Analytics on the web, Windows and Android

Build and administer in the browser, design offline in Studio for Windows, and read on the Android app, all on the same governed data.

Web app

The whole platform in any modern browser: connect, model, build, share and administer.

  • Every product, from Connect to Stories, in one place
  • Dashboards switch to their phone layout in a mobile browser
  • Keyboard navigation, high contrast and screen reader announcements in the viewer

Studio for Windows

A desktop designer that works fully offline, then publishes to your workspace. macOS is on the way.

  • A local analytics engine: no server needed to design
  • CSV, Excel and Parquet files, and tables from PostgreSQL, MySQL or SQL Server
  • Publish to a workspace model, and pull dashboards back to edit locally

Android app

For the people who read what others build: dashboards, metrics, reports, stories and alerts, with their own access.

  • Home shows what changed since you last looked
  • Notifications for fired alerts, mentions and items shared with you
  • Dashboards available offline open without a connection

Which app for which job

The web app does everything. Studio and the Android app each do one part of it well, on the same governed data.

Same sign-in, same rules

Every app signs in the way your organization requires and reads data with each person’s own access.

  • One sign-in

    Passwords, passkeys, emailed sign-in links and single sign-on on the web and in the Android app, with two-factor authentication.
  • The same data rules

    A dashboard opens on the phone with the same rules as on the web: people see only the rows and columns they are allowed to.
  • Controls for your organization

    Require the app lock, turn off offline copies, require a watermark on shared images, and retire old app versions.
  • No secrets in Studio projects

    Database passwords stay in the operating system’s credential store, never in the project, and connections are encrypted.

Questions, answered

Is there an iPhone app?
Not today. The phone app is Android only. On an iPhone, dashboards open in the browser with their phone layout.
Does Studio need a network connection?
Not to design: Studio works offline against local extracts. Publishing to a workspace, and pulling a dashboard from one, need a connection and a DataSquares account with permission to create dashboards.
Can people build dashboards on the phone?
No. The Android app is for reading. Building and administration stay on the web app and in Studio.
