Probably one of the most unintuitive apps I've used. A lot of things in certain tabs don't even fit to screen properly, and I was looking to continue my 100 days of python on my phone when away which seems to not be possible. I can open it, but I can't view the instructions because they're not even visible. Oh, they also try to sell you a subscription too despite these problems.

Disappointed AF :-/ You removed every feature that brought me to this app. I downloaded this with absolutely zero experience because of your list of features and was able to work around every unforseen obstacle with ease using 'teams' and other student/mentor features. I could test and retest every small change while learning on the fly. I'm nowhere near developer status, let alone premium forker deployment status. And now I'm at a standstill with this app..

they made a whole keyboard extension and there's still no tab key. Not really a problem unless you work with Python (most used language in replit!) or another significant white space language. Also, when long pressing to select text on pixel 4a it loses focus 90% of the time and the green bars go away. Otherwise, this is the best option for mobile development by far.

Replit overall is fine. The code editor works well enough, it runs pretty fast, and I like being able to collaborate live on code without much effort. The issue is in trying to get into my account. The Replit account I use is associated with a Google account that is not the default account on my phone. For whatever reason, I can't select the account I want to use to sign in to Replit; I'm just stuck using an account without any of my projects saved to it.

Great app, very useful for coding algorithms on the fly. Some issues I've experienced on Pixel 4A: 1) When keyboard is open, I can't scroll to the bottom of my code. 2) When selecting text (with two green bars), the selection sometimes loses focus. 3) No landscape mode. 4) Intermittent performance issues.

Handy for working on side projects. Ghostwriter helps a lot with boilerplate. Wish the webview wouldn't occasionally hang/not detect code changes in the project. Unit tests with Python don't detect imports from project folders and end up installing external packages with the same names as them, forcing me to create my own test scripts. Having the save status icon from the web version on the mobile app would be nice. The app improved a lot over time, but there's certainly more to improve.
