- Tkinter and pygame now available.
- Examples available out-of-the-box.
- Built-in C, C++ and even Fortran compiler designed by n0n3m4, an author of C4droid, specially for Pydroid. It lets Pydroid build any library from pip, even if it is using native code. You can also build & install dependencies from a command line.

- PDB debugger with breakpoints and watches.
- Kivy graphical library with a shiny new SDL2 backend.
