From the App Store listing
What the app includes.
These are the features the App Store listing describes. The rest of this site documents the Mac app; the mobile app keeps its own release notes on the App Store.
Reuse your code
A built-in library of reusable snippets to start from, or to save your own into.
Run and watch
Split the screen to see code and console at once, use multiple windows, and keep scripts running in the background while you do something else.
Code Assistant
AI-powered suggestions in the editor, with DeepSeek integration using your own API key.
Learn as you go
A Python guidebook and learning resources inside the app.
Check the App Store listing for the current version, requirements and purchase options.
Code and results together
Write a script.
Read its output.
The editor and the console share the screen, so you can run what you just typed and look at the result without leaving the app.
A separate app from the Mac one
Two apps, two workspaces.
Python Editor App for iPhone and iPad and Py Editor for Mac are separate products, with separate downloads and purchases. Projects are not shared between them, and the Mac tools described elsewhere on this site — Git, the Terminal, debugging, tests — are Mac features.
