Nepenthes at Mac App Store analyse

Literally… you can only read what’s on the db. Not worth $2

I was not able to open and review MySQL database information and structure.

This should be renamed SQLite Reader, as that’s all it is. You can’t do anything with the databases, just see what they contain. In many cases that’s all you need to do, so the tool is not useless, and it’s "safe" in that you can’t mess up anything. Mac OS and apps store a lot of data in SQLite format, so such a tool can be handy. That said, nothing sets this one apart from any others. And it has some flaws. The app also cannot see .-files and .-directories, where a lot of SQLite databases are in the BSD subsystem. Nor any other normally hidden files - even if you use terminal commands to change the Finder preferences to make these folders visible (Google that, too). So, many SQLite databases on your system are not readily available to be viewed in this app. It trusts the basic Finder browsing APIs to give it a correct file list, and they do not. For it to be very useful even as a read-only app, it needs to more directly address the file system, the way more sophisticated apps do. E.g., Graphic Converter and BBEdit, apps I used daily, both see such files in their Open dialogs, while this one does not. You can work around this in various ways, the easiest of which is using Terminal to go to the folder containing the database and using the "open" command in Terminal to open it in the Finder, then drag-and-drop the database onto the app. For databases the Finder doesn’t see, either, use termininal to create a temporary symlink (alias) that the Finder and app can see. Note to previous clueless reviewer: This is an app for SQLite databases, not MySQL (or PostreSQL or any other) databases. They are not the same database format, they all just use SQL commands to retrieve data. You gave a 1-star review for no reason.

I’m not sure what this app for. The values that it showed was either 1 or 0. You cannot modify your read query. It is simply select * .. Neither can you do any sql on it. Such a waste of time
