Data Jar

Thanks for such an amazing app, I have been on since early in the beta, and the ability to get files and data in and out, essentially having global variables in iOS shortcuts which means that not all of my data has to go back and forth with the online database API that I use but can be stored locally and improves performance tremendously. Also, the JSON language formatting, being able to store audio, files, text, photos is great. And finally, the multi-select and select all options that debuted with the launch helped me clean up all my testing data really quickly. Amazing app, thank you so much!

For years, I’ve been sticking Shortcuts data in all sorts of places - Files, Reminders, etc. And, yeah, they worked, but not always well and they tended to make my Shortcuts more complicated than they needed to be. First thing I did with DataJar was write some new Shortcuts I’d been thinking about. It was so much easier. And, I really like being able to tweak my saved data easily in the DaraJar app. I’ve now written an old Shortcut to take advantage of DataJar. I’m happy. Tipped! :)

Data Jar makes logging information using Shortcuts SO much easier! Before this app I had to append information to a Note or text file, which never really worked well. Now I can set up Shortcuts to keep lists and tallies with ease. My only complaint is that right now the Tip Jar in-app purchases aren’t working, so I can’t show the developer my appreciation!

I love the app so far. But two issues I come across: 1. Crash - I would have the app open and going through the pages and the app would crash out of nowhere. 2. When copying text from the Notes app, it would be saved as an image instead of text. Then the app would crash when I try to open up the image.

Data Jar is a very useful app that I'm just starting to explore. Right now, it's rock-solid, does what it says, and gets updates frequently. The more I do in Data Jar, the more I think of other things that I can do!
