Scratch 2 was written for Adobe Flash, and is independent of any particular operating system. The “Load Project” and “Save Project” buttons use Flash to open the system's file open/save dialogs, which may or may not work, but has nothing to do with whether or not your using Windows.

Unofficial - Scratch 2.0 Compiled For Mobile - Download Now! (iOS and Android)

For those of you asking for Scratch to be made for iOS and Android, look no further! I've started to get it working for both Android and iOS. Simply download the free APK or iPA and install it on your device (installation instructions below). Now you can finally enjoy Scratch wherever you are Since this is just a concept idea, some things may not work as expected. This does not reflect the PC version of Scratch 2.0 in any way.

Download
Android
iOS

I'm also working on a version that allows you to pinch to zoom and pan. It's quite buggy, but if you'd like to see what it's like so far, you can download it from the link below
https://github.com/elfin8er/Scratch-Mobile/releases/tag/v1.0.0_z

Installation Instructions

iOS (Must be jailbroken)
1. Download Scratch.iPA from the link above.
2. Install AppSync on your device via Cydia
3. Be sure you have iTunes downloaded on your computer.
4. Double click on the iPA file and install it onto your iOS device.

Android
1. Download Scratch.apk from the link above.
2. Transfer the APK to your device.
3. Allow your device to install apps from unknown locations (different for some devices)
4. Install the APK using your favorite file manager.
(coming to the app store soon (hopefully))

Screenshots



Notes
If anybody would like to make icons for these apps, feel free! I need some icons of different sizes. 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 128x128. High-res please

The app may not look very good on higher-res Android devices. This may be able to be solved easily, or it may require parts of Scratch to be rewritten, I'm not sure.

Both apps are a little bit buggy, but it'll hopefully let you at least get some concepts started. For an example, I don't believe saving and loading projects work on either device. Still experimenting on other Android and iOS devices though…

For those of you who have a jailbroken iOS device, I'll hopefully upload the iPA to Cydia so you can more easily install the app directly on your device. As for Android, if I can get permission from the Scratch team, I'll upload it to the app store (I already have a developer license). Though, it is open source so permission may not be needed…

Until I can find someone with a developer license, the ipa will remained un-signed and only install-able on a jailbroken device with AppSync installed.
Can you fix that zoom version please?

Scratch was originally a program known as BYOB, written for windows. Scratch 2's code is based on Scratch 1.4, and by Extension, BYOB.

That is incorrect.
Scratch 0-1.4 was written in Squeak Smalltalk and is its own original thing. BYOB is a mod of Scratch 1.x, and not an official version. Scratch 2.0 is an entire rewrite in Flash, and there is no code from 1.x.

I wish the app would come out soon. Is it just a lie? a rumor? because I am confused. There is a Scratch Tutorial video app that only has videos, however it doesn't allow you to share projects.

This is an unofficial app. See the first post to learn how to get it, but it doesn't really work and will probably never be updated.
The tutorial app is unrelated to this. This is the actual editor.

Uhm, why will it have access to “take pictures and videos”
“record audio”
“modify or delete the contents of your SD card”
“read the contents of your SD card”
“full network access”
…I'm not completing the download until I get a good answer.

Scratch can take pictures and record sound. Also, it can read and save files (but this app can't). Just look at the online editor.
I hope this helps. Howevr, keep in mind that this app is abandoned and does not work properly.

Is there an official app coming out? I don’t feel safe downloading something that isn’t the official application

This is the closest you will get to an official app. Scratch 3.0 might change that, though.

There is an app on the play store called Scratch XBOT which uses adobe air. It works pretty decently.

Including most of the Scratch assets is against Scratch's terms.
Oh.
