MobileDB vs DB Connect

MobileDB is a native PostgreSQL client for iPhone and iPad. Connect straight from your device to any Postgres database - over TLS or through an in-app SSH tunnel - and browse, query, and edit your data from anywhere. There is no backend and no account: your credentials live in the iOS Keychain and your data travels only between your device and your own servers. TRY IT INSTANTLY • Tap "Try the Demo" for a built-in sample database - browse tables and explore live dashboards with no account, no server, and no setup CONNECT YOUR WAY • Save multiple connections with passwords and SSH keys secured in the Keychain • TLS modes: require & verify, allow self-signed, or disable for local networks • Built-in SSH tunneling (the app does the ssh -L for you) with trust-on-first-use host-key pinning for databases behind a bastion BROWSE • Schema → table → row navigation with search • Structure view: columns, types, primary-key badges, defaults • Paginated data grid with sorting, sticky column headers, and one-tap refresh • Tap any cell to inspect and copy the full value • Filter by a value, or jump along a foreign key to the referenced row QUERY • SQL editor with autocomplete (tables, columns, keywords) • Query history and saved queries • Export results to CSV or JSON EDIT • Type-aware row editor - toggles for booleans, number pads, date pickers, UUID helpers • Insert, update, and delete keyed on the primary key • Unsaved-changes guard so you never lose an edit by accident DASHBOARDS • Build quick, native dashboards right on your phone - no SQL required • "Total count" for a big-number metric (e.g. total users) • "Count over time" - pick a date column and a window (24h to 12 months) for a trend chart • "Count by category" - a bar chart broken down by any column • Or write custom SQL and pick how to chart it (number, bar, line, or table) • Charts render natively with Swift Charts; refresh a whole dashboard with one tap WORK SAFELY IN PRODUCTION • Tag a connection as Development, Staging, or Production • Production shows an always-on red banner so you always know where you are • Open any connection read-only - the session is read-only and all write UI is hidden • A destructive-statement guard warns before UPDATE/DELETE without WHERE, and TRUNCATE / DROP / ALTER Postgres-only today, with an engine-agnostic core so more databases can follow. MobileDB collects no analytics and shows no ads. It has no servers of its own.

DB Connect is a database client for iPhone, iPad, and Mac that helps you explore and manage SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Supabase without losing sight of safety. Browse tables page by page, search across columns, add filters, sort results, and edit rows with confidence.

Import and export CSV data, create SQL dumps, build tables, create databases where supported, and manage users and privileges on supported MySQL and PostgreSQL servers. DB Connect also helps you keep an eye on important data. Turn a saved query into a monitor, run it on a schedule, and get notified when a value matches your rule. Widgets, Shortcuts, and Siri support make it easy to check status or jump back into your work.
