Table of Contents
Apps in SeaTable are individual frontends for specific user groups that have different information needs (e.g. employees, department managers, directors). Open access to apps allows you to make your data available to external third parties (e.g. customers, business partners) without a SeaTable account.
To build these apps, there are so-called app builders, in which you can create different user interfaces and make a whole lot of settings. The backend of an app is always a base . You can create as many apps as you like for each base. The rule of thumb is: one app per user group and use case.
The apps at a glance
There are currently two different types of apps available in SeaTable.
The Universal App (Universal App)
With the Universal app, you can let your creativity run wild. The app has a number of page types that allow you to present your data in the form of tables, web forms, calendars or kanban boards, among others. By creating a custom page, you can also build dashboards with meaningful statistics from your data and share them with other (external) users.

The data query app (Data Query App)
A data query app is a user-specific search form. Create such an app if you want other users to be able to search your records in a table view for specific entries. Select which column values to display in the query results to customize which data a user group can access.
