### 1/5 — Can't add server on iPhone 4S 6.1.3

*2013-10-29*

I can't scroll down past the password field to add the database when trying to add the server...  Fail.

### 1/5 — Crashes when query submitted

*2013-05-13*

Was easy to setup and connect to the SQL server I was working with, but as soon as query was submitted it crashes.  Unusable as is.  I personally do not like an application that automatically changes the case of my keywords after I enter them and would prefer this application stopped doing that.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2021-06-10*

Can’t connect with the same credentials I can connect using other apps and sometimes when testing a connection the app crashes.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work.

*2019-06-16*

At a $9.99 price point, I would think the app would at least work. I can’t even configure a single connection. A refund would be nice.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2018-12-13*

Just crashes constantly, money grab with no actual function

### 1/5 — Wish I could get a refund

*2018-07-19*

It looks like a basic app that would be useful with all the right features. 

In reality it crashes quite a bit with no error.

The times that it does not crash, you see an error message like “Insufficient free memory on your device to complete this query.”. This error is a result of a simple query like “select count(*) from mytable” and that stupid table only has a few hundred entries. 

Very rarely it works fine but that is not enough to keep it installed and get frustrated.

### 1/5 — Unable to connect

*2017-06-19*

Is there any way I can get a refund? I am unable to connect to the database.

### 1/5 — Doesn't Connect to Azure and No Support

*2017-06-02*

The app doesn't work with SQL Azure and from the forums this has been an unsolved issue for some time.  There is no support on the developer forum with many unanswered questions.

Don't purchase if you want to use with Azure SQL.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2015-05-20*

Tried three databases across two different Windows Azure SQL servers and the app refuses to connect. Either pops up an error dialog or crashes outright. Useless and does not function as described.

### 1/5 — Sql Azure does not work for me

*2015-03-07*

won't connect to azure server

### 1/5 — Adding Server

*2014-01-31*

Could not scroll down on the Server setup screen either in portrait or Landscape. No Server =no access to your data.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work for me (Sql azure)

*2013-12-18*

Had high hopes.

### 5/5 — Nice application

*2016-02-11*

The application has simple interface. Adding new SQL server is very easy. Works from the first click. Stable. No crashes so far (iOS 9.2.1). 
There are several visible improvements:
1. When adding SQL Server settings in landscape mode the view should be scrolling.
2. When using query the header of the table should be fixed and visible.
3. All saved queries should be saved per server basis.

Overall the app is very useful.
Thanks

### 4/5 — Great App for on-the-go, latest update crashes!

*2013-11-21*

Great for simple functions while on the go. 
Latest update is crashing a lot.  Also wiped out previously saved queries.  Looking forward to expanded features of the product in the future.  Would be nice to re-save a file without having to retype the file name.  Importing previously built queries from SQL studio would be very ideal as well.  More suggestions forthcoming.  Pease fix latest bugs.  Thank you!

### 3/5 — Impressive for new release

*2014-12-26*

I was quickly able to connect to any SQL database and view any table but has serious issues with any table over 100 rows.  I even tried saving to a csv and opening in Excel.  It works for tiny tables but not a serious tool to purchase for anything over 100 rows.

### 2/5 — Ok for short queries

*2016-08-07*

Is ok for short queries, but if you have any long running queries you need to keep focus on the app or the queries will quit. :-(

### 2/5 — Potentially good

*2013-06-01*

The interface is cleaner and more useable than other apps like it. Keep polishing it.
Things to fix:

Sql text entry gets very slow as the query builds. Allow the user to deactivate the case and syntax coloring so that entry is faster.

It is not consistent in what table names it considers valid. For instance dc_SpectralBandwidth is not valid and causes an error, whereas Eval_TOSA_AC_Corrected is valid. Why?

No way to get help or contact the author. Is this intentional?

Tapping "Done" shouldn't force the user back to the very beginning. This causes too much work to complete repeated tasks. Keep the table list up always unless a new database is to be chosen.

I will keep this app unless there is no progress on it soon. Keep up the good work!!!
