## Most critical reviews (7 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Disappointing for individual users

*2023-07-20*

I have been using FileMaker constantly for over 20 years at work and at home as single user (no collaborations and no need for others to access my databases/apps). What is shameful is how Claris/Apple crippled the mobile app so it cannot access file on iCloud Drive (or sync with iCloud). There is no reason whatsoever for this. I can understand that business users must use their cloud service or severer, but not individual users like myself. I know the iPhone and iPad mobile apps are quite capable of opening databases created on the Mac, and I have managed to do that in prior versions (probably an unintentional bug). I really don’t understand why Apple/Claris deliberately choose to irritate their most loyal customers. There other database apps, some very new, that sync with iCloud and work on all Apple devices, but nothing matches the power, ease of use, and stability of FileMaker.

### 2/5 — User beware!

*2025-05-06*

The iOS 18.4 update seems to have crippled this app. It opens and immediately crashes. I suggest moving up to FMG 2024 or down to FMG 19. Both of those versions appear stable.

### 2/5 — Troppi bug

*2023-07-21*

Applicazione fondamentale per me. Creo app e le portò con me ovunque. La versione per iOS ha però molti bug…grafica che scompare, url che non funzionano, documenti che non si archiviano…il problema che sono anni che non li risolvono.

### 5/5 — Best rapid development

*2025-07-08*

This app is extremely powerful and free for iOS. Strongly recommend!

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2024-03-01*

Thank you for enabling Vision Pro! 🤩

### 5/5 — Great update

*2023-10-12*

There is some great stuff in this new version that will make layout design more powerful. I’ve been using this app for years and continue to be impressed at the stability and utility.

### 5/5 — Super powerful

*2023-04-29, version 20.1.1*

Best it works stand alone. Or shared. You can create a custom database solution with the free trial on your desktop and then download to your iOS device and have your own app.
