I had hoped this app would become active again, but alas, no updates since Nov 2023. The new version has issues, the most critical being that changed records are not saved to stable storage unless you close the DB by backing out to the DB list. If the app closes, either manually or automatically, I've found it would lose my updates. Also, backing up DB has become far harder now that files are hidden from file managers, which I think is Google's fault, though. This app needs more attention!

This is a great app. The 1 star is because it deletes records after you insert them. This seems to happen 10% of the time. I emailed the developer to ask for help with the self deleting records or for a refund. Will update. One other problem: it does not consistently respect your sorting preferences. Update 9/25: the developer emailed me back. Apparently new Androids don't save unless you exit the table back to the tables list view. I'll try that and update again.

UPDATED-July 2024. Not sure if company is active as website no longer seems to work. I've used this app for years - first on Palm OS and on Android OS. I've always gotten first rate service and it is a quality product. It's easy to use and provides flexibility in building personal data management tools. Worth the purchase price (or used to be anyway)!
