Comments on ArduinoDroid - Arduino/ESP IDE for Android
★★★★★DEEMAH _Techs· Apr 19, 2026
GOOD APP. BEST FOR BEGINNERS. BUT CNA THE DEVELOPER MAKE THIS APP SUITABLE FOR ESP 32 CAM. BECAUSE IT HAS SOME ERROR WITH SOME LIBRARY LIKE BLE, ESP32 CAM

Once I entered what board I was using and set up my Android's [Use the USB for File Transfer], I ran the Blink code installed in the app (the "Hello World" of this coding), and my project is blinking as hoped. Works, I'm impressed. 5-stars easy!
★★★★★Ricky Salgueiro· Mar 20, 2026
Is a very nice app good vor Arduino UNO Controller Board
★★★★☆Alexis Hernandez· Apr 12, 2026
Wish it supports Core 3. X in Esp, most of my projects are in that ver. So it's better to use this for arduino boards.
★☆☆☆☆Manish Pal Singh· Jun 9, 2026
I was using it from last 3 years facing a lot of problems, but I ignored because I think I was beginner, but now I know how to use these things even after that I am facing many problems to using that because it has a hard data structure it shows a hard complex puzzled message for the error message, so we cannot understand that and improve the code and even if after a lot of attempt when I try the code on PC that works the environment is complex even I try to delete and re download it, but it doesn't
