ABOUT THIS APP

Connector for FileMaker is an Android client for direct access to your FileMaker WebDirect server.

With this FileMaker Android app, you can open and manage your FileMaker solutions securely, intuitively, and without detours – whether in the office, warehouse, on the road, or working from home.
