Tap Forms Organizer for Positive User Reviews
✓ Buy it now! Best App I've ever used.5 stars, hands down the best and most valuable app on my iPhone and I've been using it now for years. So good that I would buy an iPhone just to be able to use tapforms (if I didn't have one already). Seriously. But why you ask? Because I use it for recording almost everything! For example timesheet, expences, field data entry (frog surveys, habitat tree surveys etc), tax records, vehicle logbook, emission factors etc. Default forms are good for basic ideas but dont show you the real power this app has! Well done guys on making an outstanding app..Version: 3.1.3
✓ This app runs most aspects of my small business!I tried every small business management/crm system out there over the last two years and they all did most things well. The closest to 'my' perfect application though for my media production business has been tapforms. I can track jobs, manage crm, plan equipment for shoots, shot lists, you name it. And if I come up with something else I need I can make that too. The one thing I lament is the developer not integrating the app with the calendar as he did with contacts. Then it would surely be 'everybody's' perfect app. So, a huge Thank You, Well Done and PLEEASE allow me to make some sort of connection between forms and calendar entries, then I could really track everything. (I'm sure you said in your web forum that you would look at it when apple opened up its calendar data, which it did some time back now.).Version: 3.9.1
✓ Brilliant, and always getting betterUse this all the time, using my own databases to capture tasks and requirements. With each update tapforms gets better, and if it had a drawing function, even freehand, would be great this app alone would a reason to go for an ipad as a productivity tool. Although I capture photos of my whiteboards, use case models, activity diagram doodles and use them in the database.Version: 0
✓ A handy-dandy app!Just an Amazing app! I use it store my phone card numbers, account numbers, and other info that I can't memorize. It saves me a lot of time and hassle of trying to fish out all the info when I need it. It's one the most used apps on my phone. It's not one those apps that you purchase and it just sits there waiting to be put to use! I love the fact that it allows you to customize forms according to your needs. All in all, it's a very useful app!.Version: 0
✓ Awesome applicationThis is my new favourite application. I downloaded it a few hours ago and already I have a very handy wine database. Complete with pictures and voice notes. The app is easy to use and feels solid..Version: 0
✓ Switched from HanDBaseVery longtime HanDBase user, but finally switched because I wanted a simple database utility that takes full advantage of iCloud to sync my databases between my iPhone, iPad, and iMac. Looks like Tap Forms is it. I found it easy to figure out how to create new "forms" (databases) for my various records. I installed TF on my iPhone after getting it sorted out out on my iPad. As soon as I turned on iCloud in TF on my iPhone, TF synchronized with the work I had done on the iPad. Great start. Next: import my databases from HanDBase..Version: 3.1.3
✓ No Problems HereI don't understand why this app is getting such bad reviews. I'm using version 4.0.7 and have no problems. I have not opted to upgrade to version 5, so I guess that's the difference where the others are having difficulties. I have given this app glowing reviews in years past and have used it regularly ever since in my business for customer scheduling. I sync an iPhone and three different generations of iPads at the same time without issue. I came here to check out what this version 5 was all about; and though I will wait to upgrade, I believe the developer will work hard to correct any issue the feedback reveals. As far as the folks calling the developer "greedy" for charging $16 for their work product, I can only assume they've never been an entrepreneur. There is nothing wrong with charging for a product, work performed or a service. That's how most people are paid! Grow up already. Give up a couple of those $6 cups of coffee and call it even. 😑.Version: 4.0.7
✓ ExcellentNow I keep all my important information safe and on the go!! It's so handy!!!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Fantastic AppThis is probably the most useful app I've purchased from the App Store and I've only had it a few days. I played with the Lite version a couple days and was so thrilled with the ease of use that I decided to buy the full program. I've been wanting a "specific" iPhone app that just doesn't exist and I was able to create it with Tap Forms! No, it's not all roses and candy, I'm having trouble getting one part of the program to work correctly on my system, but looking at the improvements that have been made plus the quick way in which the developer responds to requests makes me *very* comfortable with my purchase. I was torn between Tap Forms and HanDBase and while the latter does appear more powerful at this time (it's relational), I know that's something the TF developer is working on -- and so it came down to the look and feel. Tap Forms *looks* like an iPhone app should, and since I'll be using it daily the look is actually important. The program as it stands with this version is good enough for the needs I have -- and I can't wait to see what new features are going to show up in the future..Version: 0
✓ Better browsing needed.First off great program. One of the absolute best utilities I've put on my iPhone. There is room for improvement in some areas, better backup/computer interface is one example. Another that I actually care more about is having better built-in browsing. The ability to click on a web link in a record and have it open up right in Tap Forms is merely novel without being able to go back and forth between the web page and the record. For instance, say I need to fill out multiple fields on a web site, all with information I have in a record. Without having keep all the information in my head while I open the page and enter the data, I would need to write it all down on a scrap of paper and then proceed to the page. Holding the page in the iPhone's memory while I go back to the record would be ideal..Version: 0
✓ Ok, this app rocks!I changed to this app from handbase, mainly because you can easily email files in .csv format, which can be used in excel. Having used it for a few months, I've been very happy. Today I discovered another feature I wish I'd worked out earlier (you can import and export in different date formats for those who aren't American), which changes my mind to being extremely happy with this app. Easy to use, very customisable and reliable. Top work!.Version: 2.1.12
✓ Great for mobile professionalThis review applies to the Mac app and the iPhone app. Tap forms is the solution for the mobile professional. As a solo attorney, I need to be able to keep track of billing, time, status, clients and many other details in the office and on the road with clients. I have been looking for software like this since I started practice 6 years ago. I have tried programs and database solutions that cost hundreds of dollars. Tap forms is better than all of them for a few reasons. First, it is very simple to customize. Anybody can make a comprehensive database in a few minutes. Rather than trying to make other software work, you can make this software fit your business model. Second, the mobile app is just as easy and provides a simple, but extensive user interface. Also to note, some of the negative reviews are premature and without consideration I experienced a minor problem, emailed customer support at 11:15 pm and received a personal email from the developer in under 30 minutes. He worked with me demonstrating genuine interest and devotion to his software and resolved the issue (which turned out to be my oversight). Very few products are developed by somebody with personal interest. In sum, this product can be customized to fit your business or personal needs. You can track everything on your phone and on your mac. The cloud sync works perfectly. I am recommending this product to all of my small business clients and fellow attorneys..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Tap forms on iPad2Why can I not share my Tap Forms Data on my iPhone 4 with my iPad2 ? Am I missing something?.Version: 4.0.7
✓ One list app to rule them all?Probably. This is a seriously fine achievement and will cater for all my data storage needs on the iphone for the foreseeable future. By giving the user the ability to create clever but not over-complicated custom lists, it effectively renders much of the competition redundant. The import and export feature is a genius addition. One suggestion: offer the option for the user to convert custom databases to pick lists. That would mean users could import their pick list data just as they do the data items themselves. Congratulations to the developers for a must have app..Version: 0
✓ AmazingThis app is great! Love it's simplicity, and the ability to integrate with spreadsheets..Version: 0
✓ Outstanding supportThe timeliness and excellence of support for this app is surely the benchmark to which all apps should aspire. I couldn't work out how to export/ import to/from MS excel which is a little tricky for a novice like me, and had responses to my three emails within 6hours, half an hour, and 2hours respectively. While we can't always expect this speed of turnaround, it is highly impressive to receive it even once. Thanks Brendan..Version: 0
✓ Love this appBeen using this for years and love it. Can feel overly complicated at times but that’s because there are so many features. New feature request would be make it more difficult to delete a record, maybe a two step process?.Version: 4.0.9
✓ Awesome!!!I am loving this app! So customizable in every way, the possibilities are endless! Highly recommended for people who want to stay organized by keeping everything in the palm of your hand. The voice recognition feature on the note taker is so accurate, even with my Australian accent. And did I mention it even has a drawing option?! I'm so impressed. Thank you!.Version: 2.1.10
✓ Keeps locking upI love this app and is one I could not live without but it keeps locking up in the login screen and will not display the keypad so you can login. Have to reboot to fix. Please fix!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ A Quality App that is Unequelled!I have been a user of Tap Forms for a year and it just keeps on getting better with every ugrade and additional feature. This is such a powerful way to create databases from any data that you can convert into CSVs using Excel etc. .... and out again I might add! It has yet to crash on me, lose data or malperform in any way. WebDav feature is strong and reliable. File transfer is fast and also very reliable. All in all this app out performs all others of its type for features and functionality. Currently on offer so grab a copy at this ridiculous price - you won't be disappointed!.Version: 0
✓ Best of the bunchGreat app have used it over the years for keeping private details and analysis of expenses. I use this app on a daily basis. Good if you cannot remember certain essential information..Version: 4.0.9
