Swift · UIKit · Kotlin · ViewsDBMan is the oldest code I still actively maintain. It shipped as an iPad database browser in Objective-C, and bringing it forward has been an exercise in deciding what deserves to be rewritten and what was right the first time. Version 2.0 is the answer: Swift on iOS, a ground-up Kotlin version on Android.
It opens SQLite files on the device and connects to MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL servers, including hosted ones like Aurora, Neon, PlanetScale, and Supabase, with TLS and an SSH tunnel when the server sits behind one. Saved passwords and keys stay on the device, locked behind your fingerprint, face, or PIN.
You get the schema — tables, views, indexes, triggers — a grid you can actually read on a small screen, a SQL editor with highlighting and autocomplete, and bookmarks for the queries you keep retyping. On a tablet it becomes a proper workspace: a sidebar, tabs, an inspector, and an ER diagram.
