HanDBase Database Manager

He usado la aplicación por más de 10 años desafortunadamente la versión cuatro lleva más de siete años y no le han hecho ninguna mejora significativa. También la aplicación de escritorio es obsoleta. A pesar de lo anterior la aplicación es buena.

Las formas no funcionan. Se diseñan y desaparecen al poco tiempo.

El mejor programa de base de datos.

I really loved this app, it was a great way to create secure databases of whatever I needed. But I also need to be able to update those databases and add new information, and now whenever you try to update an existing record, the app crashes and the info does not get saved. I emailed the company, but they couldn’t even be bothered to respond.

This has always been, and still is the very best database program out there. It has a long history and hopefully a long future because many users still rely on it!!!

There are plenty of db apps but I not found anything to match. Easy to create personal db. Easy to make and edit entries. Easy to design data entry screens. I’ve tried to find competitors that are available in both iOS and Windows, web or client based. Nothing as straightforward and functional as this. I love that the software is client-based, though, not web-based. I use gigabit internet day and night for work and home, but I only loose with a browser-based app.

This has always been, and still is the very best database program out there. We hope it has a long future because we still rely on it!!!

This app worked OK until I had more than approx 50 records in a db. Each db is pretty simple, an artist’s painting db, each record with minimal fields. When it approached 50 records it constantly crashes upon data entry, doesn’t save the data, and/or refuses to even open. I can’t even scroll through the records without it crashing. Bought the desktop app thinking at least I can still be productive if the phone app is crap. Nope, the desktop app is equally crap. Doesn’t do me much good to sync if it doesn’t carry over the actual photos of the paintings. A complete waste of money. Tried emailing the developer more than once and have never received a response. Bad coding, bad apps, and bad customer service. Tracking via Pages or Numbers would be more productive, more efficient, and less infuriating than using this abomination of an app.

I have been using this app on an iPhone, without making backups of the files -- not a good idea. I finally discovered how to backup HanDBase files to the iCloud: 1. tap on the three dots to the right of the file name. 2. tap on "Open in" 3. select (tap on) "HanDBase file" 4. scroll down to "save to files" 5. tap on "save to files" 6. the file name and destination are automatically selected; you can change them by tapping and editing. If needed, new folders can be added by tapping on the "+folder" icon.

Now that I have several databases with 500 records this app crashes every few minutes while using. I have paid for the app so it’s disappointing that requests for support go unanswered. If you have a serious use for this program I would avoid it.
