Overview

Features & Capabilities

SQL Server Mobile Client, also known as DB Compass for SQL Server, lets developers and database administrators access and manage Microsoft SQL Server databases directly from iPhone and iPad—without additional server setup.

Connect securely using TLS encryption or SSH tunnels, with support for Secure Enclave and U2F/FIDO NFC key authentication. Explore, filter, sort, edit, import, and export table data through an advanced data grid. Create and alter tables, view database objects, monitor jobs and sessions, review server statistics, and visualize relationships with the ER diagram viewer.

The app includes SQL query scripting with AI-assisted composition and execution plan analysis, plus integrations with OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, Ollama, and LM Studio. Additional features include iCloud Sync for SQL and JavaScript scripts, Shortcuts support, charts, widgets, blob previews, user privileges, and multi-format data import and export.

Tested with SQL Server 2012, SQL Server 2017, and Azure SQL Database. Premium features require a subscription or lifetime unlock.

User Reviews

Users praise the app for being easy to use and capable, with solid Azure SQL support and a responsive developer. Repeated concerns focus on unreliable Azure connectivity due to IP rules, the need to upgrade to Pro for full features, difficulties with importing .sql scripts from cloud storage, and a lack of accessible documentation. Overall, the app is valued for its feature set and responsiveness but faces reliability and licensing/documentation drawbacks.
Pros
  • Easy to use and full-featured mobile SQL client
  • Responsive performance with broad capabilities
  • Azure SQL Database connectivity that works when not blocked by IP rules
  • Developer is responsive and actively implements user-requested improvements
Cons
  • Azure SQL connectivity can be unreliable due to IP rules or other connectivity issues
  • Free version is limited; many features require a Pro upgrade (cost)
  • Problems opening/importing .sql script files from cloud storage
  • Documentation and official support are hard to find or lacking

Does everything I need, let’s me stop being preoccupied with data imaginings since I can get in and work with real queries when pulled away from my computer. Really fantastic app in terms of capabilities. Responsive, and despite older reviews saying otherwise, it’s connecting just fine to Azure SQL.