✓ Nice bit of kitLovely interface. I'd like the option to graph the data I've inputted. That would negate the need for any desktop app. For example, to be able to plot numerical results against date. To include some basic maths like dividing the contents of one field by that of another and putting it into a new 'formula' field - Now that would really replace a lot of my existing apps. Any chance of seeing this in a future update?.Version: 0
✓ Great App!!I use it to catalog my paper and digital sewing patterns. The ability to add any type of field from text to tick box to drop downs makes it really easy to add all the search categories you could ever want. Only one suggestion the ability to duplicate a form entry would be great. Fabulous app. BTW I heard about your app from a sewing blog, which was referencing another sewing blog that mentioned you..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Excellent for the OCD Listmaker Inside Me!Last week I decided to start the task of cataloging all the plants in my garden. There was no acceptable gardening app for this task so I did it the old school way on the spreadsheet. Furthermore, I was going to print out my spreadsheet, take notes with a pen, and transfer them back to the computer. App geeks, you know that there is a better way. So I visited all the database apps and purchased three: HanDBase, StoreIt, and TapForms. They're all functional for what I need to do but TapForms has the superior GUI. Functionality and aesthetics--that's how an application succeeds. I visited the developer's website and it looks like he is hard at work improving the program and responding to all sorts of requests. That's great but I hope that the developer has strong boundaries as to what this program is and isn't. Looks like people want this to be part of a strong business engine for under $10. Don't try to compete with FM Touch. Just keep it simple and functional. This is one of the top 3 apps that I have purchased from iTunes. I will be using it all the time. I look forward to the data encryption and hope that there will be a feature that allows the remote deletion of data should the device be lost. Is that even possible? I don't know. They're making a lot of impossible things happen these days..Version: 0
✓ Works greatI've been using this wonderful app for years.Version: 3.9.2
✓ Awesome appThis along with momo are the two jewels out of all my apps. Momo is a superb journal/diary that I enter details of what I have done each day. You can add photos, and it's killer feature is that it syncs to the web. I use TapForms daily to store lots of different sorts of info. It is just so powerful and so easy to keep those bits of info organized. I am a doctor and I have created databases for things from bleep numbers, to medications, to management strategies. It is very simple to create and customize the databases, and of course they can be backed up to your computer. I emailed their support system and got a rapid respose thanking me for my ideas, even asking for my opinion! Superb product that I shall use for a long time..Version: 0
✓ Tap FormsGreat database. So much power in such a great app. I found the forms very easy to make and use. Would highly recommend this app to anyone needing quick, simple access to data. Well done to the developers!.Version: 2.1.5
✓ Excellent Database AppThis is an excellent database application which is a joy to use - with versions for iPhone, iPad and Mac. For those seeking a replacement for Bento, like myself, this is arguably the best option, since importing existing Bento databases using the Mac-based application is simple and accurate. But in many ways it is more powerful and flexible than Bento and has the added attraction that changes made on one device, when ‘pushed’ to iCloud Drive, will automatically dowload to all other devices when the application is opened; Bento’s synchronisation was never this simple and limited the number of devices which could be synchronised. This is a relatively new application and early versions suffered from some issues. However, with version 3.9.2, it has matured considerably and most problems and limitations have now been addressed. I would therefore highly recommend Tap Forms to those seeking an easy to use, yet relatively powerful and flexible database application, which can be used across all Mac devices (albeit the Mac version needs to be purchased separately)..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Bye bye Bento :(With sadness, I bid farewell to Bento; my goto database program... Until now. I have found TapForms amazing. I have been able to recreate databases that were previously on Bento. Any queries I have had have been promptly and completely answered by the developer. My databases synchronise and back up as they should. Big thumbs up for TapForms.Version: 3.9.4
✓ SuperbI'd been after an application which could store secure notes, passwords etc. for quite a while and this is by far the best. Simple to use and easy to configure. Well worth the money. My gripe is how difficult this is to find in the iTunes store - the name & the icon convey almost nothing. I'm sure this would be far more popular if people could actually find it..Version: 0
✓ Absolutely brilliantI cannot believe that the developers have put so much usable functionality into this app. Besides normal db capabilities, the interfaces to computers are excellent. Have just imported a csv file from my mac and it created a form for me with the data loaded. Brilliant people - thanks..Version: 0
✓ Invaluable piece of kitI have been using tap forms for over three years now and have thousands of entries which I use daily in my line of work. Easy to use in all incarnations (iPad, iPhone and Mac). And easy to share this information with my work colleagues who have also purchased it for its ease of use. Keep up the excellent work!.Version: 3.9.2
✓ Great App, excellent developer!It's nice to see small developers creating such useful and thought-out software. This replaced Bento for me when FileMaker discontinued it, and does all I need it to and more. I had some troubles earlier this year (that were my own doing) and the developer was quick and comprehensive in his support. He took a lot of time to help me restore my database and get everything working again..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Picks up where Bento left offI've used FileMaker's Bento for years to manage expense tracking, invoicing etc for my small business. But Bento is no longer being supported/updated - which was fine till things broke with Yosemite. Now smart collections don't work etc. So I went looking for a replacement. TapForms is a little less intuitive to use than Bento - and works a bit differently, but I've been using it now for a few weeks and think now that I like it better than Bento..Version: 3.9.2
✓ The best app in the App Store!!!I've wasted so much money in apps that showed a lot of promise and ended up being complete duds!!! But not this one!!! This beatifully crafted database is a delight to use! Aa a matter of fact, Tap forms has already replaced several of my (paid...sigh) application. The developers have definitely set a new standard for others to follow Great job .Version: 0
✓ UserThis app has brought order out of chaos. It is so easy to keep track of the multitude of numbers and codes that seem to grow like topsy. Very easy to use.Version: 2.1.8
✓ Good Reliable AppVery flexible database. Well supported. Regular updates. Import and export works well. Integrates with iOS contacts. Using IPad, iPhone and Mac. Sync works very well with Dropbox. Lags a little with iCloud. Highly recommended as a work tool. Have been using this app for a couple of years. Rock solid. Very flexible and easy to use..Version: 4.0.1
✓ Fabulous app - great support!I don't leave a lot of app reviews, but when something's this good I tend to make an exception. Whenever I do an OS upgrade, this is the first app I check to make sure all's well. It usually is. Unfortunately, iOS8 brought some problems for Tap Forms, which I reported to the developer. I have to say, I was incredibly impressed by the very quick response, even though it was the middle of the night in Canada, where they're based (I'm in the UK). I received a reply within two minutes, informing me that the developer was aware of the problem, and had already fixed it for the next Tap Forms update. Sure enough, the problem is gone. Developers like this deserve all the support we can offer. Tap Forms is an amazingly useful and versatile app. Do the developer a favour and recommend it to all your friends!.Version: 3.9
✓ Excellent database - your creativity is the only limitI have now been using TapForms for over a year and I continue to find more and more uses for it. Previous review. I have now been using for months and love this app. I have never lost my data. But if I did, I back up my data weekly or more often, sometimes. PREVIOUS REVIEW: The Tap Forms App exceeded all my expectations. You can customize the database forms for anything you can imagine. You can store contacts, passwords, travel information, restaurants, frequent flyer data and much more. For instance, I created a story for each Hebrew character and use that for remembering vocabulary words and how to spell them. It was easy to make up a form to store that data. Anything you are interested in you can store; the only limit is your imagination. I have created my own databases (you have an extensive choice of fields to choose from, such as voice recordings, drawing, phone numbers, locations, photos, text, and so on). You choose which fields are useful for the database you are building. Or, you can begin with forms that already have been designed and modify them to fit your needs. Most of the fields in your databases are elegantly linked to other applications in the iPhone, such as the voice narration, telephone and maps. You can edit or add fields even after you begin to enter data. It has a sophisticated backup system which you need to learn how to use on a regular basis. The App is very stable and the customer support is outstanding. The program does not seem at all simple at first, and there is a learning curve required. It took me several days to master it. Before purchasing, I would suggest that you first download the free Tap Forms Database Lite app and see if it seems to meet your needs. [Several years have passed since my last review and I want to say thank-you so much, again. And thanks for incorporating fingerprint touch as a way to skip password. Keep up the fantastic work.].Version: 4.0.7
✓ A part of my work dayI couldn't imagination not having this amazing app on my iOS devices and my Mac. This is what Bento should have evolved to. Excellent app..Version: 3.9.2
✓ THREE SORTING FIELDS.... WIN OVER BENTO AND OTHERSONLY REASON FOR MY BUYING THIS APP IS ITS SORTING ABILITY, WHICH I SEARCHED IN BENTO (THEY ONLY HAVE ONE SORTING FILTER). FOR ME SORTING IS VERY IMPORTANT. STILL THIS APP IS EXPENSIVE I THINK, BUT I NEED IT, SO BOUGHT IT. ATLEAST U CAN TRY LITE VERSION FIRST TO DECIDE FIRST. WHICH GIVES U 15 ENTRIES. TAP FORM TEAM, PLZ DONT COMPROMISE WITH SORTING FUNCTIONS...RATHER TRY TO MAKE IT MORE BETTER. SMALL FEATURE, BUT POWERFULL JUST LIKE GOOGLESITES.COM FORMS.... EASY AND SIMPLE AND COMPLETE FOR SMALL PERSONAL DATABASE..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Worth it!!Tried to do what I wanted with another form/list app and after almost a day of customizing MY list the way IT wanted, it wouldn't sync!! That was money wasted!! Bought this app and viola!! No hassles, better interface and overall faster & better! By the way, my first review after years of buying apps and this app deserved to be mentioned!!.Version: 2.1.11
