What TablePlus is
TablePlus is a native graphical tool for managing databases on iOS, Linux, macOS, and Windows. It supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, Amazon Redshift, Oracle, CockroachDB, Snowflake, Cassandra, Redis, Vertica, and MongoDB. Users can edit rows, table structures, and query results inline. The SQL editor offers autocomplete, syntax highlighting, split panes, reformatting, favorites, history, and streaming results. Safe mode is intended to reduce mistakes on production databases, while SQL dump import and export support migration. Connections go directly to databases with end-to-end encryption. TablePlus says credentials, queries, history, favorites, and database content are not sent to its servers, and credentials remain on the device. Anonymous crash reports are collected, with an opt-out in preferences. A free plan and trial are available; paid plans start at $79/user. The trial limits users to two open tabs, two windows, and two advanced filters, and filters are unavailable in the free Windows version. Licenses include one year of updates; later upgrades require renewal.
