Processing & p5.js iCompiler

I am surprised that this iOS version of processing isn’t installed in my iPad since I didn’t even get any option to install instead its straightly running through the AppStore, it’s the first of this kind I ever encountered so I am bit confused if it was originally created to use without installation or it’s a bug issues in my iPad... so anybody please kindly help me to clear my doubts... thank you....

It seemingly randomly reverts progress and there is no save option other than to export the script as a file. I will not pay for an app that deletes entire functions and classes that I spent days working with. This seems to happen more often when using multiple .pde tabs, and when switching tabs it often undoes all work done in the previous tab after the new tab was created. Horrible file management and the data loss is not worth it.

If you try to upload pde files and run them, they won’t work. You have to pay $25 to “unlock” compiler output to see what’s wrong. I’d rather make my own app than pay tax to see a compiler output.

Imagine the least you could do for a Processing app, and you have this app. A huge disappointment. - No local reference (I can open the web reference by myself; it’s NOT THAT MUCH WORK) - No code complete/insight - the console is UNUSABLE for anything more than a single line - Not up to the standard of the current desktop app This is JUNK. PLEASE DO BETTER.

I love the fact that I can use this editor to work on sketches when I don’t have internet available, but several times I’ve had a situation where I’ve done substantial work on a file and found out later that none of my changes were saved and the file has reverted to an earlier version.

I absolutely love this app. I greatly appreciate coding apps that work without WiFi, and this is the only one I’ve found for Processing. A bug I’ve found, however: I’ll be working on a project, then my phone will fall asleep, I’ll wake it back up, and the changes will be reverted back and I’ll lose up to a few files of work. I’m not sure how or why this happens but I think it’s worth looking into. Secondly, and this is not a bug, just a design thing, the syntax highlighter highlights “bool” in orange - but the keyword is “boolean”. So a line of code will like this: “boolean flag = false;” And “bool” will be orange, while “ean” will be white.

I get it’s open source and free to use (I’d pay for it if a: there were a list of features I’d get for that, and b: I could find the in-app purchase page), but the import project folder feature doesn’t work. If this is something that’s a benefit for paying users, it should either be disabled or lead to the subscription page. A coder-friendly keyboard would be a plus, but I can manage. For doing quick Processing sketches on the fly, it’s good enough but don’t expect to be able to do more complex projects.

Love this for playing around on my phone. I understand wanting payment for advanced features like debug messages. But please put a list of the major limitations of the compiler somewhere. Through reading reviews it seems that vectors and maybe functions with parameters are not supported. But a list from the Dev would be much appreciated.

Maybe I’m just crazy, but if i have a custom function with any parameters, the whole screen renders black. No parameters? Fine, works fine, but I need parameters to work :(
