I am very beginner at python. I am using Jupyter Notebook through Pydroid 3. I am using firefox as my android brower.
My issue is that Jupyter Notebook randomly becomes glitchy such that it randomly repeats/duplicates the same text while typing the code. Also, once it starts duplicating the backspace button won’t work properly to delete thr duplicated text, it will further add more text and delete radomly. This issues persisted even when I triesld different browsers on my android.
I have used Jupyter in 2022 on the same phone and never had this issue, I have deleted the app in 2023 and just recently reinstalled. I tried deleting the data/cache and reinstalling pydroid ans jupyter but without any luck.
Here is an example, as soon as I hit the letter ‘t’ at the end of the word ‘randomint’ it automatically added a 2nd “randin=randint”
The JupyterLab 4.2/Notebook 7.2 will come with upgraded editor version which solved a number ofissues related to typing in mobile devices. Hopefully this will ultimately resolve the problem for you, though I had no means of testing it.
I re-installed pydroid 3 and installed Jupyter library from there, assuming it would fetch the latest Jupyter Notebook. The typing duplication error is still there unfortunately.
February 2025 issue persists on Chrome Android 14. I noticed this both in colab google and in workspaces, so clearly an issue with jupyter notebooks themselves.
I have switched off all suggestions and it still does it… no idea what is the pattern
Can you be more specific about what ‘workspaces’ you are referring to?
Last I was aware Google Colab bears little similarity to modern Jupyter ‘infrastructure’, and so extrapolating to Jupyter may be unwarranted without checking, unless ‘workspaces’ uses current things.
For checking with current Jupyter:
See here for what I think the latest announcement of the project.
If you click the first link there on that announcement that says ’ JupyterLab 4.3.’ and go to the JupyterLab repo page you’ll see a ‘launch binder’ badge that will bring up a session with JupyterLab 4.3.5 at present. You can try that there and see. (Or just click here to launch such a session directly.)
Similarly, if you follow the second link there to the Jupyter Notebook repo page, there is a ‘launch binder’ badge there that will give you a session with Jupyter Notebook version 7.4.0a3 at present. (Alternatively, click here to directly launch such a session with current Jupyter Notebook coming up upon launch.)
