You can’t use it at all unless you subscribe to a “Free 7-day trial” of the pro (paid) version. The old “hope you forgot you subscribed” ploy. Nasty! ### 3/5 — Can add export with XLSX *2024-05-22* Because there are Chinese characters in the export result, otherwise it will be garbled ### 2/5 — Still lots of room for improvements *2023-08-09* I consider the price of the APP to be okay for a solid MYSQL client, but that is the problem. It lacks most of the functions you expect for this price. You are better off with phpmyadmin on a vps, and it would be cheaper with more features. ### 2/5 — MySQLCRY *2023-04-23* La aplicación es fantástica, pero al ver el precio la tuve que desinstalar ;( ### 2/5 — Prix abusif *2020-11-25* Bonjour, J’ai essayé plein d’apps mysql et celle-ci correspondrait parfaitement à mes attentes cependant payer un abonnement pour débloquer les fonctions « pro » (qui sont finalement essentiel à l’utilisation d’un requêteur SQL) est absurde. Parallèlement sans prendre d’abonnement dépenser 110€ cash pour une appli est exorbitant 😱. Svp revoyez vos prix .... Merci d’avance. ### 1/5 — Can’t see query result on free version *2020-10-06, version 2020.37* Why bother making this app free if I can’t see the query results on the free version of the app? ### 1/5 — Un gestor de mysql 170€? *2020-06-10* La aplicación está completamente bloqueada, quise ver el precio para desbloquear y me encontré con unos precios de locos, o te suscribes con 60€ anuales y a pagar de por vida, o desbloqueas con pago único de 170€! Es de locos!! Sale más económico contratar una máquina virtual Linux y acceder desde el iPad en remoto. ### 3/5 — Error *2020-05-02* Failed to connect. Plugin sha256_password could not be loaded: dlopen(/usr/local/MySQL/lib/plugin/sha256_password.so, 0x002):dlopen(): file not found: /usr/local/mysql/lib/plugin/sha256_password.so (error #2059) Some DB open it correct. ### 1/5 — Rip off *2020-03-28, version 2019.52* Cant do ought ### 3/5 — An example of really poor iOS design *2020-02-19, version 2019.52* Very little about this interface is consistent or resembles anything like iOS. The buttons and menus and icons all mean random things and appear in random places. It’s very disorienting. ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-02-05, version 2019.52* If your free app is useless, don’t make it free, not being able to see the results of a query is an insult for those who are trying it. At least make a temporal window for usage or something ### 3/5 — 价格不合适 *2019-11-09* 一年四百💰的价格显然不适合中国国情，打一折比较合适，感觉如果打一折，销量不止翻十倍。 ### 1/5 — 109 euros ?? *2019-09-24* The prince is incredible... and y cant open BDD from my iPad. (Sorry for my english) ### 2/5 — Password field can’t be empty *2019-08-05* Why DB password field can’t be empty? My database don’t have password for root user, and I can’t connect to it with your app. **Developer response:** Thanks for the note - I've added the ability to store an empty password. If you get the chance, please give it a try and let me know if that sorts things out for you. ### 1/5 — 一星鼓励 *2019-05-15* 一星鼓励 **Developer response:** Hi. Is there anything I can help sort out? ### 1/5 — Payant *2019-04-10* Limite à 13 entre **Developer response:** Sorry, I'm not sure what the issue is? If I can help with anything, please let me know. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rug pulled with their pricing model *2023-12-08, version 2023.33* I paid for a lifetime subscription a few years back, but they changed their pricing model out of the blue and I had to start paying monthly/annually. Did that for a while, until recently. Hard to justify paying so much for a MySQL app.. ### 1/5 — Funktionalität ganz okay aber ... *2023-08-19* ... 180€ für den Zugriff ohne Abo auf die MySQL Daten? Was ist denn das für ein Preis? ### 1/5 — Erstellen von Tabellen nicht wirklich möglich. *2023-03-19* Ein Auto-Increment zu verwenden ist nicht möglich – lediglich default Werte Vielleicht via query – aber in Angesicht dessen nicht wirklich im Kosten/Nutzen Verhältnis. Das einzige positive ist, dass der benötige in App Kauf eine Probe-Abo Variante hat. Ansonsten wäre sehr schnell Geld weg. ### 1/5 — Фишинг *2022-08-10* Собирает данные логин, пароль от вашей БД. Отправляет данные на сервер с левым IP. ### 1/5 — Otro engaño *2022-01-23* Si es de pago, ¿por qué la ponéis como si fuera gratuita? Un engaño para que la gente la descargue y falsear estadísticas. ### 1/5 — Говнина *2021-11-22* Если не собираетесь платить, вообще не качайте - бесплатной версии тут фактически нет никакой ### 1/5 — Useless without payment. Not free. *2021-10-23, version 2021.80* Has