Not good for importing from FileMaker files. Seems far more limited than FM. Can't create a DB from folder of photos, e.g.

I have just downloaded this app and find it to be actually more useful than Bento was.

Maybe a lot of work by developer, but still not worth the money. Simply much to few possibilities for the user. Databases are not easy, we know. But that application is not a improvement. A pitty.

Pretty frustrating dealing with this app. I cannot modify themes, you are stuck with what is listed. I also cannot add/modify fields within canvas (i.e., I want to change a field’s title) - but Records won't let me. I can't even create a whole new field. And I can't modify a pop-down menu that I have placed within a canvas to show the list of choices within that menu. So limiting. The dev doesn't respond to requests for support. I honestly cannot recommend this to anyone.

If I could figure out how to use it, I would be able to give it a real rating. But there are no instructions and the developer did not respond when I reached out for help.

Poorly designed instructions on how to utilize this APP. Sent an email to the developer with no answer. Disappointed!!! I am still waiting for them to get back to me.. I am using OS X 10.12.6 and trying to load all my FileMaker Pro data into their database via CVS import with terrible results.

Don't know about the app. Haven't had a chance to try it yet. But not impressed wth the marketing. I responded to an email from MacUpdate offering the app for $6.49 (US). I have now been billed by MacUpdate for that $6.99, and also by Paddle.com for another $12.99 (US). Not a good way t win friends!

"Now requires macOS 10.12.2 or later" Unfortunately my iMac can only run up to macOS 10.11.6. I purchased this app a few weeks ago in anticipation of future updates. Looks like I will not be able to take part of any new features until I buy a new computer ... :-(

Not a lot of use without the manual (which you'd fairly assume to be included...but still searching)!

Can't leave a review since I haven't got a clue how to use it. I 've figured some stuff out, but it's pretty useless to me. I've used MS Access and MySQL and I find them easier.

The one item that comes to mind is the 'List' button. I created a list....added some items successfully, but the default button doesn't seem to work. I selected the item and tried to hit default, but the default button doesn't become active. Would be wonderful if there was a PDF manual or a tutorial for starting out, but couldn't find one.

Worth the money paid as have been looking for OS X version of a database program but has a few shortcomings or quirks that I cannot seem to get answers to. I sent questions to developer but no replies yet. Easiest to paste my questions and you can read shortcomings. I downloaded your trial and spent 3 hours creating a database and want to be sure I do not lose the file I have currently created. It seems I keep moving the fields around in the forms that I am working on by mistake. I want to be able to revert back to where I once was. I tried saving copies of file as well as template, but when try to open new database and try to import saved file to test that it is saved, it fails. I went ahead and purchased program through the macupdate promo thinking that that feature may age disabled in the trial and still no success. 1) How do I save a backup file that I can revert to if I screw up the one I am using? 2) can I import the backup as an additional copy? original name “test" as "test 2” for instance 3) can I set to print multiple records, say record 10 through 15? 4) currently when I print canvas view I must do one at a time and set to print page 1 only of 3 pages although pages 2 and 3 are blank. It appears that it prints below where I have form data as I added a dummy box to right and below on screen and it prints the one below on page 2, and ironically one to right does not show up. 5) any way to show grid lines when creating form to make it easier to line up several text boxes for instance? 6) I wish for numbers to go to three digits past decimal and not automatically drop the zeros. (1.230 as opposed to 1.23) 7) Is there any sort of manual or user guide or how to videos available? 8) can I print entire spreadsheet? It only wants to print first few columns Any help would be appreciated. In short, I really wish could create form with gridlines in view to aid in lining up fields. I wish I could save template to use over and over on different databases. I wish I could set form to print on one page rather than one and kick out two blank pages. I wish I could print spreadsheet view of all data rather than just top left corner. Most of all, I wish there were some kind of instructions or help files. A close second would be able to import selected data without retyping (Assume one file with all 50 US state names but want to make form with dropdown to choose only southern states, another with northern states, etc. Exporting as csv, editing and trying to import seems to fail. May be a way but with no instructions whatsoever I must retype every one.

Software for 'the price is of a latte'. I won't expect too much. Sure it's cheap but very limited especially in the absence of instructions on how it is to be used and how it fits the 'relational' model which is the current approach to data storage.

Nice app. However, I would like to know: 1. What column in the spreadsheet view is being sorted upon; 2. How to designate the column to be sorted upon; 3. I would like the ability to do time math: Subtract the value in one time & date field from another time & date time field to get the duration between the values in the two fields. Please provide the answer to 1. & 2.

I like the concept, and use it to collect unstructured information for analysis purposes. Negatives: The software is unstable, it has crashed a number of times already - although the data seems to be intact after a retart. Printing leaves thigs to be desired. I have not been able to print a whole database, only single fields or single pages. An option that fits a database record onto one printed page would be great.
