Frequently asked questions
Can you write and run code on an Android phone?
Yes. PocketCode is a full IDE for Android that runs code on-device: 23 language runners execute programs and tests directly on the phone, with no server or internet connection needed.
Does the editor have autocomplete and error checking?
Yes. It ships a Language Server Protocol client (LSP 3.17), so you get real autocomplete, go-to-definition, and live diagnostics with red squiggles under errors — the same intelligence desktop editors provide.
How many programming languages does the editor support?
Syntax highlighting covers 33 languages and formatting 30+, with deeper LSP intelligence for 20+. You also get multi-cursor editing, code folding, and unlimited undo, so it handles serious projects, not just snippets.
Does it support multi-cursor editing?
Yes. The editor supports multiple cursors and selections, code folding, and unlimited undo/redo, so you can edit many lines at once and navigate large files the same way you would in a desktop editor.
Does the editor work offline?
Yes. The editor, language runners, and debugging all work fully offline on Android 9 and newer. Nothing is uploaded, so you can write, run, and debug code with no internet connection at all.
