Pythonista 3

Python IDE

Published by: Ole Zorn

Description

Pythonista is a complete scripting environment for Python 3.10, running right on your iPad or iPhone, so you can develop and run Python scripts on the go.
Like Python itself, "batteries are included" – from popular third-party modules like requests, numpy, matplotlib, pandas (and many more) to modules that are tailor-made for iOS. With Pythonista, your scripts can access sensor/location data, your photo library, contacts, reminders, the clipboard, and more, allowing you to harness the full potential of both Python and iOS.
Pythonista is designed with a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for anyone to get started with coding, regardless of skill level. The complete Python documentation is also available for offline reading in the app.
Pythonista is not just for learning and practicing Python – it's also a powerful tool for automating iOS with multiple app extensions. You can invoke scripts directly from the share sheet or a custom system keyboard in almost any app, and integrate scripts with Shortcuts and Siri. With Pythonista, it's easy to run your scripts whenever you need them, without having to switch between different apps.
Features:
> Powerful code editor with syntax highlighting, code completion, and scripting support
> Interactive prompt with code completion, command history, and support for showing images
> Integrated visual debugger and object inspector
> Complete offline documentation with quick lookup directly from the editor
> Various beautiful light and dark color themes, and a theme editor to make your own
> UI editor for quick prototyping
> Integrated PEP 8 style checker and code formatter
> Supports most of the Python standard library and additional modules for graphics, sound, and iOS integration (for example clipboard, contacts, reminders, photos, ui...)
> Many popular third-party modules included, for example requests, numpy, matplotlib, pandas, Pillow...
> Lots of included examples
> Universal app for iPad and iPhone
> Share sheet extension for running scripts from almost any app
> Scriptable system-wide keyboard to use Python in any app that edits text
> Advanced integration with the Shortcuts app, allowing you to use Python scripts as actions in shortcuts and personal automations.
Please note that Pythonista is not designed to enable the installation or download of additional modules written in compiled languages (C/C++). While many popular native libraries are included and work out-of-the-box, it is generally not possible to install additional modules with C/C++ dependencies.

This is a very good product, period.

is the app still being updated?

Great app but seems its not updated any longer, couple of crashes in the last week and now more crashes daily.

Pyrhon Libraries not working

unhappy programmer on

South Africa

I can install libraries but they are not working in Pythonista. I just get error on error but doing the some on Raspberry works fine. I want to install pandas but numpy that is in the standard library is version 1.8.0 and pandas need version 1.8.2 and it cannot be upgraded so this app is just for basic programming.

Literally the best app ever

Pythonista is amazing because it supports most of the python 3.6 modules, and it is extremely easy to use and user friendly, but very powerful ate the same time. It is the most powerful python app on iPad so far, and has helped me to progress in python, when I don’t have my laptop. Plus, it has its own modules such as UI, which can be used to make interactive apps or widgets, and has perfect support for web scraping and internet security penetration testing. It is also very fast for AI learning, and is great overall.

@developers can you help me with how to install pandas it is import that the pip install feature work or I would like a refund.

Disappointed: Refund Denied for Unusable App

LittleTeenyTiny1 on

United States

I downloaded the Pythonista app to modify an Apple setting to auto-run on command. While the app provides detailed pictures of its layout, I quickly found it overwhelming. This app is clearly designed for users who already have a solid understanding of Python and know how to navigate complex UI interfaces. Unfortunately, it doesn’t teach you how to use Python or how to make the app work for your needs. I requested a refund through Apple, stating that the app didn’t work as I expected, but my request was denied. I feel like I wasted my money and cannot recommend this app to beginners or anyone unfamiliar with Python.

Missed Opportunities with OpenAI/ChatGPT

Eirikr1848 on

Pythonista on its own is great. But for someone confined with limitations in both their physical and virtual environments: Pythonista is missing a major opportunity for next-level coding and learning with ChatGPT or even with Claude as well. On Mac? ChatGPT can integrate with countless apps to read what’s going on. Pythonista could and should have taken it a step farther by having full ChatGPT code environment hand-off and read/write integration for local code / script execution (including R). ChatGPT’s code environment usually has around 750MB RAM free which can quickly become insufficient with neural networks. Copying and pasting, iterating, works: but is suboptimal. The solution for when ChatGPT detects its in the iPhone app and running into memory constraints is to ask “would you like me to use your local Pythonista environment” and then execute and display results back in both the app and in ChatGPT, sometimes back to Claude for it to fix something. ChatGPT is a great start, and Claude would be a wonderful addition. Pythonista is gorgeous and functionally brilliant and fast. Pythonista should become the “go-to” for AI coding offloads on iPhone… otherwise other solutions will make their way there eventually. Only a matter of time…

Such a great way to do Python on the go. Especially with my iPad, but also nice for iPhone . It doesn’t need WiFi. Turtle works great… everything works great. Thank you!
