Base 3.0 Released

Base app icon


I'm incredibly happy to announce that Base 3.0 is now available for download.

The app has had a major overhaul to all areas while keeping a familiar UI.
Base 3 is faster, more capable and even nicer to use.

 

Highlights of this version include:

  • Working with multiple attached databases
  • Support for more SQLite features like:
    • WITHOUT ROWID & STRICT tables
    • Partial indexes (with WHERE clauses)
    • Named table constraints
    • Generated columns
  • Better syntax highlighting & autocomplete in the SQL editor
  • It’s faster at all operations, especially import & export

An overview of the application with screenshots is available on the product page.

Pricing and requirements

Base 3 is being distributed as a separate app to Base 21. It’s free to download with some features limited to those who purchase an unlock license.

Licenses are priced at £29.99 (or local equivalent) and can be purchased here.

People who are currently using Base 2 can continue to do so. It won’t auto-update to Base 3 and there will not be any more updates to Base 2.

Base 3 requires macOS 15 (Sequoia) or newer.