✓ Very useful personal databaseI use this as a mood journal (using a custom form of my own), including using a calculated field to come up with an overall value based on several value I've entered. I also use it to track planes I've spotted. In both cases, creating the forms was simple, and adding records is simple..Version: 3.8.2
✓ Excellent!!!This has become one of my all-time favorite apps! I have been able to replace several of the apps I had on my ipod with this one. The ability to make your own forms and customize the ones already avaiable, makes this app invaluable. The interface is clean and simple, and you can email your lists to yourself or anyone else. It would be great if it were possible to back-up your data - especially since I have so much information stored. The addition of a desk-top component would also be of great value. Great work! I hope an update is on the way!.Version: 0
✓ Outstanding App!!I've been using this app frequently for the past 2 years and it just becomes more useful. I had a small issue with the encryption of my passwords, I emailed the developer and had an immediate reply. The support for this app is like no other. Thank you Brendan, keep up the good work..Version: 2.1.6
✓ Best database program for iOS!I have tried them all, and tap forms is by far the best of the bunch. Furthermore it has a Mac OS X counterpart which makes data entry all the easier. I highly recommend tap forms.Version: 4.0.4
✓ Great App!I have both the Mac desktop version as well as the iPhone version of Tap Forms. I have been blown away, after wrestling with a contact database designed in Microsoft Access for years, by the intuitive interface and ease of setup of Tap Forms. After migrating the data and verifying the fields for import, which does take time to ensure the fields are registering properly, the design process of my custom form was fun! The default form allows all the data to be input into fields in a straightforward linear manner, while my custom form allows me to view the data, on the desktop only, in a clean formatted manner. The iPhone version allows me to take the data on the go, so I don't even have to save out a PDF version to load into my iBooks, saving me time. Looking forward to great things in the future from Tap Forms!.Version: 3.9.2
✓ Great AppThere's probably no app that I use more on my iPhone or iPad. I use it for organising pretty much everything. Its versatile but also very easy to use. Fantastic and timely support as well. BTW I don't make the above comments lightly. I rarely write reviews, actually this is the only app I've written a review for and I've had every iPhone since the first one came out almost 8 years ago..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Great app!I absolutely love this app and have been using it for at least a decade now as my password manager, since long before password managers have become a thing to have. I’ve noticed that the new iOS 15.4 update seems to cause it to immediately crash. I really, really, really hope this can be fixed. Please 🙏🏼 *** Update *** The developer was correct. I had moved from a Touch ID device to a Face ID device, and the app was instantly crashing. I deleted and reinstalled TapForms, and as long as I don’t try to use Face or Touch ID on the new device, the app opens just fine. Thanks for the tip! That should get me by a while longer..Version: 4.0.9
✓ Elegant replacement for FileMaker MobileSince I ditched my old Palm for a shiny iPod Touch, I've been looking for an affordable solution to my old, discontinued FileMaker Mobile. I used this to add new records while on the move that I could sync back to my desktop database. After looking into the options, I tried out Tap Forms. I've been thoroughly impressed. It's got an elegant, intuitive interface and it's slick to use. It's so much more user friendly than my geriatric FileMaker Mobile that the two are hardly comparable. I've since added many hundreds of rows into five forms, the largest with over 50 columns, and I've easily emailed the forms back to myself as csv files for importing into my desktop FileMaker databases. If you can live without the desktop database syncing of FileMaker Mobile (or FMTouch), I thoroughly recommend Tap Forms. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of a power database, and I've made some suggestions for added features on their website (e.g., importable pick lists and simple relationships between forms would be useful). However, at this price point, you're getting a whole lot of mobile databasing goodness for your money, so it's five stars from me..Version: 0
✓ Excellent appThis app is fantastic, there are a couple of issues with it though. Photos cannot be cropped so becomes increasingly hard to take a photo crop it and then attach it here. Sometimes the Cammero just hangs and there is a black screen. But apart from these, the app is fantastic and recommended..Version: 3.9.1
✓ Awesome appI use this app for everything from login information to keeping track of merchandising and pricing.Version: 3.8.3
✓ Best tool ever!5 stars no often awarded but this is great. If any improvements could be made? Perhaps a wider range of icons. Also would be good to be able to attach a pick list to a text field but no complaints ;-)).Version: 4.0.1
✓ GoodMade little sense at first, but after a few hours I think I have a handle on it. Would be good if you could have a subset of fields under some fields so that different fields could be utilised depending on what what was "picked" in a field. That makes sense doesn't it?....Version: 3.5.5
✓ Un gestionnaire de données simple et efficace!Comparable à Bento, il le remplace admirablement sur Mac et sur mobile. Je l'utilise pour la prise de notes et la collection de données dans la vie de tout les jours et au travail. Son développeur offre une assistance senti et apprécié. Thanks!.Version: 3.9.2
✓ Customer support is superb!I have been using Tap Forms for nearly a year and can't say enough about this product. I use it primarily as a database for my customer contacts. Creating a custom database from scratch was simple and quick. The other day I decided to try out some more advanced features including importing, exporting, syncing, and file transfers. I ran into a couple of glitches because of the some of the features I was using in my custom form, so I emailed Tap Forms customer support and I could not believe it when I received an email back within 15 minutes with answers to my questions. Not only did Brendan answer my questions and help me fix my problems, but he offered some tips on how to improve the things I was trying to accomplish. While Tap Forms is a superb database, their customer service is second to none! Kyle Williams.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Great app + great supportApart from being an awesome app (which I have not made full use of I yet), the support is great! Had a problem with a calculation thing in both the iPhone and iPad version and so I emailed support. The response was not only quick but I could tell that he really wanted to get to the bottom of the problem! The problem was fixed efficiently and quickly! Thanks again Brendan!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Single Greatest AppProbably the single greatest and most useful app in the app store. The power, customizability, and usefulness of this app is amazing. In my tapforms I have everything from gift ideas (w/ a pic and link attached to an address book contact) and long-term shopping lists to my car maintenance history (with attached pic of receipts) and logins for various websites. And much more. All this on my phone, and organized in a simple, intuitive, and password-protected manner. Also add on the ability to d/l and u/l from Dropbox and tapforms even has its own webserver utility (you just tap "on" and it lists an address you type on your browser and boom! You're on your phone as a local database over wi-fi. Both http and ftp). Absolutely fantastic! I would say that the program in its current build is easily worth over $30. I've already spent roughly 20-30 man hours fiddling, making and re-making forms to just the way I want. You can customize this thing to the umpteenth degree with any and all information you have. Buy it. I assure you, you will not regret it. After you buy it, sit down with it for a few hours and figure out how everything works and is organized. This will save you from re-making forms once you realize a better way to do it later on..Version: 2.1.11
✓ It’s a great app, but...First off I’d like to say for what I’m using it for it has been a great app. I love, and love how it organizes my information. The only thing that prevents it from being a 5 star app is that the developer (I’m assuming it’s them that determines price) has decided that they need to charge a full $10 for each version, i.e. iPad, iPhone, mac. So, while the price tag says $10, be aware that it is in fact, for full functionality and accessibility from your devices, it is more like $30. Personally, I’m not sure why that is necessary as a lot of apps that have multi device formats usually make you pay once and then it’s good for all devices. Anyway, It is a good app, just not sure it’s necessary to charge for each device. Cheers..Version: 4.0.2
✓ Perfect for GTD - Getting Things DoneI have been using Tap Forms for years for my GTD personal productivity. I have forms for my Vision of my life, 5 Goals for the coming year, 22 Responsibilities this year, 96 Projects to undertake this week and in the coming weeks, and 418 Actions to perform in various contexts this week that each bring me a step closer to my Vision. I also keep checklists, 60 stories I am writing, 11 recipes, 53 inventions, 443 passwords, and plenty of financial information all encrypted in a database that doesn’t need any multinational corporations’ clouds to function. It all resides on my phone, quickly accessible. I also routinely make backups to store offline so if I ever lose my phone, I can easily restore the whole database to a new one..Version: 4.0.9
✓ Great features, nice price.I was testing FileMaker for the past few weeks and held off buying a licence for the trial version. I'm glad I did, because after discovering Tap Forms today, I've not only saved myself a ton of money (and I will buy the Mac version too), but also saved myself the headache of configuring FileMaker. Tap Forms is simple to use, but extremely powerful. I'm using it for my small business to track inventory. The database search is super fast. I'm very impressed..Version: 4.0.2