zero functionality without paying $60/yr. should not be listed with free apps. ### 1/5 — False advertising; should be categorized as non-free app *2021-10-13, version 2021.80* Whether or not the description in the app store indicates that a purchase is required to see the results set, this app is clearly NOT free and such a statement is unethical and deceptive, at best. Falsely stating that the app is "free" causes the app to be shown when a search for free apps is made. It is free to the same degree that a solitaire game app that displays the cards, but, for a small fee, allows the player to actually move them, is free. It fails essentially of its purpose as a free app. It is useless unless a purchase is made. Therefore, it is a payment-required app and advertising it as anything else is a lie. ### 1/5 — What happened??? *2021-10-09, version 2021.80* 2 months ago this product was rock solid. Now, i get a spam asking me to buy a year subscription every time i open it (even though I already pay monthly). And now, when I try to open an SSH connection, the app just closes. Ugh. ### 1/5 — From a developer response *2021-07-06, version 2021.40* The app requires a purchase to view and interact. So it is useless without an expensive payment. $59.00 it prompted me. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Mein Entwicklungsworkflow funktioniert nun auch von Untewegs *2023-04-25* Die Mac-Version hat mich schon sehr begeistert. Sie kann alles, was ich im täglichen Umgang mit einer Datenbank brauche. Mehrere DB-Verbindungen gleichzeitig, Procedures und Functions und auch Daten einsehen und bearbeiten. Hier steht die iPad-Version ihrem Vorbild in nichts nach. Jetzt kann ich endlich auch von Unterwegs ohne großen Aufwand am iPad alle anfallenden Aufgaben erledigen. Vielen Dank für dieses hilfreiche Werkzeug! ### 5/5 — Дорого *2021-05-22* Для меня iPad является далеко не основным инструментом работы, что бы выкладывать такую сумму, да и за десктопный инструмент такого рода считаю возможным платить, когда инструментарий близок к Navicat. Само приложение приглянулось. ### 5/5 — Great app ! Great service *2020-11-26* This app does exactly what it needs to. I can connect to my databases, query them, insert, update, delete directly from my phone. I’ve looked for an app like this for a long time! Also the customer support was great. I had trouble connecting to a MySQL 8 DB so I reached out on twitter and they provided a new version with a fix within a day! 5 stars ### 5/5 — Request Chinese version *2020-09-11* Request Chinese version ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-01-30* Great app with a beautiful GUI and even awesome support. I had an issue with ssh login and it was fixed in hours. Works like a charm with iPad + keyboard. ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2018-12-02, version 1.0.118* Was super happy to see this in the App Store and once SSH tunneling via private key was added it’s made being able to leave my laptop home and just carry my iPad on short trips finally a reality. Developer is super responsive and quick to fix and add features. Follows iPad best practices including keyboard shortcuts and split screen. Super excited to see this mature further. This is the one to beat! ### 5/5 — 订阅了也无法使用 *2018-09-08* 本来用的挺好的，订阅了，43元，钱扣了，一直显示连接苹果商店失败，也restore不了，现在处于不能用的状态，太失败了！ ### 5/5 — 非常好用 而且免费 *2018-08-25* 真的很好用，跟电脑端的一些数据库软件一样，界面很简洁，最重要的是还免费，良心APP。 ### 5/5 — Great app, couple of suggestions... *2018-07-16, version 1.0.53* I like this app. Thank you for developing it. The 2 suggestions I have are: - SSH keys (new server requires them, so I’m In a bind). - A refresh icon or something on the messages tab to re-run the query and refresh, rather than having to go back to the editor again and click run (unless I’m missing something). Thank you ### 5/5 — Really Useful! *2018-05-17, version 1.0.50* I’m so happy I found this app. I use Panic’s Coda and Prompt for doing quick website updates while on the go, and I’ve always been frustrated that updating anything in my databases required typing out the queries by hand. This makes it so much easier, and even more surprising it’s actually well designed and pleasant to use. Worth trying out since it’s free, and I’ll bet you’ll spring for the annual subscription as well. The developer also seems very active and responsive to requests. I had a feature request that I really needed for the app to be useful to me, so I reached out to him on Twitter. And he updated the app with the feature just a few days later. Great customer support! Thanks for a great app! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
