SQLPro Studio is now available on Android
Posted by Kyle Hankinson
SQLPro Studio has been a native database client on the Mac since 2015, and on iPhone, iPad and Windows for years now. Today it comes to the platform people have asked about most: SQLPro Studio is available on Google Play for Android phones and tablets.
Get SQLPro Studio on Google Play
It is a native Android app, written in Kotlin, with the same database drivers that power the desktop and iOS versions. There is no web view, no Java desktop runtime and no remote service in the middle. The app talks to your database directly, the same way it does on your Mac.

What is in the first release
The databases you already use. MySQL and MariaDB, PostgreSQL (including hosted services such as Amazon RDS, Azure and Heroku), Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and later, Oracle, MongoDB, SQLite and more. Connections are per engine, so a MySQL connection gets the MySQL editor and the MySQL tree, exactly as on the desktop.
A real query editor. Syntax highlighting with light and dark themes, autocompletion for tables and columns, several query tabs open at once, find and replace, automatic formatting, and the choice of running one statement, the current selection or the whole script.
Browse and edit, not just read. A context aware database tree gives quick access to tables, views, columns and indexes. Tap a table to see its rows, then edit, insert or delete rows directly in the grid. A table designer creates and alters tables, and results export to CSV, JSON or XML. Query history and saved favourites are there too.

Secure connections. SSH tunnelling with password or private key authentication, SSL and TLS options per engine, and a scan of the local network to find database servers. Connection details are stored in the Android keystore on the device. A biometric app lock (fingerprint or face) keeps the app closed to anyone else who picks up your phone.
Sample databases built in. Not near your own server? The app ships with sample connections so you can explore the editor, the tree and the grid without setting anything up.
Licensing
SQLPro Studio for Android is free to download. A Premium unlock is needed to interact with result sets, and there are two ways to get it:
- Use the key you already have. If you subscribe to SQLPro Studio (monthly or yearly), enter your existing license key in the Android app and it unlocks. Student license keys work the same way. Subscriptions now cover macOS, iOS, Android and Windows.
- Buy inside the app. Google Play offers a monthly or yearly subscription and a one time Lifetime purchase, managed through your Play account.
One note for Lifetime customers: lifetime licenses have always been per platform (a macOS lifetime key does not unlock Windows, and the same applies to Android). An Android lifetime license is bought through Google Play inside the app.
SQLPro for MySQL and SQLPro for MSSQL too
If you only work with one database engine, the single-database apps are also on Google Play:
- SQLPro for MySQL for MySQL and MariaDB
- SQLPro for MSSQL for Microsoft SQL Server and Azure SQL
They share the same code as the Studio app, and a SQLPro Studio subscription key unlocks them as well.
Requirements
Android 10 or later, on phones and tablets, in portrait or landscape. The app follows your system light or dark setting.
Feedback
This is the first Android release, and the roadmap is driven by what people ask for. If something looks wrong, or a feature you rely on from the desktop app is missing, please open an issue on GitHub or reach out through the support page.