✓ The best form/database applicationI've been using TapForms since early 2009. To say the least its the best form/database application out there for mac & iOS. I'm still surprised to find that the apps are consistently updated at no extra charge, nor has the developer created separate "versions" charging again for the app. I had previously used Bento and the accompanying iOS apps, but the iOS apps are dreadful. I needed something that both performed well with iOS (iPhone & iPad) and my mac. TapForms was the solution and I've been using it ever since. Currently I use it to keep track of tech support tickets & website clients. The only thing I hope to see In the future, is the ability to sync with an external cloud, such as Dropbox. This way, the database could be shared across multiple users instead of just one user..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Cautious RecommendationMy main use so far has been to import csv files exported from my old Psion 5, which had an excellent and very flexible and simple yet powerful database on it. Had some problems with conversion but the Tech Support was quite helpful albeit a bit too technical (inability to speak in layman's language). Cannot speak for the built in forms as these have so far been of no interest to me. A fourth "sort by" level would be useful. So too would be some help, whether within app or online manual. Not as user friendly or as flexible as my Psion 5 app was but at least I have succeeded in getting the basic data across to my iPhone. Cannot yet see that one can use "special characters" but maybe there is a way..Version: 0
✓ Goodbye Bento!I'd been struggling with Bento since upgrading. It's limited export options meant my data is stuck there. Got this and recreated my database in minutes. It has great export options. Wish it auto saved when you went back to the form. Fantastic! Goodbye Bento!.Version: 2.1.10
✓ Great AppThis is a great App. I use it for all sorts of business applications using the custom forms. The flexibility is wonderful. Tech support answers questions immediately and u very helpful. Keep up the good work..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Best organisational application I have!Amazing. I've created a database for all my college assignments so I know what is going on when and when it needs handing in. I've created a database of all my films and Xbox 360 games so I know exactly what I have. Basically you can create forms that you fill in data. e.g. Box 1: Film Title. Box 2: Film Genre. The input options are huge, text, numbers, dates, times, tick boxes and more! If you want an application that you can use for stuff from creating shopping lists to contact databases to recording all the jobs you've applied for (these are a few examples of what I have done). It's well worth the money, you wont need any other organisational appliaction besides this and the calander that comes with the iPod.Version: 0
✓ Excellent secure databaseI have had this app for quite a few years now and find it absolutely invaluable. The developer has continued to release updates and it works very well indeed. Apps I've had for much less time are now obsolete. Taps forms is where I store all my important data, such as car MOT and servicing details etc. You can include calculations in the forms you create too. The security is brilliant..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Great appCan sync and backup to icloud or dropbox.Version: 4.0.7
✓ Essential appI started using this app to track stats for work. Then I used it for data gathering on a research assignment. Then I started using it for encrypted, secure journaling. Then I used it to backup all my passwords in a central location. Along with the desktop companion (which syncs beautifully) this app has become a central staple in my daily life and work..Version: 4.0.1
✓ Great database app. Looking for geo searchThis app is working great for me. I am so glad that Bento died. The design makes data entry fast and easy. I would really like a geo search function that would find all entries that were within a specified distance of a point. Now the location field is not very useful for searches. Syncing works well too. Version 4.Version: 4.0.7
✓ Excellent flexible app. Just wish it was on Windows too.Have been using this app for a few years now and every update has offered genuine improvement. It is flexible and customisable enough to be a massive day to day boon. I use it for everything from keeping track of car MoT dates, tyre pressures etc, lists of books we have to bank details and passwords. It is BRILLIANT. I just wish they'd produce a version for Windows platform that I could sync with. That would make it worth 5*.Version: 4.0.2
✓ Impressive, fast, and simple to useI wanted to bring records of the various beers I've tasted off of the “social” website I was using and back to being just for me. A key requirement was being able to record new tastings in my iPhone. Tap Forms does this easily for me. And between the Mac version & iCloud support (and ultimately if need be, SQLite), I can be assured that I will always be able to own and use my data. Now I'm thinking about other new forms I can develop to record stuff..Version: 3.5
✓ Powerful but ideosyncraticThis is an amazing app I couldn't live without. Is easy to set up a database to log almost any kind of data. It is as powerful as expensive apps costing much more. The downside is that there are quite a few features that are awkward and not done the standard iOS way. It is as if the developers only use an iOS device to develop this app and have no idea what a typical user expects. For example sharing. The share icon is used for several other functions so it hard to find the actual share menu. To finally get to the standard share menu you know and love, the one that is a single click or menu choice in other apps, is a multistep operation on this app and needs action on several menu levels. Very un-iOS. It is so buried that you will not find it unless you ask on a forum. I'm certain most users don't know there is a share menu. On the other hand these are annoyances. This app is a personal database tool tool and that job it gets right..Version: 4.0.6
✓ Great app with very good supportI bought this app on a bit of an impulse quite a while ago and didn't find much use for it. Recently, though, I realised I could use it to store a collection of poems and songs that I have on my computer. Importing these was initially problematic but I asked a question on the developer's blog and he answered by email, literally within minutes! It turned out I just hadn't set the character encoding correctly. Now it works just fine. In my view, this kind of attentive support from developers is one of the most important factors in deciding to buy something, so I thought I'd share it here. Because of my positive experiences I have great confidence in receiving support in future, and so I would definitely recommend Tap Forms as a sound choice. Now to go and find out what other stuff I can import...!.Version: 0
✓ Very Happy UserGreat app. Very useful for the service industry. I work as a techinician and i record all my service calls, with times and parts used and client details and once complete email my completed call back to the office. It is great that you can create these custom forms so easily. Great App!!!.Version: 0
✓ Pure AwesomenessAs the title says...I have everything on this app. It is soo versatile, limited only by your imagination. Most used app on my phone..Version: 4.0.4
✓ So Far, I'd have to call this a category killer.It's a beautiful app. Well designed and user friendly. It's intuitive and easy to get going quckly. I'd like to see better security and a desktop app but so far am very pleased and looking forward to version 1.5 which is due anytime. It reminds me of Filemaker in that it is a database for non-geeks. It's also fun to play around with..Version: 0
✓ Very fully featured, cross-platform functionality, unbelievably responsive support!It’s been about nine months since I last reviewed Tap Forms for iOS. I feel compelled to review it again because I am constantly so excited and pleased about this product. Here’s an indicator of how strongly I feel: when I installed Yosemite, the very first thing I wanted to do was test the functionality of Tap Forms iCloud syncing with iOS. The product is not bug-free, but it is SO fully featured and SO assiduously maintained and supported, I only wish I could give it more than 5 stars. I actually feel guilty that the developer hasn’t charged me anything since my initial purchases on the various platforms, despite his adding a great deal of functionality and providing outstanding support. I am particularly fond of the “inverse relationship” feature, which allows two-way linking of database fields. I find all kinds of uses for this, and don’t know of ANY other consumer-level product which provides this functionality on the Mac, iPad, and iPhone. I think Tap Forms is unique in its functionality and close to unique in the level of dedication and commitment shown demonstrated by its developer. If you’re organization-prone and data driven as I am, this is an app you should not pass up, at any price!.Version: 3.9.2
✓ Login CrashLatest update loaded, however: iPhone 6SE, Crashes/bumps back to home screen @ first attempt to login. 2nd login works great. Longtime user-Still enjoying app big time!.Version: 4.0.7
✓ Tap FormsThe new update is excellent. I have been using this app for a while now and it has been more than i expected. The guy that said there are only two forms hasnt fully discovered the gems found in this app. Just hit the+ button in the top corner to see more. There are many more preset forms to use. Simply outstanding.Version: 0
✓ This app is so GreatI bought this app a week ago and have started to make some new databases with it. I was looking today for an app that could keep a check on if I had sent a Christmas card to someone and also if I got one back from them as well, then I remembered I had this app and made a database using my contacts in my phone book and just 2 check boxes, one for sent cards and another for received cards. So simple but it works great, and the makers of this app are going to be updating it so you can sort by more than the first field so i'll be able to see who has sent me cards after Christmas..Version: 0
✓ Tap Forms ReviewTap Forms application is an outstanding application. It can be used to store just about any type of data. It is not a complicated and involved program but an application that will make it easy for anyone to create, on the fly, simple databases for storing information. It has no calculation or graphing functions but, does an excellent job at what it was designed for, storing important data. I use Tap Forms to keep records for everything from household inventory, glucose monitoring, blood pressure readings, food log, weight tracking, serial numbers, technical notes and historical notes . I am amazed every time I set up a database as to how easy it is and how much information I can save. If I need to see calculations of the data I have entered I simply email myself a cvs file and import the file into either Numbers or Excel then set up the calculations and graphing. What I would like to see in a future revision is the ability for summing numbers, getting averages, max and min values. Tap Forms is a great application for storing data and is easy to set up..Version: 0
