Pydroid 3
What Pydroid 3 is
Pydroid 3 is an educational Python 3 IDE for Android, with an interpreter that can run programs without an internet connection. It includes pip and a repository of prebuilt wheels, with packages such as NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, scikit-learn and Jupyter. The listing also names support for OpenCV, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Tkinter, Kivy, PySide6 and pygame; OpenCV requires a device with Camera2 API support. C, C++ and Fortran compilers are included, and the app supports Cython.
For debugging, Pydroid 3 has a PDB debugger with breakpoints and watches. Its editor offers syntax highlighting, themes, tabs, an extended keyboard bar and code navigation. Code prediction, auto-indentation and real-time code analysis are Premium-only. The free plan is ad-supported and excludes Premium-only features and libraries. Pydroid 3 requires at least 250 MB of free internal memory, with 300 MB or more recommended. The privacy policy says the app may collect crash and requested pip-package statistics; error logs may contain device and usage details. It also names Google Play Services, AdMob, Google Analytics for Firebase and Firebase Crashlytics as third-party services. The developer is Lider Soft KZ, based in Kaskelen, Kazakhstan.
