Where you have it is the place to ask.

The tablet runs on Android
The Arduino IDE runs on Windows, IOS and Linux

Can you see a problem ?

There is, however, an online IDE that runs in a browser

Yes, seems obvious, but when purchasing the device I was told it would run office suite software for Windows. I’m unfamiliar with Samsung tablets. Read forum posts here said yes I could but might have to save to sd.

This download states it is only compatible with older Samsung tablets... mine is an A8.
