3 Best C/C++ compilers on Android ; Available on Google Play

Are you a programming lover ? Okay, maybe or maybe not ! In either case sometimes one just needs to do some programming either as a college course or for some fun (if you like it). Here are some apps on Android which let you do C/C++ compiling and debugging on the go, right on your Android device.  

Play store links of apps are given below description of each.  Here's the list goes :

1. C4droid

C4droid is a quite popular and user-friendly C/C++ IDE and compiler for Android platform. You can write and run C and C++ programs directly on your phone. It is a paid app (costing around $3 and believe me it's worth it) and I personally consider it the best C/C++ IDE for Android. It is really great application for C/C++ programmers and recommended for beginners.

Features

• Create your own applications on android device and run them even without internet access
• Source code editor with syntax highlighting, tabs, code completion, code formatting, file association and undo/redo
• Easily run & export and share your programs as APKs or native executables (for terminal apps)
• No root access is required
• Full ANSI C and ISO C99 support with TCC (Tiny C Compiler) + uClibc
• Supports Git integration
• Customize the GUI, choose where to place tabs and buttons, various themes are also supported.
• Very light, requires no more than 50 MB of C plugins, can build SDL, Qt and NativeActivity applications.

2. CppDroid-C/C++ IDE

It is another FREE and simple (but not that simple) C/C++ IDE and compiler for android devices. It is focused on learning programming languages and libraries.

Features

• code complete, real-time diagnostics (warnings and errors) and fixes
• file and tutorial navigator (variables, methods, etc), static analysis
• smart syntax highlighting, auto indentation and auto pairing (configurable)
• compile and run C/C++ code (no root access required)
• works offline (no internet connection required), Dropbox support

Apart from this, it also provides so many tutorials, examples and projects that will help in learning C and C++ programming.

3. Mobile C (C/C++ compiler)

Yet another FREE and simple C/CPP compiler for Android and is definitely worth a try( if above two are not a good fit for you, this one is for you, it is a simple one and has less features and is completely FREE too).

Features

• C/C++ auto complete. 
• C/C++ syntax diagnostic.
• C/C++ jump to declaration/macro symbol/header.
• Built-in Terminal/Shell. 
• No internet connection is required to run code.