✓ This is my most used appIf comparing to HanDBase, there are things it can't do, but the things it can do, it does the best. That's why I gave it 5 stars instead of 4. Because it can do nested forms, supports textexpander, photos, contacts, etc. and then formats it into a nicely designed email, I use it for quotations, logs, agendas etc. if you like HanDBase, you'll find this faster and the reporting ability right from your iPhone is something handbase can't do..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Soon to be five starsI have worked with database software for years and, although this is not a full relational database, it is great..Version: 3.7
✓ Fantastic!I love this app. Been using It for years. Very handy for important information. Bank accounts passwords license plate and registration. Any details you want at your fingertips without having to look in a filing cabinet. You can actually make forms using this app so I'm not sure why that was a complaint of another user and it seems professional to me, I can't see why this couldn't be used on a professional level, depends on what you need exactly. I give this app five stars. It also has a handy easy back up button now to back up your database that I think was an update. Bonus. I recommend keeping your data backed up. I had to get a new iPhone and forgot to back up before replacing it so I'm starting the database over again now and will definitely be backing up this time around, that was my own fault though not the apps. Great program, highly recommended..Version: 2.1.12
✓ The best database app by farIt's so easy to create a fully featured database. It does everything you could want with many different field types including custom pick lists. You can even add and delete fields at any time and easily reorder them by grabbing the three lines box at the end of each field in edit mode and dragging the field to the desired place in the order. Buy this. You won't regret it..Version: 0
✓ ExcellentEver since apps became available on the iPhone I have been searching in vain for an app that could store details of all the books I own, and on my shortlist. All the apps dedicated to this task have been buggy and unstable. Most have since disappeared. I bought Listomni based on its excellent reviews, but found it wasn't up to the task. It's interface was over-cluttered. It was a pig to import data into. And it couldn't handle the number of items I was trying to store without being unuseably slow. Altogether a poor experience. Then I found Tap Forms. It seemingly does everything Listomni does. But with more polish. Importing is easy and intuitive. It handles the number of items I need with panache. It's stable and very intuitive to use. It really does seem to have cracked the problem. I'm thrilled. The only problem I've found is that its search can be unreliable. I can enter a few records using a specific term, then when I search for that term they either don't show up, or not all instances show up. This aspect is clearly a little shaky. Having said that I'm still giving it 5 stars because it is the only app I've found that does pretty much what I want without falling over. Excellent. Thanks!.Version: 0
✓ Tap Forms is better than ever!I use the app on my iPhone and my Mac to keep track of a number writing and speaking tasks that I must perform as part of my job. Tap Forms maintains all of these detailed records, syncing between the two devices effortlessly and seamlessly. Without this wonderful app, I would be unable to do my job effectively. Thanks!!.Version: 4.0.5
✓ OutstandingI just keep finding more uses for this excellent app. I love the total flexibility in building records, and the very intuitive interface and workflow. And the support - unbelievable! I had one query and one suggestion, and my emails were answered literally within minutes. One of the best apps I've found. I rarely give 5 stars, but this one is truly deserving. Outstanding!.Version: 0
✓ Outstanding databaseI've been using this for years to store a range of important data (like a list of dates when things happened that I always forget (!) ; office door codes etc) It just works -and for a wide range of things (though initially deciding how to make and use forms wasn't obvious and sometimes still confuses me). Improvements in updates keep it good. REQUEST: could password fields please NOT default to ALWAYS starting with capital letters? I have had a number of annoying mistakes because of CAPS/NO CAPS confusions..Version: 4.0.5
✓ Fantastic app and supportA great app which I use on both iPhone and mac. Had a few problems to begin with by me being a numbty but the support I got was excellent and I was able to sort out all problems. Definitely 5 stars for app and support..Version: 3.1.1
✓ The BestEasy to use yet very powerful. It's come in handy for tracking property with photos and serial numbers, collections and much more..Version: 4.0.2
✓ Terrific - Great secure data storeI must have 100s of passwords to web sites, WIFI setup passwords and usernames and passwords at work, dates to remember (eg when my phone contract runs out!). Etc etc. Of course I do only store usernames and a "password prompt" - although you can encrypt data. (Not that daft!). Now it's even more impressive - despite using an iPhone 3GS it still manages to interpret my voice instructions and record notes without me typing!!! Tap forms is terrific at storing all this STUFF, but with the slick and intuitive interface we've come to love on the iPhone and ipad. And now it includes iCloud automatic sync! Great functionality and easy to use. I use it at least once every day. Several times during a weekday. Finally - it gets an app update every 3-4 months - probably the most free updated app I have on my iPhone. Highly recommended!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Useful AppTap Forms does what I need in a simple to use database. When Bento disappeared I wasn't sure I'd be able to replace it - this does the job..Version: 4.0.1
✓ Most used app on my iPhone!I use Tap Forms every other day and pretty much can't live without it. I've used it for years now and am completely dependent! It's never let me down and I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND it as an essential app to own!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Fantastic!!I rarely have time to leave reviews but this developer definitely deserves recognition! Tap forms is easy to use and a fantastic tool for getting organized. I'm a real estate agent. Finding a single app that offers everything I need to track showings, date & times for appointments, lock box codes, creating alerts, tracking milage, etc. is next to impossible. Tap Forms allows me to easily create my own forms for achieving all of the above and more. I love having flexibility to customize forms any way I want. This is one app amongst TONS that I've tried that is actually worth buying. Finally, the developer takes wonderful care of customers. There's obviously pride that goes into this development and it shows. Great work!.Version: 3.9.1
✓ Very happy Bento to Tapform userI was an happy Bento user but since they are no longer supporting it and it doesn’t seem to work well, if at all on Yosemite, I started using Tapforms. Great program. It does almost all of what Bento does and I find it a bit more flexible for set up and forms. It’s not as user friendly as Bento but very, very close. I have it on 2 Mac’s, my iPad and iPhone and all sync well together. I’ve had one issue and Brendan responded quickly, while in vacation no less, and helped me resolve the issue. I have quite a few databases within Tapforms, all brought over neatly from Bento, using the built in Bento import. You can print out all your forms within a database, you just have to select them all. I saw something didn’t think you could do that so wanted to clear that up. Overall, I’m very happy and hope to use this for a long time..Version: 3.9.4
✓ Fantastic App!!!!!This App Has Everything You Need For Creating Functional Databases, Game Lists, Home or Work Inventory etc, it Replaces A Lot of Separate Apps and Saves You Money!!! Customer Service Is Very Good An Essential Purchase..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Best DB for iPhone I can find:Since purchasing my iPhone 3GS (still using it) I have been wanting a DB program. Gave Bento a go, but for me it was not a good fit. After reading about Tap Forms I tried the lite version; I was so impressed I purchased their full iPhone version. Prior to using Tap Forms my data was contained within numerous Numbers spreadsheets. After purchasing Tap Forms all those individual spreadsheets have been converted to forms within Tap Forms. My information is much easier to located than opening individual spreadsheets. A bonus is the developer is very quick with responses; most often within hours. He is most courteous and helpful. If there was one quibble with the lite version is its limited functionality. My suggestion is to provide full functionality that times out after a set number of days. Customers can then better see the full potential of Tap Forms. __________________________ Updated: Tap Forms is easy to use and also quite powerful. In the past for managing data I kept the data in separate spreadsheets. Moving to Tap Forms bringing in all my data management spreadsheets into a proper database has made data much easer to get to and manage. If you are a former Bento user you will love Tap Forms finding it has more features and more power. RicD.Version: 3.9.2
✓ PerfectI wanted an App that I can use to keep an inventory of spare parts at work that I have across mutiple stores in my city. TapForms works perfectly for this application. I have been able to create a form to store all the data I require. I've also included photos which is handy for remembering what each item is. I've also put all my passwords and bank details into the same App so everything is together. Very handy .Version: 0
✓ Perfect app got listsOne of the most polished iPhone apps I've seen. This app knows what it's meant to do, and it does it well. I tried Listomni after reading some other reviews, but it's nowhere near as good as Tap Forms for simple recording of lists. Highly recommend this app!.Version: 0
✓ WowI have been using this data base program for about a week now and can honestly say it is the best of its kind I have ever used. Over the last year I have purchased a large number of data base apps hoping to find the one that will be powerful yet flexible and easy to use, but every time I downloaded one that looked promising there would always be a problem, either very restrictive or not very powerfull. Tap Forms is now my number one app on my iphone and is already bulging with a variety of data from standard on board forms to imported .csv files. Well done Tap Forms..Version: 0
✓ Exactly What I Needed!!Finally, an app that lets you tailor it to your personal needs. Although they have only one Tap Form to buy, I'm sure that there are hundreds of versions currently running. If you can't find a form to suit your exact needs ( and there a lot of excellent pre formated forms readily available) you can simply modify one or even better yet, create your own. Wow!! An app thet lets you create your own app. Keep up the good work and keep the updates coming..Version: 0
