5.8

June 13, 2020

Hide tables and views in the List of Tables. This helps when working with databases that have a lot of tables and views, some of which you rarely use. It can also be useful if you are distributing your databases to others, who do not need to see all the tables. To hide a table or view, go to the List of Files, tap your database file, then tap the table or view you wish to hide and tap the "Hide" button. To un-hide it, do the same thing but tap the "Show" button. To temporarily display the hidden tables and views in the List of Tables, long-press the info button in the toolbar below the List of Tables. Make any field an expanded field, not just fields with Text format. The expanded fields will be concatenated together in the Expanded Fields Section of the Row Display. Go to the table settings of a table to select the expanded fields. Hide the first section in the Row Display. The first section normally displays the field name and the first line of each field. If you hide it, and select some fields to be displayed in the Expanded Fields Section, all the lines of the selected fields can be displayed. This makes for easier browsing through the rows. Go to the table settings of a table to hide the first section in the Row Display. The Expanded Fields Section now is sized better when multiple fields are expanded. The SQL Console now has a "Functions" button that presents a window showing all the functions available in the app. Tap the function to see its description if it has one. There is a Long-Presses section in the Help in the app info, describing the long-press shortcuts in the app. The release date of the SQLite library used in the app is shown in the Diagnostics in the app info. SQLite 3.32.2 Bug fixes. NOTE: This is a major release. If you have critical databases, you MUST back them up before updating your software. To back them up, share them with your computer using AirDrop, or upload them to iCloud or Dropbox.

Even though this is a minor release, it is prudent to back up your critical databases and files before updating the app. To back them up, either use Dropbox or iCloud, or sync them with your computer.

Reviews of Private DB

Limited Usecases

Would be nice, in addition to beng able to create a table from scratch (which seems to work fine), to be able to add rows with data.

Awesome and Full Featured App

Awesome app. Simply it just works! It’s also fully featured. I’m Python developer. When working with Pythonista I can easily create and manage my SQLite DB’s.
Thanks for an awesome app!

Response from developer

Thanks for the review wilderness family 78! Python is cool too!

Images can cause crashing

A reasonably laid out app that functions well enough on my iPad when displaying ‘basic’ tables from my SQLite databases.
However, it crashes every single time I touch a record in a table view that includes a jpg image file in a BLOB field.

Response from developer

Sorry about that Tutankhamen. By touching a record do you mean executing an UPDATE? Please contact us on our support page so we can correct the issue before the next release.
