Description

Tap Forms 5 is the digital filing cabinet for life’s scattered details. Now with Scripting and Siri Shortcuts support!

Accounts, recipes, expenses, inventory — life is full of things that we don’t want to forget or misplace. Tap Forms 5 helps you organize all kinds of things in one place — secure, searchable, and accessible on your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch (Mac app sold separately).

How can one app organize everything? Because not only can you use and customize the more than 30 built-in templates but you can create your own “forms” for inputting any kind of information, even if that information includes pictures, doodles, audio recordings, calculations, file attachments, ratings, or even links to other forms. This makes it almost like building your very own customized organization app.

• Capture your way: Snap a picture, type or scribble some text, record an audio note, scan a barcode — there are 23 different types of information that can be captured with Tap Forms

• Organize your way: Create and design custom forms exactly how you want to for optimal organization. Get started with one of our ready-to-go form templates, or easily make a custom one from scratch with our integrated form building tools.

• Store confidential data with confidence: Tap Forms' security settings let you optionally require a password or a Touch ID scan, and even auto-lock when idle for a custom period of time. Using AES encryption, you can rest easy knowing your data is safe and secure.

• Import, Export, Share: It’s easy to import your data from existing files, so getting started is a breeze. Import your data from text, CSV, Bento and more. One-tap exporting allows you to share with Mac, Windows, and Linux users.

Cataloguing Artworks with Tap Forms 5

As the descendants of a fine Ontario artist, Bertha M. Ingle ( www.berthamayingle.ca ), and as custodians of many of her artworks, we have a desire to catalogue all her works that we know of, along with a wide range of detailed information about each work. Tap Forms 5 has proven ideal for this purpose.

What we need is a reliable, powerful, flexible, intuitively easy-to-use database program that can work with a wide range of information. There are, first, the fundamental parameters of any artwork such as the medium used, the support material, the dimensions, the presence or absence of a signature, whether framed, etc. But as our project has progressed there have been many additional details to include: aspects such as identification of the subject locale or persons depicted, the history of conservation work, date and locations of exhibition showings, provenance, likely date, publication in external documents, etc, etc.

Tap Forms 5 can handle the large volume of information; it is easy to expand; it allows the number of fields to be extended or their contents expanded when necessary; and there is a wide range of formats in which information can be recorded (check boxes, radio buttons, tables, attached documents, text notes, and more). Especially crucial for artworks is the ability to include one or more thumbnail images of each work, and to add to these as works are conserved or newly framed (keeping the ‘before’ as well as the ‘after’ images).

With the known works by Ingle numbering in the hundreds, finding particular works could be a challenge. The ability in Tap Forms 5 to perform instant searches based on any of the database information has proved invaluable many times in making searches efficient and accurate.

Tap Forms 5 has proven an indispensable tool for our project. Its ability to run on several different platforms makes our database portable and accessible in different contexts. Technical support has been exemplary, with every question or issue addressed promptly and successfully, every suggestion treated seriously. Highly recommended!

Version 5.3

Long time user of TF, on Mac, IPad, and iPhone. I use it for fairly simple household databases. Keeping track of our medications, hobbies like coffee roasting, wine making, etc.

I started as a complete newbie using Apples’ Bento product, then when Apple stopped supporting it I found Tapforms and switched to it. Over time it has become way more powerful than Bento was. You can keep it simple or make it complex depending on your needs.

Brendan, the developer, has always offered expert, timely, and useful support. Something that has helped me numerous times over the years as I explore new uses.

I highly recommend this app. Well worth the money.
