Description
Pydroid 3 is the most easy to use and powerful educational Python 3 IDE for Android.
Features: - Offline Python 3 interpreter: no Internet is required to run Python programs. - Pip package manager and a custom repository for prebuilt wheel packages for enhanced scientific libraries, such as numpy, scipy, matplotlib, scikit-learn and jupyter. - OpenCV is now available (on devices with Camera2 API support). * - TensorFlow and PyTorch are also available. * - Examples available out-of-the-box for quicker learning. - Complete Tkinter support for GUI. - Full-featured Terminal Emulator, with a readline support (available in pip). - Built-in C, C++ and even Fortran compiler designed specially for Pydroid 3. It lets Pydroid 3 build any library from pip, even if it is using native code. You can also build & install dependencies from a command line. - Cython support. - PDB debugger with breakpoints and watches. - Kivy graphical library with a shiny new SDL2 backend. - PySide6 support available in Quick Install repository along with matplotlib PySide6 support with no extra code required. - Matplotlib Kivy support available in Quick Install repository. - pygame 2 support.
Editor features: - Code prediction, auto indentation and real time code analysis just like in any real IDE. * - Extended keyboard bar with all symbols you need to program in Python. - Syntax highlighting & themes. - Tabs. - Enhanced code navigation with interactive assignment/definition gotos. - One click share on Pastebin.
* Features marked by asterisk are available in Premium version only.
Quick manual. Pydroid 3 requires at least 250MB free internal memory. 300MB+ is recommended. More if you are using heavy libraries such as scipy. To run debug place breakpoint(s) clicking on the line number. Kivy is detected with “import kivy”, “from kivy“ or "#Pydroid run kivy”. PySide6 is detected with “import PySide6”, “from PySide6“ or "#Pydroid run qt”. The same for sdl2, tkinter and pygame. There is a special mode "#Pydroid run terminal" to ensure your program runs in terminal mode (this is useful with matplotlib that automatically runs in GUI mode)
Why are some libraries premium-only? These libraries were extremely hard to port, so we had to ask another developer to do that. Under agreement, his forks of these libraries are provided to the premium users only. If you would like to develop free forks of these libraries - contact us.
Take a part in development of Pydroid 3 by reporting bugs or providing feature requests to us. We appreciate that.
As Pydroid 3 main goal is to help user learn Python 3 programming language, our first priority is porting scientific libraries (so system-related libraries are ported only when they are used as dependencies of some other educational package).

GPL pure Python libraries bundled with Pydroid 3 are considered to be coming in the source code form already. Pydroid 3 doesn’t bundle any GPL-licensed native modules to avoid automatic import of them. The famous example of such library is GNU readline, that can be installed using pip. Samples available in the application are free for educational usage with one exception: they, or their derivative works, cannot be used in any competing products (in any way).

Comments on Pydroid 3 - IDE for Python 3 for Android
★★★★☆Badal Ghosh· Aug 23, 2026
Been using ur library for years now, but never encountered problem with gui libs but now the gui libs when I use, then "graphical program output" isn't openable. Pls fix this. And if the "terminal" can be used simultaneously when using the gui libs it'd be really useful.

There are very few apps that I use (infrequently) that I would actually [Pay] for and this is one of them. Don't get me wrong, I spend money on apps, and I've spent several thousand USD on a few games I play over the past few years, but most apps aren't worth paying for but Hydroid (is). It's very well-made with a lot of attention to detail. Technically I don't use Hydroid enough to justify buying Premium since I'm a coding newbie, but I've just had good experiences with it enough to buy it.

The is very nice, and it's easy to write python code and execute them remotely, it also gives access to use many python library though some are premium, it also supports many GUI library like pygame, tkinter, but I have noticed a small problem while testing the GUI code, the app just opens the GUI window and closes to the code editor window when there is an error in the code but the app don't even show any error, so I need to run the code on built-in terminal for finding the error, developers please fix

> pip install numpy > numpy installed > import numpy as nerd lib > no module named numpy
★★☆☆☆Ramanan· Aug 17, 2026
Good, good at graphics, good at speed, can't install libraries related to numpy and subprocess, sometimes slow at execution, while installing libraries I use another app and when I return it not showing installing progress as it kill install them shows barely $

The current UX is getting worse😡😡😡. Having to tap the three dots, open Edit, and then find Undo/Redo is unnecessarily complicated. Undo and Redo should be directly available Please simplify this the current design feels frustrating and unintuitive.