✓ Absolutely brilliantUp until the latest update, this app was pretty basic, and not suitable for my use. But version 1.7 is superb. Every field type , every sorting option, every display option I could possibly need. The support is great too. I emailed the developer with a suggestion for a new feature and he emailed me straight back to explain that it was already there, I just hadn't figured out how to do it. And that's the other thing, you discover so many customisable features that this app replaces loads of other apps. You don't need SplashID or 1Password because Tap Forms is password protected. You don't need AirSharing because Tap Forms can view documents. You don't need a desktop app like Bento because Tap Forms inputs/outputs standard CSV files so you can dreate databases in a simple spreadsheet program and import them. Definitely one of my best ever App Store purchases. A well deserved 5 stars.Version: 0
✓ Perfect applicationAdded my companies telephone directory of 8k records and the access is instant. Used another db and it took ages. Even created a home inventory with pictures for insurane purposes. It's replaced 3 apps so far. I'm sure that number will increase over time..Version: 0
✓ Had this since 2010I originally got this free on my 2 gen iPod in 2010. I only have that iPod to this day because of this app (albeit an older version) and use it almost daily. I have so much faith in Tap Forms that I purchased it on my new phone, with a new account..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Second Review, Love it more than everI now use tap forms on my Mac, iPad & iphone works great I have many databases, two of which have over 1000 records and they sync perfectly through iCloud. Support from tap forms is great too! Now I have purchased all the apps, I'm going to say I don't think they are charging enough, up the price guys I want you to make plenty of money, so you can push the apps even further..Version: 4.0.5
✓ Excellent AppAt last! A comprehensible database program! It makes keeping and sorting data very easy indeed. Once acquainted with the role of Form, Field and Record, the app is fairly intuitive. The ability to e-mail records is particularly useful, though I encourage the developers to include data that has been sought from link-to files with the e-mail too. The Check Mark option doesn't display it's results quite as expected either. Nevertheless, this is a very powerful tool, and I commend it with fervour..Version: 2.0.2
✓ A must haveDefinitely the best database application on the market for iPhone. Bravo !!! Customer service second to none. !!!!.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Simply the BestI am a confessed appaholic with more than 300 downloaded apps and my favourite is Tap Forms. It is a remarkably flexible allowing anyone to create their own do lists, file systems, address lists etc. easily. Time an again I have downloaded an app just to find that I can easily forumulate the Tap Form Organiser to replicate the app and do an even better job. If you have only one app on your iphone download Tap Forms. Do it now. Colin - Victoria BC.Version: 3.9.1
✓ Absolutely Fantastic!!!Every time i run the app i think of one more way to use it! After umming and aaaing weather to buy it decided i should and its really been great. The app is so useful in many ways and you can apply the forms / records or databases to almost any situation! If you are thinking about buying it.. just do it... it is probably one of the apps that i use most (other than music of course).. more than twice a day! Buy it!.Version: 0
✓ Je suis en amour avecJ'utilise ce logiciel chaque jour ... Extrêmement pratique et simple d'utilisation. Le développeur a le souci de faire des mises à jour intelligentes. Je te le recommande fortement pour utiliser et construire une base de données fiable et peu complexe. J'adore pouvoir synchroniser simplement les données avec mon portable via mon mac..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Excellent and easy to UseFor me this is one of a small set of apps that really make my iPod Touch become an invaluable tool as well as a fun music and game toy. It is very easy to set up with an excellent ability to either use the built in forms or, as I have done, apply small customisations to them to match what you need. I have my family's life stored in here with such things as passport details, bank accounts, cards, insurance policiies, restaurants we like and so on. The security is also excellent with it allowing a unique PIN that can be set to always be needed whenever entering the app. As you can imagine very highly recommended by me as something I use almost every day..Version: 3.0
✓ Great support!!Switched phones and was working with the developer to get my data back. He kept working with me until we got there!! I appreciated his help because I’ve used this app for a long time and needed the data. He was tenacious!.Version: 4.0.9
✓ Just brilliantI've been carrying around a seven page printed Excel spreadsheet summary of all of my books for years. Now I have an Iphone, I bought Tap Forms and I now have a brilliant database in my pocket, with colour thumbnails of my bookcovers. It means I can check whether I've already got a book before I end up buying a duplicate. I'd recommend this product to anyone who wants to keep track of anything. The ease at which you can design a new database and start using it, is just amazing. No manual is required, it is just so intuitive! It uses all of the nice features and interface that we've come to like about the Iphone. Its not crashed and delivers everything I want from a fully customisable database - buy it now! Keep up the good work!.Version: 0
✓ Killer appThis is a very comprehensive, flexible app that pretty much allows you to create any list or form you can imagine. With a built-in voice recorder for voice notes, a prompt to camera and many basic forms already availble to get you going, this is excellent value for money. Highly recommended..Version: 0
✓ Great, lots of featuresThis is a simple database creation software that lets you customise forms to fill in data. My favourite part is you can choose lots of types of fields in the form, like text, number, pick from a list, even files..Version: 3.9.1
✓ Fantastic!I use the app almost everyday. It’s incredibly functional because you build it the way you want it. I wish I’d had this years ago! One hiccup: Photo field on forms isn’t showing completely, it looks like the cell margins are half the height of what they should be. Only for photo field without a photo uploaded yet..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Amazingly flexible and easy to useTapForms is a great application with a wide range of standard forms and the ability to create new or edit existing templates to suit your own purposes. The application is simple to use whilst offering a lots of functionality. I use it all the time for a variety of purposes from tracking the holiday dates I've booked to recording details of the individual projects I'm working on..Version: 0
✓ Excellent Full Featured Database App and very responsive DeveloperI have been using Tap Forms for a while now and it keeps getting better. The Touch ID access is one of the most recent additions I like. I switched from another database a few years ago because Tap Forms had a built in GPS location function that was worth the switch on its own. The ease of creating a new database and the ease of editing it on the fly is so easy. I use it every day to track many things in my life and I wouldn't be without it. Support when needed is almost instant which is much appreciated these days. With Tap Forms it's almost like being a programmer who can make their own apps to do any varied number of things. iCloud backup is also great as I also have the Mac Desktop version so it keeps both in sync. I am still discovering things this App can do. Apps like this should cost a lot more than it does so it's pretty much a no-brainer. Just get it, you won't be disappointed..Version: 3.9.2
✓ AMAZING for creative visual peopleI was actually the coproducer of the group Enigma and have discovered my ultimate Songwriting and Ideacollection tool in TAP FORMS. The combination of visual listing, audio recording and universal grouping makes it perfect for visual people like me. I can remember songideas by an image I take, or an icon I add. Just like my good old paper notebook but with all the tech - features from today's computers. then I record a quick melody i have in my head and add it to the lyric idea. Finally I can even add a keyword to find it later amongst the 1000s of ideas and rate it with 1-5 stars or as a favourite to be able to create a 'best off list'. Also the FTP-backup function by just pressing a button is amazing and so simple. This has become my Nr.1 iPhone App - now residing in the upper left corner of page 1. It's a perfect example of merging a tech gadget with a very helpful tool speeding up essential works you have to achieve in every day life. WELL DONE!.Version: 0
✓ Longtime UserI've used this app since it was first made available on the app store. I find as useful now as I did then..Version: 4.0.4
✓ Works flawlessly!I just switched from Bento on my Mac to Tap Forms and I wish I'd made the change sooner. Great apps. Excellent user interface..Version: 3.5
✓ Brilliant AppUsed this for nearly 4 years, now on iPhone 6; stores everything and anything. Worth spending a bit of time to understand features - but easy to use straight away. Has had several enhancements over the year. I would recommend - I use it virtually everyday. On 2 occasions I got stuck, I emailed for support and had pretty much instant replies (that's a first really for any app or software I've bought)..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Thank you for your responseDeveloper responds to issues Previous review: Pricing makes no sense The upgrade bundle costs the same as the regular app. Totally pointless as it does not offer any discount for upgrading! So won't buy until there is a discount for previous customers..Version: 4.0.7
✓ It's awesomeThis is one of those apps that you use everyday and you take the functionality for granted. But when you step back and think about what it does, you realize how lost you would be without. It keeps me organized. And I know it's secure..Version: 3.9.2
✓ By far the best productivity app I have used on the ipodSo well laid out and easy to use with all the functionality I was looking for (for entering data on the go). The only thing it doesnt do that would be helpful is ability to set default values for the pick lists..Version: 0
✓ Truly handy & easy to useIf you have a need for a database app - this is the one. I have been using Tap Forms for at least a couple of years and keep finding new uses for it. Regular updates keep everything working smoothly..Version: 3.8.2
✓ Form for every occasion in my pocketI have many types of interactions with customers and colleagues that I need to plan and record. This tool is so valuable as it increases my effectiveness. I have created templates (forms) for several situations and embedded prompts for guiding the planning and information gathering. Use cases I have are: planning & recording management meetings, presentation scaffolding, customer business analysis. I find this is an easy to use tool for entering information and a fantastic user interface for form creation..Version: 2.1.13
