packages and synchronizing files with Dropbox or similar, and moving to Python 3. Nonetheless, this is solidly a five-star program. The attention to detail and level of integration with iOS are wonderful.

This app is exactly what Ive been looking for. The only problem is that it runs 2.7. I use Python 3 quite frequently, so it is a bit of a nuisance to have to switch syntax and whatnot, but it is very minor. Thanks for making a great App!

This program is so awesome... (for me - noob, sololearning guy) At start I was sad that there isnt a built-in webbrowser... but when I did get little bit deeper in coding, I realised that I can open webbrowser in this app by writing 2 lines... cool :D Edit: Love this app <3 Just one problem happened to me, that importing photos stopped working for me :( and I dont know how to do it now :/ So my personal rating changed from 99⭐️ apple store stars to 98.5⭐️ :D Oh... Or maybe they have added possibility to import sounds xD but I dont know how.... :D so I should rate higher xD Still much over 5⭐️ xD

perfect app after a few more features: 1. git2go support 2. bash (I know this is for python but it’s just a really great IDE) 3. iOS9 ability to import, export files 4. ssh / scp support 5. multitasking support for iPad pro Thanks, great app!

Pythonista is an outstanding Python IDE. I almost prefer this to coding on a desktop computer. There are a lot of built-in modules for making iOS UIs and using the iOS-specific sensors, along with an excellent module for creating games and animations. The interface is clean and friendly, and you can make custom actions to act on the files you have created.

If you want something to learn or actually USE Python, this is the app! Quit searching. Just use it! The biggest obstacle to this software is Apples policy. No problem, just search for "pythonista dropbox sync" and solve it! I wish we could give this one 10 stars!!!

Currently the press and hold features dont work for the second row ( : to ; undo to redo > to < to " ) This is unfortunate and renders the software mostly unusable. They do work for the numeric row ( = to != + to % and / to ) [EDIT] Reading the forums this is a well documented issue, but fortunately there is a workaround. Instead of pressing and holding, swiping up will activated the secondary button function. One other snag is that the hit areas for the top row of buttons is rather off, resulting in many, many missed inputs. This is very frustrating since numbers and basic mathematical ( 1234567890+*/-= )symbols are so often used. iPad mini retina ME279LL/A OS 9.2.1

More than I could have hoped for in a Python environment for iOS. Pythonista greatly expands the categories of work that I can get done on my iPad Pro (and the external keyboard support is solid—thanks!) Worth far more than what the developers are asking.

It would be awesome if split-screen is supported for iPad Pro. Thank!

I have been searching for a quality mobile Python IDE that is not riddled with bugs for over 3 years and Pythonista is it. Its worth every penny.

I notice most of the bad review are upset because the version of Python isnt the most recent. However the version it uses is the most supported Python version out there. Im new to Python so it doesnt really matter all that much to me. Even if you arent a programmer, I think its still a great app to own! I myself am just starting to learn Python after having experience with Java and C++. After getting used to Python with Vim, I really appreciate the great IDE included in this app and its comparability with the iOS, running apps natively on your device. All in all, definitely worth the $10.

No means of importing or exporting text files. Mkay. Even free apps have this feature!

This is the app that pushed me over the edge to get an iPad Pro. This pushes the limits of an iPad to true developer tool. Cant wait for version 3 and wont mind paying more to support this fantastic developer

This app is great for ppl who want to learn python or make utilities on the iOS. Ability to make shortcut apps on the Home screen to your script is great, like making your own iOS app on the iOS!!! Would like dropbox support to sync files/scripts (github would be even better for us coders) and a splitscreen mode where you can open the web browser alongside the editor... To google python tricks or view the documentation side by side or even reference another script.

The best app for programming on your iPhone you will find on the App Store.
