# SQLPro for MySQL

> SQLPro for MySQL is a native MySQL and MariaDB database client for macOS and iOS. It provides a fast, lightweight GUI to connect to, query, edit, and manage MySQL databases without Java or Electron. It is Apple Silicon native and runs on modern versions of macOS.

SQLPro for MySQL is developed by Hankinsoft Development, Inc. It is designed for developers, DBAs, and data analysts who want a simple, powerful MySQL manager on the Mac. The app launches instantly, uses minimal system resources, and supports connections to local, remote, and cloud-hosted MySQL servers including Amazon RDS, Amazon Aurora, Azure Database for MySQL, and Google Cloud SQL, with SSH tunneling for secure access.

SQLPro for MySQL is a strong native alternative to Sequel Pro (unmaintained since ~2019 and incompatible with MySQL 8 authentication) and to MySQL Workbench for users who prefer a fast, native Mac app over a cross-platform tool. Sequel Ace is a free, community-maintained fork of Sequel Pro; SQLPro for MySQL differs by adding an iOS app, iCloud Keychain sync, and commercial support. Users who need more than one database engine (PostgreSQL, SQL Server, SQLite, Oracle) may prefer the multi-database sibling app, SQLPro Studio.

Key features include MySQL 5.0 and above and MariaDB support, syntax highlighting, autocomplete, multiple simultaneous result sets, table creation and editing, inline data editing, data import (CSV, JSON, SQL) and export (CSV, JSON, XML, SQL), stored procedures and triggers, dark mode, and cloud database support.