✓ Absolutely Brilliant, Fantastic - One Very Impressed CustomerFantastic application, feature rich and incredible. Visually stunning and definately integrates well with the overall visual appeal of the iPhone / iPod Touch. Support was absolutely incredible, and as it has already been said - instant! Version 1.6 has all of the export / backup features working perfectly! Best money I've spent!.Version: 0
✓ Love this app!I was a Bento database user before and was desperate to find something similar once their product was discontinued. I was able to migrate all my data with related databases!! No need to spend untold hours becoming a database BUILDER. Just transfer the data and continue being a database USER. Thank you TapForms!!!.Version: 4.0.5
✓ A lot of potential but still some bugsGreat product with a lot of potential. very difficult to import data, I still have not successeded as it keeps crashing. I wish this is fixed or an example is published as I have a lot of data to import. It would be nice to also have a java version that can run on both windows or Mac platforms. this is important if iphone is lost.Version: 0
✓ Tap Forms: indispensable information manager.This app has saved me an incredible amount of space in my wallet - I no longer have to carry around a stack of points or membership cards. I've input a significant amount of information into Tap Forms and filed away the originals. Navigation and data entry is made incredibly easy due to an intuitive and well thought out design. The convenience this app provides makes it an exceptional value - it is certainly one of the most used apps on my iPhone..Version: 0
✓ ExcellentI'm sure I've owned this app for around 5 years now and I am totally amazed that I'm still getting free updates to this excellent database application. I originally bought the app to monitor my Royal Pythons' feeding, pooing and shedding times. I've since used it to store passwords; membership numbers, license keys, most recently my new baby's feed times and length (and which boob!), vehicle service and MOT schedules (mine and the wife's), some login details and some important codes, like for my car stereo. This are what I'm storing now (securely and backed up to iCloud) - over the years I've stored and deleted other things. Just want to thank the developers for a great database app that they've kept updated all this time..Version: 3.9.1
✓ Best database app out thereI paid for 5 apps before I found the one that works!.Version: 2.1.7
✓ Superb database!Tap Forms is a carefully designed, flexible, flat-file database application, offering astonishing freedom to the user. Forms may be designed to your own specification, with a good range of field types from which to choose. The import/export facility is flexible and powerful, even allowing the entire form design process to be performed on a pc, using a cleverly structured csv header to define the field types. The on-screen design (eye-candy, if you must) has been paid special attention so that the aesthetics are the equal of the engineering. It is the iPod/iPhone database application for which I have been waiting for quite some time! Add to the above two further plus points: the developer is extremely positive in his reaction to bug reports and positive criticism (all the questions I raised after buying release 1.5 were fully addressed in version 1.6); he is also very swift and attentive in his 'customer care'. Designing a clever, tidy and effective program is one thing; having the after-sales service and pride in delivering an ever-improving product is quite another and gives long-term confidence to potential users of the application. This application enjoys these features to excess. I really do wish that I could give it more than five stars! Open the Champagne!.Version: 0
✓ Great datastore and customised trackerI use Tap Forms for nearly everything, insurance tracking of assets, tracking favourite grocery products, wallet audit, loyalty cards. A truly justified app for people on-the-go. It loses 1 star only because I am unable to export photos taken with the inbuilt camera along with the associated data I've saved. If it could export to XLS with thumbnails or images intact (instead of a textual reference to the unique photo) this would be a truly sublime app. A must have though regardless!.Version: 2.1.13
✓ Just what I neededI was looking for a neat, easy dayabase to catalogue the trees & plants in my garden. TapForms is perfect. It's easily customisable and has a wide variety of field types available - even photographs. I absolutely love it. As soon as I've added a new plant it is synced with my iMac. I was using Bento and the import of a different database wasn't perfect, but the latest update has fixed those problems. Thanks a million for such a useful app..Version: 3.8.1
✓ Excellent supportRecently upgraded my phone and TF (original version) wouldn’t launch. I thought it was IOS incompatibility but great support from Brendan sorted it..Version: 4.0.9
✓ Great App, Great Value, Great SupportI had my first Tap Forms database up and running in minutes, including a 2900 record import. Fast, easy and has many features that I'll get to as time goes by. I had one quick question, and it was answered in less than 5 minutes! Outstanding value at A$2.49 - if you read this when the price has gone back up -buy it anyway. There are many average apps, we should support the excellent one like this, particularly when there's outstanding support too..Version: 0
✓ ImpressedThis is a very well put together and practical application, with use well beyond the preset forms. It would be great if it had warnings for when certain dates (e.g., insurance renewals) were coming up?.Version: 0
✓ Switched from BentoAlthough lacking the brand power behind Filemaker's Bento, Tap Forms seems a far better product. It's very customisable, clear and efficient, and all importantly, provides easy import and export (one of the big drawbacks I found with Bento). It doesn't quite have the simplicity, elegance and polish of something like Cultured Code's “Things”, but is a robust app and well worth the money. Looking forward to seeing it develop over time..Version: 0
✓ PGStill waiting for the ability to backup onto my windows desktop I don't want iCloud and I want the ability to input data from the desktop Are actually going to provide this as people have been asking for this for a long time and you still have not come up with anything and yet you have come up with the iCloud sync quickly and this requirement came a out alot later than the desktop version requirement I hope you are not stringing people along Thanks.Version: 3.0
✓ Great potentialI bought this app because I needed a way to organize contacts within my accounts (main contacts). I really like the way this app allows a complete customization of new forms to act as a flat-file database. The pre-made samples are also a nice touch. I think in a very short period of time, this app will replace a number of smaller apps already on my device. So far no crashes or major issues. I highly recommend this app for the following users: Sales reps that need a way to organize multiple contacts within a larger organization Users that find too many apps on their device and want to streamline. i.e. lockbox, isort, etc all into one app Track tasks, create lists, sort important data, daily journal, etc. I would like to see a sync option and or a desktop companion (mac please) that make data input and analyzing easier..Version: 0
✓ Record everything you want!This app is just amazing :). I can record everything I want and I have all the information with me. Since I fly a lot, I can save a lot of paper sheets and the data is much faster available: flying info, passport number, you name it ... The function I love most is the duplication of records, it's saving me lots and lots of time :) Thank you for the amazing app and for the more than fair price ....Version: 0
✓ Very cool application!Love this application. I can record about any kind of information on my iPod touch now while I'm out shopping, climbing, travelling, you name it. The problem I always have with bookkeeping is that I'm to lazy to enter the info later on with the MacBook Pro, so I love to have the Touch at hand, make an entry quickly, and have it there. And it has all kinds of fields that come in handy, it can do audio notes and attach a contact or a photo to the entry. Sweet! Just building my Running Log form and one for climbing. Can't wait for a sync feature, so I can sync the database with Numbers or other applications. Follow Up: Talked to the developer about the crashes that happen when a form entry was deleted - the update is already in review at Apple and he's waiting for it to be released..Version: 0
✓ Best database app !Simply put, it's the best in its category. Moving from Bento was a breeze. Support is both quick and very helpful. App is rich in functions..Version: 3.8.1
✓ Very GoodI dont normally write reviews for apps, but this one does deserve it, I have used a few different databases on my iphone & ipod touch, this is the best by far for keeping up to date with my customer list! One thing it could really do with though which other databases do have is a customer signature field type, if it had this, then this app would just about be perfect! Hope this gets put in on an update pretty soon!.Version: 0
✓ Good app, So versatile, excellent supportYou can use this app to record everything. It's so versatile although you have to play around to fully get out of it. Recently the app log me out and say invalid password and I couldnt access to data for two months (lesson: make sure you have some backup). Later on a new patch come out and fix this. The support team is helpful and reply so quickly. Overall I m happy with it..Version: 2.1.11
✓ Very Impressive ApplicationGreat database with many field types, including photos. Support was virtually immediate and it is excellent value. I will be using this on a daily basis. I love the ability to import spreadsheet files, backup the entire database and easily add fields to the forms..Version: 0
✓ Could not function w/o this app!The ONLY time I had a hitch with this app, I wrote an email to the creator and he responded within hours with the solution. He’s a solo developer. I think some of these low reviews are unfair. I really LOVE this app and use it for everything!.Version: 4.0.9
✓ Excellent app, highly usefulI've used a number of iPhone applications since getting my iPhone this year, and out of all of them this one has proven the best. I should mention that I've upgraded to OS 3.0 and TapForms is very stable so far. When it comes to data collection, TapForms is outstanding and vary easy to use once you get over the slight learning curve. Although this is still a flat file database system, the pick list feature makes repetitive data entry nice and quick. I really like the built-in ftp server feature as this makes backing up the data much more hastle free compared to other applications. As an online retailer, I have to keep a databse of items shipped and as the iPhone is always in my pocket, Tapforms has made keeping keeping shipping information a breeze. Thanks Guys!.Version: 0
✓ Great App!This is an amazing application for those who have a lot of information that they need on the go. Endless uses for everyday life and work!.Version: 0
