QPython 3L - Python for Androi

A Google user

Its a solid IDE. The shell itself is alright. I'd like to have the option to change the font, much like how you can change the font in the editor (Gotta get that monospace). The editor is alright too. The find and replace function is lacking though. Its definitely not perfect, but its Python on Android. What do you expect? It allows me to waste time, and I appreciate that.

This app is great for doing python on your phone. The reason that it is 4 stars is that you can't just have auto highlight off all the time. You have to have at least 100 lines at minimum to turn it off. If you could just have it off by default, that would make this on of the best python apps for android.

Not super comfortable and had some issues. Uses a non-standard 4 spaces on tab and doesn't allow changing this default. While you can run scripts from other folders it doesn't default the path to that folder but instead keeps the default which messes up import statements. No auto save. No tkinter for gui. Overall, solidly does the job but worse than a competitor which has ads. If you're only planning to write and run them through this program it should serve you well.

I'm glad to have an operational Python with Android-specific modules, but the peripheral design is quite bad. Switching between console and editor is very clumsy. The console lacks history & copy/paste, severely limiting its value. Creating a new file is a very well-hidden feature! Save-as and rename appear to be entirely absent. EDIT: Increased my rating after considering the competition. Termux/Python has no Android support. UserLAnd/anything is awkward & not Android-focused.

Very great app, only notes, please add more customization. And i mean like make the whole app customizable. It would make this even better than it already is. Like add custom main screens, make that bottom bar custom, maybe even add python plugins for the customization. The only reason i gave 4 stars was to hopefully have the devs see my review, which i would then change to 5. You dont stumble across an app this great very often. Im glad i found it.

Great app but has some flaws: 1. Installing libraries is often not possible. So you're sometimes restricted to the standard library. 2. Highlighting: print("".join(things)) Now everything from the quotes onwards will be highlighted. (only happens at places with "" or '' without anything in-between) 3. Copy&Paste dublicates the end of the string?

looks like this had the potential of being the best python IDE around but looks like it hasn't been updated for over a year. too many current bugs that others have already described. was really looking forward 2 something with real GUI support which this does not have. UPDATE: Changed from 3 stars to 4 with newest update.

1) There should be some keyboard option to put a TAB indentation properly. 2) Auto-code formatter is not there. 3) There should be some button to produce keyboard interrupt when output console gets stuck in infinite loop. On Android's Google keyboard we don't have Ctr+C or Pause-Break key like on computer's keyboard. I hope development team will solve these little issues soon in next update! By the way! Thanks for giving us such a nice app which keeps Python3 running in our pockets too.

Qpython is as good as it gets for a python ide on Android. The UI is versatile and intuitive. The installed libraries all function correctly, and there are plenty of other libraries that will install. The problems other reviewers are encountering come from the limits in Android, not Qpython. Some libraries simply aren't supported by, or optimized for mobile devices. Qpython does everything as advertised, to the best of its abilities. If you need to code on the go, this is the app you want

discovered 2 limitations within 60 seconds. 1) no paste, 2) no up/down arrows to cycle back and forth through previous commands. Both are important on desktop, but much more so on a mobile device where typing is slower.
