First: As I have seen some a bit hostile responses to questions like this here so please tell me to fuck off if I'm in wrong. :)
I want to be able to run Python programs on my Android phone. The main usage will be file management and editing of text files etc. Maybe use it to control or monitor activities on the phone. I'm not asking for anything about coding in Python, maybe except Android specific things. (I'm not familiar with coding with Python but will learn that by other means).
So in short: what to install, how to install (in short - I have not any experience in installing these kind of software on my phone) and elementary pitfalls.
(Background: have been programming professionally since 1979 and are still doing that. Mainly mainframe.)

I am wondering if it is possible to run a python script from a mobile phone. Is there an app that simulates something like a bash terminal window? And since my phone is almost always up and running, would it be possible to use it as a remote server (think DigitalOcean's droplet) with scheduled jobs (cron)? Ideally, I could create (edit, test) my scripts on my Linux machine and then run them from my mobile.

pls tell if this is actually possible ๐๏ธ
It's similar to how you can write a 20 page academic paper on Android. Does the functionality exist to make it theoretically possible? Yes.
Will you have a good time doing it? Fuck no.
Use an app like PyDroid or if you're running termux then you can simply write the code in a file with the .py extension using your editor of choice (nano, vim etc) and run the command
python path/tofile/mycode.py
Just wondering what people use for writing code from an android device? I spend alot of time doing nothing at work, night shifts in a small shop are fun... Figure I can use that time to practice small things unable to bring my laptop but allowed to use my phone. I was looking at Kivy and Pydroid but not sure what's best.
I thought of just coding a small fun project while I travel, but I cannot carry my personal laptop at all times, so I was searching for an IDE that would allow me to code quickly using features similar to intellisense. The code can be run locally or on a hosted python runtime while the app uploads the code and runs and returns the result of errors (security considerations aside).
I know this won't be as good as using a real IDE on a laptop/PC, but would it be good? I'd love to hear your opinions.
Edit : Main aim is to have an easy to Use IDE in Android
Run python Library on different device but is it reverse compatible?
Hi im wondering whats the best app to code python in for Android, i dont have any pc as of now
Best i have is PyDroid rn
Hey all, I've got a small discord bot that I would like to keep running in the background on my phone, as I know my phone is always on, unlike my laptop. I've tried running it on pydroid in the background, but the app eventually stops. Is there a better solution out there? Thanks in advance
I am new to Java (and to be honest programming as a whole) and I am trying to do a very basic IOT project. I have a super simple (like 10 line) python code that I am using to pull Data from a MQTT broker (Adafruit IO) and wanted to know if it was possible to run this code in an Android application, and if so, how difficult would it be?
I spend a lot of time on the train that I could be using to practice and test coding. The only device that's practical to me is my mobile android phone.
What's the best set of apps or sites I could use to write my python scripts and test running them through android devices?
I have a few Python quizzing scripts that help me memorize the times tables, squares, square roots, cubes etc.
Is there an Android application that can run Python scripts? I do these "exercises" everyday, so I want to do them on the ago or while I'm just idling around the house without having to reach for my laptop. I tried a few applications (like QPython) but they only allow you to script Python code.
FULL REVIEW here : python mobile ide
here is a list of apps you can use to run python on your mobile phone:
For ANDROID USERS
Pydroid 3 - IDE for Python 3
QPython 3L - Python for Android
Termux
Dcoder, Compiler IDE :Code & Programming on mobile
FOR IOS USERS
Dcoder
Pyto - python 3
OR you can use an online ide from your browser Websites like :
Replit

i want to run python script in background on android i tried pydroid but it didnt work for me because it only works with app open
Long story short, I want to pay a third party to develop an android app. I'm not a developer, but I have a background in scientific programming as an Engineer. I have some python code that performs a bunch of math operations in just a few lines (thanks to the scipy library). Is it unreasonable to expect a developer to be able to transform this python to JAVA (or whatever the language for android app dev is)? Is that a request that anyone has ever received in developing an app?
Are there any good IDEs or even text editors for python available on Android?
My partner and I recently had a baby, and I am working remotely. My baby is a contact sleeper so I spend a lot of my day sitting in a chair holding them and on my phone. I'd like to at least have some way of continuing work while doing this.
I've tried using the GitHub mobile app, but you can only create issues. I also tried Google Keep, but it's not designed for code.
One way is to use Kivy:
Open source Python library for rapid development of applications that make use of innovative user interfaces, such as multi-touch apps.
Kivy runs on Linux, Windows, OS X, Android and iOS. You can run the same [python] code on all supported platforms.
Kivy Showcase app
There is also the new Android Scripting Environment (ASE/SL4A) project. It looks awesome, and it has some integration with native Android components.
Note: no longer under "active development", but some forks may be.
Hey, is there any way to run python in android phone? The code contains few API, which needs to run every few hours. So im looking if there's any way to run this code in my old phone which is connected to internet all the time.
I have written a bot script in python that runs on my PC. Thats fine (although i do have an issue where when the script is running the keyboard goes a big 'laggy' esp in gaming) but what i want to do is run that same script on my android phone.
Now i have modified the script to use libs available for android. The script executes few things in s while loop (infinite loop).
I have found something called PyDroid but I have found that when the Pydroid app is minimized to the background the script stops working. The script needs to keep running even when in the backgrounds and even when phone is locked.
Thanks in advance
