App Inventor has a feature called Extensions that allows AI users with Java skills to create 
supplementary functions.  This feature is similar to what other programming languages call libraries.


Programming is in Java... you cannot use Python.  Extensions provide functionality that is not present in the basic compiler (which is intended primarily as a learning tool).   

You can run some Python scripts  using this work around:

You cannot, but.. you can create a server at home with a python program and access it via commands from android and retrieve the data output.
