    Is Tap Forms for Mac using single file as data storage?
    I used to prefer FileMaker because it uses single file so easy to carry around.

    Tap Forms Mac (and iOS) uses a single .sqlite file to store all its data (other than photos and other media attachments). They’re stored in ~/Library/Containers/com.tapforms.mac

    Thanks!

    Is it possible to open data on another Mac by coping sqlite file?

    Your best bet is to use the Backup & Restore function built-in to Tap Forms. On one Mac, select the Backup command from the File menu. Move that backup file over to your other Mac, then use the Restore command to restore that backup to the other Mac.

    Thanks!