✓ The missing software for my iPhone being my complete mobile solutionI just bought this a couple of days ago..... waiting patiently for Apple to get their 'stuff' together and put version 1.5 on the app store.... in its current version (1.0), it has a great UI, and is very useful for data that is fairly flat - which describes 95% of the data I want to carry with me..... with the 1.5 update, this will be an awesome database. The developer has put a lot of thinking into this and I expect it to be THE app to have if you need any type of database or list type manager ! Update !!!!!! I just updated to 1.5 - WOW ! just the ability to import and export files makes this SO much better.... now I can create my dbs in Numbers or Excel and import them. Or us export to back things up. I did find one problem..... when I exported the data, it added a space to each letter as it exported..... easy enough to remove the spaces with Numbers, but still a hassle. (Hint to those that need to remove the extra spaces... Replace all ' ' (3 spaces) with some characters such as '!@#', then Replace all spaces with '' (nothing).... then Replace '!@#' with ' ' (1 space)..... this will get rid of all the extra spaces).Version: 0
✓ Tap FormI wasn't sure I really had much use for this app at first, and due to the price I thought twice about it before purchasing. But something with this many good reviews has got to be worth having. Initially I got a bit confused with it to be honest, but I think that's just me. Now I've got my head around the fundamentals, this really is one clever piece of software. The preset forms are really useful, but being able to interact with the database and customise your own details, and then see them all in one handy list, is even more rewarding. It's a real "Hey, look what I've created!" moment. Well done to the developer(s). Can't wait for any little tweaks you have up your sleeve..Version: 0
✓ Excellent Database App for the iPhone/iPod touchI have been looking for a handheld database that was elegant, flexible, and reasonably powerful. This is it. One particular function I was looking for was the ability to fill in a form on my iPod touch, then email the contents of the form. This app does this with no effort. The support for various field types is excellent - I am able to time and date-stamp a new record with a couple of taps. Tap Forms features: A URL field which launches a built-in browser. A contacts field that lets you select from your contacts. A picture field that works with your photo library or the built-in camera. Even a voice memo field type is available. Reasonable support for backups (independent of the normal iTunes backup facility) is provided, as is support for import and export via CSV files. It even supports an FTP server and local file viewing similar to Air Sharing. The developer seems to be responsive and the product is being actively developed. I get the impression that some of the earlier versions may have been a bit rough around the edges, but version 1.6 has been flawless for me. Overall, I recommend this product highly - the learning curve appears reasonable for non-technical users, but it has a lot of depth for those who want to use it in more complex ways..Version: 0
✓ I luv it!!!!It's nice, simple and powerful, I use it frequently ! I recommend it!!!!.Version: 3.5.1
✓ The best productivity app on iOSI've used this now for multiple research projects as a data collection tool. Can't recommend it highly enough, seriously it's saved us countless hours and dollars. Also, best support for any software I've ever owned, bar none..Version: 2.1.8
✓ Best 7 dollars spentThis app is really powerful! It is also amazingly flexible and I have also found it really intuitive to use. I am using it to track my diet in hope to find food sensitivity trends, but now I am thinking about other uses.. Just wanted pay my regards for such an awesome product for such a small amount of money!.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Trip logI created a trip record which includes linked files for flights, hotels, other transport, activities, key photos anad a rating. It works perfectly and more conveniently than a non-modifiable app. Very pleased..Version: 2.1.13
✓ The best!Now this is an awesome app. You can completely customize any kind of form. You can password-protect. It's got a great UI - very easy to use; looks good. AND it's been totally stable on my 3G. I've got only one criticism - the viewing screen needs some options. Right now all the entries for a particular form are displayed alphabetically, and only the first field shows. It would be so much better if you could have more than one field displayed, especially if you could choose which fields to show. Filters would be even better! And a suggestion... how about radio buttons or drop down lists? Hmm, and more icons to choose from? But these are just details - overall the program is terrific. I've got lots of apps; this is one of my favorites. I've got about 40 different databases on it - I use it every day..Version: 0
✓ Nice appDoes it's job perfectly. Within minutes I was able to organize all my daily paperwork for my job. Nice I have another reason now to have my iPhone in my hand all day long. Sweet job great idea..Version: 0
✓ A must have AppTap Forms is brilliant. I have tried a lot of apps to catalogue my various possessions and private data; none seem to do the job and some of them even corrupt data. A lot of them get you to use their online site for backup and restore, how crazy is that, to send your confidential info to some stranger. Tap Forms shines out as an exceptionally well thought out and easy to use app; it has a great range of templates with the ability to customize all fields to suit your own needs; not only backup and restore but import and export to your computer. I only hope they will bring out a desktop application soon..Version: 0
✓ TapForms database reviewWell it might not be the most intuitive App, but I guess that is because of my background in computers as much as anything, but what it lacks in that area is more than made up for by the feedback with the developer. NEVER have I had such a quick response to my moans and requests - all of which have been answered and acted upon. This is one really useful app. I now carry all my data around with me for instant access direct from my iPhone, I can call a contact (nothing new there) get directions to a client but most importantly I can see almost the exact same data as in my complex Filemaker database at the office - without any security issues. The data is not freely on the web, and is password protected, twice on the iPhone. If necessary you can have deeper encryption if you want it as well. There are issues with the way the forms (layouts) are presented and the way you interact with them, but it is simple to learn and within an hour or so I had built my database and transferred the 3000+ records to my iPhone from the Filemaker on my Mac with very little effort. For those who need a database app however small, or complicated, or secure - look no further this one does it all..Version: 0
✓ Best Database app for iOS - highly recommended +++Tap Forms is the best, most customisable personal database app for iOS (and OS X too). The app supports FTP and Dropbox import/export as well as syncing with other devices via iCloud - which actually works! Tap Forms supports numerous different field types including encrypted and calculated fields (which allows you to perform some basic automatic calculations using the values of other fields on your form e.g. "[Total] - [Deposit]". The developer is very responsive and helpful and provides great support via email and Tap Forms own forums. Highly recommended!.Version: 4.0.7
✓ Amazing appFun to use. Takes a little time to understand how its put together, well for me anyway as I am not database wise. But in a few minutes you are up and running. It’s flexible and you can use it for anything from simple recurring lists to all the data you need in one place for a school..Version: 4.0.7
✓ Worth the Price -- Shows Great PromiseTapfroms works great! It's a flat file database that is very easy to use, but surprisingly versatile. I plan to use Tapforms for storage of passwords, keep information about frequent flier numbers, insurance information, listing of wineries and wines and countless other things. There are a couple of drawbacks that resulted in a rating of 4 rather than 5 stars, but the developer has said that he's working on them. The primary drawback is the inability to import or sync. Without an import/sync feature, it takes forever to input data because of the iPhone/iPod Touch keyboard. The major missing field type is the ability to select from a list -- this is also important because of the keyboard limitation. The ability to link to a record in another form would make the program extremely powerful. I like this program a lot..Version: 0
✓ Exceptional feature set and support for OSX and iOS.The developer has managed to offer superbly reliable and feature laden products for Mac OS X and iOS that are easy to use and sync efficiently. Support is directly by the developer and simply outstanding..Version: 3.9.1
✓ ExcellentReally useful app. Works very well and is pretty simple to use but also powerful..Version: 4.0.7
✓ An App Store gemI stumbled across this app when looking for something to track some random information. It's since earned a place in my dock as a go to app for all sorts of stuff. It's like yojimbo for ios. The app is constantly under development and the developer is very responsive..Version: 3.9.2
✓ Great, but could use more search optionsEasy to set up and use, great for most basic non-relational database requirements. Good interface, clean and pleasant visual appearance, good stability. Field type options cover most things you need. Data entry is quick and easy. Search is simple - entire database, all fields, with no options. Could benefit by having a second advanced search option where values in specific fields could be specified to get more accurate and useful search results. Import and export option is great, and I like the bonus feature whereby it can take the place of many of those file storage/transfer apps out there on the iPhone. Makes it's cost even more worthwhile. Good work - look forward to future updates..Version: 0
✓ Flexible portable data baseExcellent app for doing custom databases and storing general info. I use it as a library app (it scans bar codes), lists, passwords, etc. It is secure and has excellent support. Regular updates improve features. Have been using it for 3+ years..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Wow - UnbelievableIf you have used or are using Bento - have a look at Tap Forms. It is not a replacement but an upgrade. Some formatting issues with Bento transfer. However, it is unbelievably easy. The Mac version can cope with pdf files. However, the iPhone and iPad versions can not. So I had to rescan and convert these files (time consuming). The iCloud sync is a deal winner. It was glitchy to set up but now works like a dream. Please download this app so the Tap forms (solo) team will keep supporting and updating. It really is that good - well done!.Version: 3.9.2
