However, due to the iPhone's relatively small 3.5-inch display, I had to do some horizontal scrolling in order to view all the columns. I was pleased to see that the layout hadn't been altered in the transfer, and that I could edit any of the fields. Tapping that icon lets you navigate through the open windows using a finger swipe.Īfter syncing a FileMaker Pro database table to the iPhone using iTunes' File Sharing feature, I tapped the file, causing it to open in full screen mode.
When you open a single file or multiple files, an icon appears in the upper-left corner that displays the number of open windows. That doesn't mean you're missing options tapping "Open File Browser" lets you access "Files on Device," "Recent Files," "Local Network Hosts," and "Add Host." This set up remains the same regardless of whether you hold the iPad in vertical or horizontal alignment. Instead of a two-column interface there's just one cohesive interface. Note: there's also an iPad version, FileMaker Go for iPad ($39.99, 3.5 stars).Īs FileMaker Go for iPhone operates on a device far smaller than an iPad, the interface is slightly different that its big brother's. FileMaker Go for iPhone has a few big limitations-you can't create new databases from scratch or synchronize files with those on your desktop-but it's an excellent app for keeping records at hand. This $19.99 app lets you view, edit, and search your FileMaker Pro 11 database tables (version 7 or later) via your iPad, so you can check inventory in the warehouse, manage event registration, or update a project status while away from your primary computer. If you don't feel like lugging a laptop, check out FileMaker Go for iPhone.
