Build dashboards from your APIs — no frontend required. Dashboardbase turns your REST endpoints into production-ready dashboards. Return structured JSON from your APIs, and we handle the charts, layout, and UI. No frontend code, no hosting, no maintenance. This app gives you mobile access to the dashboards you build on dashboardbase.com. Same data, same layouts, same permissions — in your pocket. WHAT YOU CAN DO IN THE APP - View any dashboard from your workspace, with the same widgets and live data as the web. - Switch between workspaces if you belong to more than one. - Receive push notifications when a customer opens a shared dashboard, or when a real-time reaction is triggered via webhook. - Toggle a weekly email digest summarising dashboard activity. - Set a default dashboard that opens when you launch the app. WIDGETS SUPPORTED - KPI — a single key metric with optional trend indicator. - Status — a health or availability indicator. - Table — structured data in rows and columns. - Line Chart — time-series data and trends. - Bar Chart — categorical comparisons. - Pie Chart — proportional data as a filled circle. - Donut Chart — proportional data as a ring. - Gauge Chart — progress toward a goal or threshold. YOUR DATA STAYS IN YOUR SYSTEM Dashboards connect directly to your APIs. We don't store your data, and we don't need access to your database. You keep full control. WHO IT'S FOR Developers, indie hackers, and small teams who want live KPIs from their own backends without building or maintaining another frontend app. GETTING STARTED You'll need a Dashboardbase account before signing in. Create one at dashboardbase.com — the dashboard editor is desktop-only. Once you have a dashboard, this app is the fastest way to check it on the go. REQUIREMENTS - An active Dashboardbase account. - At least one REST API endpoint returning structured JSON. SUPPORT Documentation, the JSON contract spec, and webhook setup guides are available at dashboardbase.com.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: dashboardbase at none against Interactful's 3. dashboardbase also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). Interactful's advantage is chart position (#115 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
