Sketchware for Arduino - Arduino Coding App
From now, learn and control Arduino using block programming language.
◈ Main feature
- Visual Drag & Drop Integrated development environment (IDE)
- Compile the code in block programming form and upload the result file of the compilation to Arduino using smartphone.
- Support Arduino standard examples in block programming language form, so you can learn about Arduino easy.
- Support the serial monitor to communicate with Arduino.
- Currently, only UNO-compliant boards are available, but we will add more boards and more libraries with future updates.
Sketchware for Arduino is a Scratch-like block programming based integrated development environment (IDE) for controlling Arduino by connecting Arduino directly to smartphone. Regardless of PC, Arduino IDE and Programming language, Anyone can control Arduino anytime, anywhere with a smartphone alone.
Sketchware for Arduino supports official tutorials of Arduino in block programming language form, so you can learn how the required functions are configured.
The project created using block programming language form can be compiled and uploaded to Arduino by connecting Arduino directly to smartphone.
Now, control Arduino with your smartphone without a PC.
◈ What will be added in future updates
- More examples
- More boards and libraries

great app, love the idea to take existing sketchware name and make multiple apps, i would love however to have an emulator. if we are able to emulate say the atmega and attiny line of chips we could program arduino code test it and run it from within the app. i ama aware this would require adding emulation for sensors. however thats really all thats missing from this app edit: i would also like the playstore to support installation of this app on android 5.0, right now i have to update via apk.
Great, but support for boards is lacking. At the moment, only the Uno is supported. Support for other boards would be great.
Really good app but lacking support for most Arduino boards - such a waste - and uses full page dodgy ads, meaning it's really not suitable for teaching children to code.
You guys not Improving Sketchware for Apps. Always Bug Fix Bug Fix Bug Fix. Kindly Add Something New. You will loose Users if you did not Update Sketchware.
i just didn't have laptop but when i saw sketchware arduino app i just amazed because i have been using sketchware create your own apps and i have made so many successful apps from it! j really like it
Nice app even I don't use Arduino, but it would be nice if you updated Sketchware either! it needs many improvements.
Woah! Nice. I was interested in Arduino. And this app will help me! Sketchware ever was my favorite app, still doing this amazing job!
Love the idea, BUT I am using a Arduino 256 board and I would love to see more support for it, for now it's worth 4.9 stars.
Also Make Sketchware for web Development, We are happy , But not enough . Please add more library on sketchware for android . we will use ad src directly block to use library.
Best app for mobile Arduino coding! Other similar coding app for Arduino is just like baby software! But this is not.
He sketchware , U have give a option to write code. And also u must give option to convert codes as your app. Nice app.
This app saves a lot of my time but it would have been a little better if it had a text coding option also
No updates for Sketchware. We can't upload apps in Play Store because of API level!!!!!!!
Nano board not supported. I.have an arduino nano old.bootloader. what can i do with that app? Trash for me untill you adds.new board types. please add Arduino nano old.bootloader.
GUYS DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME DOWNLOADING THIS STUPID APP, THE DEVELOPERS WILL JUST LEAVE THE PROJECT HANGING FOR YEARS AND WON'T ADD ANY ADDITIONAL LIBRARIES OR ANYTHING IMPORTANT AS THEY HAVE DONE WITH THEIR OTHER APP, JUST GO AHEAD AND USE OTHER APPS THAT OFFER MORE FREEDOM THAN THESE CHILDISH APPS FROM SKETCHWARE
I wish Sketchware for Android would be updated, or made open source.
Can't just edit code using text, the most basic feature is missing.
nice, keep going for this. But put the tutorial how to use blocks in Sketchware
Please add more boards support mainly NodeMCU ESP8266 V3. I'm waiting for new updates with support of this MCU Board.
It Will be Better. Update Sketchware....... Per month with new features.
Better app but nothing to added libraries I request developers to add library function.
Could not get to work with mega 2560 ch340 samsung s9
great work please add more block in Sketchware Android
very good app,i recommend that you should use this app for Arduino programming
Make an option to draft or map virtually for those who dont have any boards supported
THIS IS SO COOL! But please add Arduino Nano
Sketchware For android needs an update.
This app is very limited needs motor operation and servo
Dont mind the stars im just not that satisfied for now. I hope on future updates that the libraries that will be added on the code could have its own block automatically. and the examples are really less than what i expected. hope they got examples not only LED but for LCDs, Stepper motor I2Cs, I2C libraries, actually all of them. ESC, Potentiometer, Serial etc. etc. But overall for now its great and its easy. Hope those request can be added someday thank you :)
