What is General DB? Description of General DB

General DB is a general-purpose database app that lets you record information quickly and easily.

Try our FREE Private DB app to get a feel for General DB before you buy.

For example, if you have a bottle collection, you could make a table with these fields: Date Acquired, Bottle Type, Bottle Origin, Shape, Notes. Then whenever you add a new bottle to your collection, you can add a row to the table describing it.

If you want to track visits to different vacation sites, you can make a table with fields for the Date Visited, Location, Description, and Attraction. As you visit the sites, you can add corresponding rows to your table.

After you add rows to your tables, they will be:
* Searchable
* Sortable
* Selectable

Many apps are too specific to a subject, but General DB is flexible enough to handle many, many needs, such as:
- Inventories
- Customer info
- Membership lists
- Tracking Logs
- Accounts
- and many more !

No database knowledge is required to use this app, but you will pick some up as you go!

For power users:

General DB allows easy data entry into a full-fledged SQLite database. To do so, it enhances it with field formats.

The field formats supported are Text, Number, Date, Time, Duration, Location, Photo, Barcode, Raw, Picker, and Lookup Table. There are convenient buttons next to some fields for easier input.

For administrators or IT manager, you can create a master database of reference information that you don't want your users to modify. This master database can be published on the internet and either the Private DB app or General DB can download and view it.

General DB Pros

PERFECT!! NOTHING BETTER THAN THISGot everything I need!! clear, the way it is is JUST RIGHT!!! Thanks a bunch!!.HalfawakenVersion: 2.2

Super program - superb serviceAn excellent app. Set up is extremely straightforward, just a few simple clicks and you have a table with fields dedicated to your desired data type. This reduces the keystrokes required for data entry to a minimum. Flexible data sorting allows any hierarchy of fields to be selected. You can review data either by using a simple search query or, for a more complex enquiry, the basic and to some extent pre-programmed SQL input scheme provided. But best of all, the support is absolutely superb. This reviewer required some help in recalling the correct syntax for SQL. At least 6 e-mails were answered over the course of no more than a few hours (some of which seemed to be around 4 am at their end!). Thanks to their patience and persistence I now have full use of this little gem of a program. Two minor niggles. One is that only two fields of the database are shown on the summary screen - the other fields can be accessed via a tap on the entry. The font of the second field displayed is a little small. I thoroughly recommend this app and cannot praise too highly the support team..AbleBakerCharlieVersion: 1.12

General DB Cons

Not for advanced usersAnother description that lies. I have tried a lot of the database apps some good and some bad but this one is one of the most useless featureless apps i have downloaded despite the fact that the description boasts that it is so advanced for advanced users. Stop lying and change your description..Matt2776Version: 0

Non-relationalIf you're looking for a relational database, look elsewhere. This isn't it. Just a set of flat tables. May as well use Numbers..Callme1994Version: 2.0.1
