In the Olympics, steroids are definitely a bad idea. However when used in
the context of an incredible software application we think that enhanced
performance is what everyone needs. FMTouch is a powerhouse that enables
you to run multiple FileMaker databases locally on your iPhone or iPod
touch. Yes, for the first time ever, multiple related tables and layouts
are supported.
If you are still asking yourself - what is it that FMTouch can do for me? I
applaud your curiosity. If you use FileMaker Pro and you have an Apple
iPhone or iPod Touch you can transfer that fully relational database to
your iPhone or iPod. Yes you can run FileMaker locally on your iPhone.
FMTouch supports multiple databases. Imagine having your contacts database,
your inventory database, all with you on your iPhone. You can access your
data anywhere and never have to worry about internet connections. While
everyone else is suffering from the "no bars" crisis, you can be the hero
by having all of your FileMaker data running locally on your iPhone. If you
add, edit or delete records from your FMTouch database, you can easily sync
to your main FileMaker database on your local or served file with our
secure sync plug-in. FMTouch works equally well on both Macintosh and
Windows.
The great thing is you never have to worry about not having your FileMaker
data with you. It's like having FileMaker in your pocket. FMTouch includes
a beautiful design interface and is rich with features only available on
the iPhone or iTouch. Simply tapping a phone number in a field and it
automatically dials the phone, or tapping an email address and you are
instantly presented with your email application.

You can add records, edit records, delete records, delete found sets, sort
records, edit portal rows, search, find all records and even use FileMaker
generated runtimes.
