Pros and cons of Processing for iPhone app for iPhone and iPad

Processing for iPhone app good for

Very nice but it could be better just by making the app going full screen when running a code
Super app for easy coding experience, now with a colorful and intuitive UI

Some bad moments

This is worth the $2 just in the learning capabilities. I am new to processing and I can tell this app will help quite a bit. But when you make a new file and try to type anything into the editor it crashes. Once this is fixed and I learn some more about js, I will update my review.
The app looks pretty, and all the pre-installed demos work, and you can edit (most of) them. Want to start fresh with a new file and start learning? Nope. The app crashes the moment you tap the screen to start typing. Every. Time. This bug is critical and removes the MAIN purpose of the app. It MUST be fixed, soon. Fixed or not, Im making an appeal to Apple for a refund of my $2 because this bug has been present since the last update was released, EIGHT months ago. The presence of this bug also shows Apple barely tested this app beyond opening it, if they tested it at all. Other notes: the built in reference library is nice, though the intro pages are not scaled to the device screen width like all the other pages, and the functions like touchStart(); are not even IN the reference library. Google that yoself, kids!
Ive been using this app, and a lot of the time I run the code, the app crashes. Dont waste your
Niccolo, seriously, thank you very much for making this app happen. The original Processing App is very clunky. This one is way easier to code in. As an installation artist, having this on the road has enabled me to code in more places and also make small apps native to the iPhone. If there was anyway to say this, you’ve got a hot idea but it needs a few tweaks to real define it. It needs camera and gyro support. Also 3D. Next, try messaging between different iPhone. Maybe pull from the web. And finally, image and video support from the user’s library. These things, or even a few, would make this IDE so powerful for the mobile user. It is so tedious to get an app you make to your phone. It sniffles so much creativity. Going from paying Apple Developer $100 a year, porting a project to Xcode (nightmare), and then uploading it. You can just copy and paste from a desktop comp or white it on the screen and run it. Keep it up, stoked to see it improve, worth a few dollars for sure.
I love the app! And I want more! The Dropbox function does not work, it crash the app. The space to code is really tiny, a big title bar is no need for coding proposes, the font could be tiny for lines more extensive and more lines on screen. Please Niccolo! We are waiting for a update!
This app looks like it has a lot of promise. The built in reference is fantastic and the demos run great. Trying to access the DropBox functionality crashes the app, however. I have iOS 7.1.
