Perfect for Watch Collection

Chris . Blue on

I was looking for something simple to keep track of my collection, other specialist apps are overly complicated. Immediately purchased for £6.99 to thank the developer, although the free version did everything I wanted.

A rare gem

borisyurkevich on

Just saw an ad on MacStories Shocked this is not a subscription, instant buy. For this price it's a steal. My advise, raise the price, I would pay £20.

WOW! Just what I was looking for.

Took me a couple of hours to get my head around how this app worked best, as I found the help documentation very basic. But once I was up to speed I found it incredibly organised and logical for creating a new way to catalog my movie collection, on both physical and digital media. Sure, there are apps out there that scan barcodes and populate (too much) information for you, but they all seemed to have overpriced subscription plans too. I've been able to create something very bespoke to my needs that looks smart, simple and intuitive. And with the URL features I can also have direct links to digital versions of my movies whether online or on my home Plex server. This app now helps me keep track of all the movies I own, on 6 different physical formats spread over 4 locations, plus 3 digital services. And syncs between iPhone, iPad and Mac with ease. Looking forward to cataloging more things now. Highly recommended if you're willing to put in the time.

Brilliant database for the money

Peb.B on

I don’t write reviews generally but this database is so good I had to say so. So far it has done exactly what I asked it to do (and more) without the slightest hitch. I wasted no time in upgrading to the paid version which frankly at £6.99 was no great hardship. Keep up the good work.

Simply Outstanding - The best on iPadOS/iOS

 Customer_952 on

Really, there’s not much more to say. It literally is the closest you’ll come to a brilliant DB experience. This has a view option letting you see the DB ‘zoomed out’. I know most people who take DB seriously are going to be doing it on a desktop or MacBook. That’s cool. But, if you need something to work on the ‘go’, this’s ‘THE ONLY’ Dedicated Database App! Highly Great. Highly VFM. Highly recommend!

Absolute gem!

CJGIOM on

This app achieves something very difficult in that it provides a simple and efficient platform for creating quite sophisticated relational databases. Whilst I have not yet pushed the limits on data volumes my initial impression as someone who has worked in the industry for the last 30 years is that this is a very slick and well executed app. I am genuinely impressed and wish the developer great success with this venture!

Great Database App for iPhone

NhojSCC on

Nice app for personal use with more functionality than most people will need. I've used it for a week now and I'm impressed. It's quite intuitive but the manual could be a bit more comprehensive. A companion app for Windows would be really useful for those who don't use a mac.

Stunning

Greg118118 on

I’m using this main for my nature logs (birds and insects). I keep a structured collection of locations and British Birds and then collate my sightings into a main collection. From here I can review birds by sites I’ve visited, or sites I’ve visited showing which birds and insects were previously have been seen and many more variations. And it is all synchronised across my iPhone, iPad and iMac. Okay, would love to have the GPS with less precision so I could create transects and a few other things in reporting. However, this is the best database for Apple devices at the moment and is simple enough to be accessible and feature rich enough to be useful. Great work 👍👍👍

Superb app

drxuxu on

This app is like an Apple-native Notion, just without all the privacy issues, speed / loading issues or overly complex and fiddly view options. It works just as well on mobile and desktop. It has great Shortcuts integration and surprisingly powerful relational capabilities. If you don’t need collaboration and just want to focus on organising your data, this app is superb. I hope the developer adds the ability to get links to individual documents (like in Bear, Things 3, etc). I’d love to be able to open documents directly from other apps.
