TablePlus
Native database GUI
freemiumDevelopment
TablePlus is a native client for dozens of databases: PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Redis, ClickHouse, and more. Fast, with smart filters, a safe-edit mode, and SQL highlighting. The free tier limits open tabs — enough for exploration.

// Common questions
What does the free version limit?
The free version never expires but caps how many tabs and connections you can keep open at once. Fine for occasional work; daily use pushes you to a licence.
TablePlus or DBeaver?
TablePlus is native, fast, and paid; DBeaver is free, Java-based, supports more database engines, and carries a heavier interface. Speed versus coverage.
