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.

I've managed successfully getting the device orientation angles, i've recorded a short audio (1 second long) for analyzing this audio using the ffmpeg (in the a-shell), and after that, i've got the surrounding noise volume level. Using the shortcuts alone it is not possible to record a short audio with the iphone screen locked. The a-shell also doesn't allow that. Even using the pyto ide the audio recording failed. I hope, that the author adds also the apple watch support, that the py script could be run right on the watch app (and not on the iphone as the pytho ide does). Using the pythonista py script on the apple watch i can get the watch orientation angles (tilts (alpha, beta)). And i hope, that the haptic engine is also available using the pythonista. As i'd like to use a different type of the haptics within the iOS Shortcuts. Wonderful app!!!🔥🔥🔥
Amazing. Truly.

It works just like on a computer (probably even better). Other sketchy apps didn’t suppot or have stuff like console inputs or the built-in UI editor, and they couldn’t run code in offline mode. This app also has a tutorial/example thingy and supports apple’s shortcuts. Love it.
Absolutely amazing!

This is probably the most useful software I ever bought on the App Store! Paired with a smart keyboard, I can finally do proper desktop-class programming on an iPad.
This version does not function in my iphone xr

I love the ipad version and it works exelently in my old ipad air 2. Unfortunately my iphone xr version crashes at the boot screen. Hope you can fix tis bux soon so I can give five stars to this exellent app.
