  1. 5/5Use with SICP, perfect

    I can cut & paste on my IPad running iPad OS 14.6, between a .PDF of SICP, and execute the examples perfectly in this excellent app. GUI takes a little getting used to, no big deal though. Fun to play around with! Bravo to the developer!

  2. 4/5arrow keys needed!

    Amazing app for practicing scheme on your phone! I appreciate it and recommend it! The only one thing that I would ask developer: please, if it’s possible and not too hard, add arrow keys to virtual keyboard, at least left and right ones.

  3. 5/5Get it, you won’t regret it!

    R7RS Scheme always with you wherever you go (assuming you take your phone with you everywhere of course 😉)

  4. 5/5A great Scheme implementation

    This is a beautiful programming environment. The user interface is clean and easy to use. Documentation is clear and extensive. There are scads of libraries available.
