FileMaker and Mobile Devices

FileMaker Pro, anytime, anywhere

We live in a world where continuous high-speed web connection from mobile devices is becoming practical. FileMaker, Inc. has invested in tools to help you access your FileMaker Pro data anywhere you go.

FileMaker Go

FileMaker Go for iPhone and FileMaker Go for iPad allow users to view, edit and search for FileMaker Pro records on the iPhone, iPod touch or iPad.

Data manipulation on FileMaker Go is similar to that of FileMaker Pro. It supports many FileMaker Pro features including Tab controls, Quick Find, Web Viewers, containers, portals and even most scripts. Plus it leverages many of the multi-touch gestures (tap, pinch, swipe, zoom, etc.) offered in the iOS platform.

Databases can be accessed remotely via FileMaker Server or FileMaker Pro or can be copied locally using File Sharing in iTunes. FileMaker Pro is needed to create or modify databases, but existing FileMaker Pro 7 (or later) files work readily on FileMaker Go.
