Leave a Review Tap Forms Organizer 5 Database
Excellent
After losing Bento I could not find a simple database program that worked for me. I ended up paying the HUGE price for filemaker. That is a good program but never really intended for the simple needs of an average home user. It was difficult to learn and did not just synch with my ipad in the background. Tap Forms has been very good. I have had problems with errors with cloudant but it synched instantaneously between my computer and Ipad. I plan to set up ICloud synch soon. I had a few other questions that I emailed support about and received VERY QUICK responses each time. I am extremely happy with this program/App. Well worth the price.Show lessSswitenki
Top Notch App
I have been using TapForms for approx 4 years now for my contracting business, We rely on the TF app daily. There have been hiccups along the way, however developer Brenan worked hard to create this top notch, simple to use, reliable, full of feature database. We use it to track aprox 50 ongoing jobs at one time. Program easily syncs to all computers w/o a hitch. Syncing is done quickly in the background. Reliable and quick. Support is very good. Developer responds usually within 24 hours, and most times sooner. This app is worth way more than it sells for. The iphone layout could be better, however overall package Excellent.Show lessDeniseConractor
App not letting me add a new field
Update3: Guess if I don't write here, I don't get a response. Nope, the save button doesn't completely resolve the issue. Plus if the save button is so important, it should replace the copy icon. Poor design logic.
Update2: I start with no documents at all. So first I create a document. Second I press Add Form and a form is created and opens the area where fields can be added. Third the first field that I add is a Date field. No problems so far. Fourth I add another field, say set it as a Note field. When it goes back to the area to add fields, only the Date field is showing. The Note field is not shown. So I close the app and open it up and still only the Date field is showing. So I close the app, double-press the home button, flip up the app screen to completely close it, and then open up the app again. Finally, the Note field is visible.
Very frustrating to create a form.
Update: The field is added, but one has to close the app completely (including closing the app by double-tapping the home button) and then reopen the app to see the added field. What a joke!
Just downloaded the app and the app is not letting me add a new field. No idea what that double rectangle icon is supposed to do but it does nothing when pressed. Will try to get a refund if issue is not solved. So far, waste of time.Show lesshawaiian808808
Developer Response
Update: Don't forget to tap the Save button on the field name screen, otherwise the field won't get saved. Perhaps that's your problem. Also please email me so we can continue this offline. That's not normal behaviour. I've just been testing this out and is something I do every day. So far so good. Please contact me at support@tapforms.com so I can assist you further in figuring out why this is happening. Does it happen with new forms or with existing forms you want to add a new field to? Do you see the new field on the Fields list in the form? Or is it when you go to add a record to your form that it's not showing?Best database for iOS
I have been a long time user. I was a bento refugee looking for a new program when I found tapforms. I loved this program and put everything in it.
Then came the last big update. I was a bit confused by the new setup and hit several glitches ad wasn't able to import my data correctly I was disappointed. I went back to my old tap forms and left the new one to bake for awhile longer. True to form the developer cleaned up the bugs and had things running smoothly in short order. He is very responsive to customers.
In short. It works great now and I'm glad to see iCloud sync back. Was not a fan of the ibm sync system.Show lessMark in Mass
