User Reviews

The app is praised as beginner-friendly and easy to use, with ample writing space and a smooth workflow for writing, running, and viewing output, plus free iCloud storage. Repeated drawbacks are stability issues on newer iOS versions (blank screens/typing problems) and a common request for a built-in delay function (Wait). Overall, it’s a solid Lua learning tool when it runs, but iOS compatibility and feature completeness need improvement.
Pros
  • Beginner-friendly and easy-to-use interface.
  • Great for coding Lua on mobile; language is simple and high-quality.
  • Lots of writing space with a clear flow to write, run, and view console output.
  • iCloud-based, free storage for scripts.
Cons
  • Significant iOS compatibility issues on newer versions (iOS 17/18) causing blank screens and preventing typing or running scripts.
  • Missing delay/wait function (Wait()) as a frequently requested feature.

It’s not working with iOS 18 can you fix that?

I create a new document and it just shows a blank page with no keyboard and I can’t write any script into it? It also says that it contains the Lua manual but doesn’t… what exactly is the point of this app?
