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.

Recent reviews

Nothing really works. “Run” opens a terminal window for you to invoke Lua interpreter manually each time you want to run your script. All edits must be saved manually, there’s no warning if you didn’t. Menus are scrolling, code editor is annoying as hell as is this whole thing. It’s just a waste of time
