Need to be updated

I’ve always been a huge fan of your app but it needs to be updated to iOS 11. I’ve been waiting for the update for a long time and it doesn’t seem like it’s gonna come out. I just wanna let you guys know that people still use and love your app. So if you updated it that’d be awesome!

NOT what I had hoped

By invoking Apple, I had expected it to be an identical representation of AppleBASIC from my HS years, expanded to represent higher resolution, BT and touch technologies. Not so. The language and syntax are sufficiently different that I cannot get more than the most rudimentary programs to work (think dumb loops). I never had access to GW-BASIC functions like WHILE-WEND and ENDIF in the BASIC I used. "?" stood in for PRINT... but not here.Very disappointing...

Fun, fun, fun

This is not only a great intro to programming, you could actually make useful stuff with it. I see that the last update was a while ago. I hope they continue to support this because it's terrific.

Perfect for what I do.

Okay, to start with, yes, the internal text editor leaves much to be desired with how it jumbles the lines rather than keeping things straight. Despite that imperfection, Basic! truly is a throwback to my childhood when I used to program Basic on a PreComputer 1000. However, instead of short text-based RPGs, I use Basic! for creating stochastic music.(Protip: it's best to use a text editor with Dropbox exporting to program your stuff and then copy/paste into the Basic! app to run it. The Basic! app itself has limited slots for programs internally, and can't upload to Dropbox. These features would be nice internally, but squashing bugs and improving stability are more important.)

App is fun and useful, needs 64-bit update!

Out of the hundreds of iOS apps I’ve ever purchased, this is one of only three 32-bit apps that I still use regularly — er, that I DID use regularly, before my phone was updated to iOS 11. Please make an updated version. I’d even be happy to pay a few bucks for a new Basic!

Yay!! Updated!

Update: This app has finally been updated for iOS 11 and 12! I’m thrilled to be able to use all my old programs I wrote in here. It seemed like it had been abandoned, I’m so glad it wasn’t!Old review:Unless it's updated, this app will not work at all anymore when iOS 11 releases this fall (or now for beta users!) this is the one 32 bit app I will most hate to lose when I update (and I have more than 600 apps). Please update basic soon! I'd hate to lose all my programs!

Excellent starter

I just want to begin with, I haven't delved into the capabilities of this app yet. However, it is an amazing tool to teach my 9 yr old granddaughter about programming. She's amazed that she can make the computer "do" stuff. And what comes with learning programming, is learning how to think in steps, break big things down into little things, and how to "debug" because you never get things right the first time around.

Having. Issues on iPad2

So I've been using this app for awhile on my original iPad1. I've recently downloaded onto my iPad2 but am having trouble running my saved programs, in that the enter/return button doesn't do anything half the time. If I keep typing in the input and hitting enter maybe it eventually works, or if I hit the minimize keyboard button sometimes that works. I even tried using my Bluetooth keyboard and that didn't solve the problem. It's also not just on my old saved programs also on new ones that I've tried to mess with just to see if it was because they were old programs from my iPad1. If this sounds familiar to anyone or the Devs can help I'd appreciate it because all in all it was my favorite BASIC program.

Please update to iOS 11

I have been making programs with this app for years and I really don’t want to lose them but now that I am updated to iOS 11, I can’t use this app any more. I really want to be able to use it again!

Fun way to use time

I got this application back when it hadn't been updated yet with the hopes that it would be (interest possibly = stimulus). Now that it works again, I find it to be a most enjoyable way to spend my time. Additionally, it's nice how there aren't obnoxious fees for compilations or anything like that.
