Data Manager Classic
Personal database manager
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Database Manager is the personal database app for your own data — books, cocktail recipes, birthdays, car expenses, credit cards, travel packing lists, whatever you need.
You define the tables, fields and relationships yourself — no spreadsheet hacks, no cloud account required, no ads. Everything stays on your device.
FEATURES
• 16 field types: Text, Number, Date, Time, Checkbox, Combobox, Link, Image, Location, Rating and more
• Unlimited databases, multiple tables per database
• Relational references between tables
• Sort, group, filter, totals and group subtotals
• Per-field display settings (visibility, color, font size, order)
• CSV import / export — compatible with the original data format
• Password protection and optional per-field encryption
• Image attachments inside records
• Custom background image and theme per database
• Built for large datasets (tested with 5,000 entries)
19 EXAMPLES INCLUDED
Books, movies, contacts, birthdays, bookmarks, car expenses, cocktails, shopping lists, credit cards, travel packing and more — ready to use as templates or just to explore the app.
YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU
No sign-up, no account, no tracking. Optionally encrypt individual fields with a passphrase you choose.
HERITAGE
Database Manager is a direct port of the original webOS app "Database Manager" (VivaLV Software, 2012), rebuilt natively for iPhone and iPad.
Data Manager Pro
• A set of tools for working with your data, unlocked by a one-time purchase —
no subscription. Try it free for 14 days first; the trial starts only when
you choose to start it.
• What you build with Pro keeps working without it: formulas keep
calculating, roll-ups keep adding up, reminders keep arriving, saved views
keep applying. Only creating and editing them needs Pro.
What Pro adds
• Formula fields: calculate from other fields, such as {Net} * 1.19, an age
or the days between two dates — or fill in a text template
• Roll-ups: summarise the entries that point at an entry. The total of all
expenses for a car, how many sessions a member attended, the date of the
last service
• Statistics: bar, pie and line charts over a table
• Saved views: keep search, sort, grouping and filter under a name and switch
with a tap
• Filters that combine conditions in AND / OR groups, with dates such as
"this month" or "in the past"
• Reminders for date fields, once or every year
• Print a list or save it as a PDF
Also new
• Back up all databases: one file with every database, its entries, images
and links, kept wherever you like. It restores on iPhone and on Android.
In the Preferences, no Pro needed
• A database shared with its data keeps the links between its tables
• Monthly goals: a target for the current calendar month next to the total
• Field names in a table are now unique. A rename to a name that is already
taken is refused, with a note saying why
• CSV export includes the results of formula fields and roll-ups
Fixes
• Importing CSV data no longer crashes when a table has two fields with the
same name
• "Today" follows your time zone. An entry created just after midnight no
longer gets yesterday's date
• A shared database definition keeps sort order, totals and unique rules on
the right fields, also after fields were deleted
• Help and several dialogs — password, sort, totals, edit field — now
appear fully in German when the app is set to German
• Averages with thousands separators now display correctly in German:
1.234,50 instead of 1,234,50
