## General DB Description
General DB is a general-purpose database app that lets you record information quickly and easily.

Try our FREE Private DB app to get a feel for General DB before you buy.

For example, if you have a bottle collection, you could make a table with these fields: Date Acquired, Bottle Type, Bottle Origin, Shape, Notes. Then whenever you add a new bottle to your collection, you can add a row to the table describing it.

If you want to track visits to different vacation sites, you can make a table with fields for the Date Visited, Location, Description, and Attraction. As you visit the sites, you can add corresponding rows to your table.

After you add rows to your tables, they will be:
* Searchable 
* Sortable 
* Selectable 

Many apps are too specific to a subject, but General DB is flexible enough to handle many, many needs, such as: 
- Inventories
- Customer info 
- Membership lists
- Tracking Logs
- Accounts 
- and many more ! 

No database knowledge is required to use this app, but you will pick some up as you go! 

For power users:

General DB allows easy data entry into a full-fledged SQLite database. To do so, it enhances it with field formats.

The field formats supported are Text, Number, Date, Time, Duration, Location, Photo, Barcode, Raw, Picker, and Lookup Table.  There are convenient buttons next to some fields for easier input.

For administrators or IT manager, you can create a master database of reference information that you don&#039;t want your users to modify. This master database can be published on the internet and either the Private DB app or General DB can download and view it.

Some more powerful features:
- Download files from the web or Dropbox
- Import text files into tables
- Execute SQL files
- Extract .zip or .gz files
- Manage your image files and create thumbnails
- Preview all the lines in a file before importing it
- Custom picker types to select values from a list
- Add your own image files from you computer using iTunes
- SQL Console for executing SQL statements
- Mark SQL statements as favorites
- See and execute past SQL statements in the History
- Built-in web browser to download files from
- Save websites in the Bookmarks
- Easily create a SQL VIEW (subsets of fields from a table)
- JOIN 2 or more tables or views for relational capabilities
- Export selected rows from your tables to a file
- Email your files to others
- Share your database via Email or Dropbox
- Create databases
- And much more!

## General DB Reviews in United States

### ***** "Just awesome!"
I find this app to be perfect.  Very easy to use, handy, helpful, powerful and long overdue.  Wish I had found this years ago.  Love it!
-- EricNSacramento, 2022-04-01

### ***** "Support"
I added GeneralDB to my iPadPro and could not make it operate even though I’ve been using this app on my iPhone for years.

Once I contacted Tom for a little support, I got a bunch of support; almost instantly. The problem was solved by that afternoon, and a reset of my iPad got me back into the app. +1 for support of this useful tool.
-- TexasClodhopper, 2021-06-16

### ***** "Using this to collect field data on an ipad"
success!
-- really, another screen name?, 2020-01-25

### ****- "thanks for an SQLite DB mgr; on iOS 13 howto ..."
How do I turn on ‘dark mode’ for General DB to take advantage of this new iOS feature?
-- mmcx, 2019-09-29

### ***** "Awesome App"
This app is awesome. The current version resolved a memory leak issue causing import problems with very large files. Customer service has been fantastic! Quick responses and follow ups. Also willing to spend the time in helping me with the import issue.

This app allows me to carry large amounts of data that I can easily access. In app searches are very quick.
-- Steve in Casper, 2016-07-18

### ***** "Great App"
I have a pretty large database with 8 tables and 10k+ rows - this runs great on  my iPad and iPhone 6 sharing with Dropbox.
The only thing missing for me is the ability to have the &#039;picker types&#039; dynamic, For example being able to define a field as a lookup in a related table rather than a static list of picker values.  - UPDATE:  I found out that the picker values ARE actually stored as hidden tables (view in settings).  Now I can use triggers to update these picker values dynamically based on other tables.  Very cool - can almost build a complete application now.  Simple Form capability would make this app complete for me.
Keep up the good work
-- DaveiPhone, 2015-03-27

### ***** "As Advertised"
Solid app that does what it’s advertised to do. Here are the features I like about General DB:
- Despite being a mobile app, it is powerful with a query interface and a SQLite console.
- The database easily handles large data tables with many records.  In contrast, another popular database app I have groans with large data tables.
- The corresponding OS-X app makes it handy to share data files with my iMac.  This can be done through iTunes or through Dropbox. To share With Dropbox, you must have the free Dropbox app on your mobile device — I learned the hard way.
- Tech support through email is responsive and friendly.
I hope General DB’s developers continue to refine the app.  I would like to see more varieties of field types such as integer, decimal, and boolean.
-- Hey FAC, 2014-12-24

### ***** "I love it!!"
Good app! But I need &quot;Open in&quot; Please!!
-- Wa11s, 2014-05-27

### ***** "Great UI and a Great Import Capability"
Works with CSV files using either single quote marks or double quotes.  Imports xlsx.  Very powerful SQL implementation.  I am very happy with this app so far!
-- Smarrt Mike, 2013-09-24

### ***** "May be basic, but it&#039;s great!"
I wanted a simple database that kept track of the books I&#039;ve read - the titles, the authors, the dates, and a synopsis. The fact that it is searchable, and modifiable, is a real bonus. Of course, I could&#039;ve  added many more fields if I needed. This is definitely worth the $2.99 upgrade. Thanks for developing this.
