Overview
FileMaker Go® runs FileMaker solutions on iPad and iPhone so you can easily manage and share information with your team anywhere you go. Check inventory in the warehouse, create invoices during client visits, perform inspections onsite, and more.
Build solutions using FileMaker Pro. Then use FileMaker Go to work with the data on an iOS device. See Connecting to Solutions. For example, you can add, modify, delete, find, and sort records; display data in Form View, Table View, and List View; view information in portals, tab panels, slide panels, and web viewers; scan bar codes; and perform scripts and other tasks.
To tailor solutions for use with FileMaker Go, see FileMaker Go Development Guide.
