Great but some bugs
Very useful, pretty much the only good code editor for iPads but it has a few issues. The autosave is the main one. It autosaves very infrequently which is a bit annoying and there's no manual save button (although it does save whenever you preview it). A big problem with the saving process itself means that it sometimes causes corruptions. Occasionally if you switch from one file to another and back the original file becomes completely empty or duplicates the second file for some reason.

Needs a UI overhaul
Good but hard
2025-10-21
Code editor yes, is it good? Not really
So I tried it for a couple of minutes and pretty quickly I found out that there’s no actual way of running any code on this thing which is a bummer; especially when it comes to coding (unless if there was actually a way to run the code and I’m stupid).
Also when it comes to editing html; usually you would want the code editor to help you with your opening and closing tags (or maybe I’m just too used to visual studio code UI and am just being picky), but on this code editor it doesn’t help you with that and you have to manually press tab to format the code and manually add the closing tag which can be pretty frustrating sometimes.
Finally what I think is the WORST part of this app is that not only do they not help you with auto indent formatting (unless I’m stupid and can’t find the setting toggle) but if you were to select everything and press tab; instead of formatting all the code to be indented, everything just gets deleted and replaces with a tab break.
So overall what are my thoughts on this app? I feel that this app is more like a slightly more dignified text editor rather than something for coding. If you want to edit or view unusual file types in your apple device, then I think that this is a great app for that. Else if you’re like me and want to actually try some coding on here, I think this is no where near the most suitable app for that.

Would Recommend!
Most code edtiors on mobile have limted files and arent the best, Koder has BARELY any limits on files! just need to find the output button xd
2025-03-26
Absolutely Amazing!
Honestly can’t believe this app is free, I’d have happily paid for a pro version just to support the developer. It’s that good.
2024-12-31
great app but only supports html
In the short time I spent using this, I found it very useful but could not find any support for other languages.
2024-10-30
Приложение супер!
Отличное приложение, особенно порадовал локальный сервер)
2024-10-04
Kinda broken
Sometimes, whenever I open a json file to edit, the app stops and show a loading and it takes a while for me to fix this, pls fix this bug, also great app!
2024-08-03
Suck app
Can’t be suck any more, even without a run button
2024-06-16
No auto-save
Lost 3 days of work on a file because the app reloaded. Apparently it wasn’t saving anything I wrote that whole time.
2024-05-03
trash
deleted my code randomly twice
2024-02-03
It’s Nice but something that Annoys me
Whenever I try to unzip a File into a Folder, it takes me to the app, Please Fix this
2023-07-29
Great for editing on the go
Great app, easy to use with the main functions I want from an editor.
My only minor frustration is that it jumps to the start of the file when switching between apps which interrupts workflow when jumping between editing and testing. Would also be useful to have dedicated cut and paste buttons when not using a seperate keyboard. But these are both minor, overall app is awesome.
2023-06-24
My files were deleted
On the 23 June 3hours of work were deleted under my app
For me to get this app back I need for u too Send a developer response
2023-06-08
Great but more features please
Please add markdown support! If you already do, please show me how. Also wouldn’t mind a way to connect to Github.
2023-05-25
👍
This is the best app to code on iPad.
2023-02-23
Needs more features
Overall very nice app, but it would be nice to be able to toggle text wrapping and have multiple pre-defined comment types on hand.
2023-01-10
Setup
Can’t figure out how to make custom tags so that I can type faster and setup my development faster. I am wanting to do html, css and JavaScript projects.
2022-11-02
Awsome
Totally awsome!
Must have for anyone doing coding!
2022-10-20
Great App but could do one more thing
I’ve been using the app for a while and I love it very intuitive and easy to use however I feel the thing that would make the app excel even more would be running python files from inside the apart from that its a great app.
2022-07-13
It doesn’t let me type
It won’t let me type code and it won’t help with problem
2022-05-13
Looks promising, but some bugs
Crashes when attempting to create a file on a WebDAV server. At be a permissions issue. Would also be nice to have an easier workflow to upload images; rather having to add them locally; select the image and then upload. Instead, if one could simply upload whilst browsing the destination, that would be ideal.
2022-03-19
Perfect
Overall, this app is great. It works as intended, and is much better than other text editors I have tried.
Oh and also, it’s the only app I’ve found that doesn’t crash when opening HUGE text files.
2021-12-13
6/5 stars
Seriously, this is Visual Studio for mobile. I recommend it so much
2021-12-05

Best
2021-08-11
iPad Perfect
I have searched for a coding solution since moving most of my work to the iPad Pro. Koder is perfect. The best out there. I love the easy integration with the file sytems, online drives and servers and how sleek the interface is. Thank you. 6 stars.
2021-08-11
Always clearing my files
Good app apart from the fact that my files get deleted randomly, causing a lot of time wastage.
2021-01-15
Crashes on open
I was loving it. I started using the FTP feature - awesome - then it started crashing on open. Instantly threw me back to home screen of latest IPAD Pro. So annoying. I deleted and reinstalled it and it’s back to working again.
2020-12-25
Freezes on iOS
Keeps freezing when I open
2020-03-11
Fantastic
Fantastic for just writing code down. I like how when I put ’<‘, it automatically puts an ending one on the other side of my cursor.
One wish would be that this app allowed you to run programs.
2020-02-14
Pretty good
Review Update 14/2/2020: cursor control is less frusrating with code completion turned off, but then you don't have code completion.
Zoom would be a good addition. I use it alot on textastic.
2020-02-13
Buggy
I can’t delete files.
When I share files into the app from somewhere like email, it asks where to save it, but offers no controls to go back to the parent folder, nor to confirm the destination.
2020-01-19
A must need app!!
Coding on my iPad has never been easier!
2019-12-09
Sort files needed
Nice clean app. Need to be able to sort files in file list by date. Bug tap in blank file area and app exits.
Nice clean app. Looking forward to using as Dropbox text file editor
2019-06-12
Dark mode?
(For the browser) Great app other than that
2019-03-29
thank you very much
amazing and free, very useful and thank you very much. Only thing not works is open ssh does not open current sftp project.
2019-01-13
Works Great
Was surprised to find that this app supported assembly language syntax highlighting, which I have been looking out for for a while - great app and very clean design! Seems like this app is new or returning and as of my writing is free so I’ve got no complaints. Good job developers!
