Your Google Sheet is already a database!

One of the most common blockers for people who want to build an app: “What’s a database? How do I handle it?”

Fair concern — SQL, schemas, migrations, hosting, backups. It’s a steep entry point before you’ve even started building.

But if you’ve ever edited a Google Sheet, added rows, updated cells, shared access with a team, you’ve already been managing data. SheetBridge makes that count.

It connects your Google Sheet directly to a native app and keeps them in real-time, two-way sync. Change something in the spreadsheet, the app updates in seconds. A user interacts with the app, the sheet updates right back. The team keeps working in the tool they already know. Users get a real native app. Both stay perfectly in sync.

No database to learn. No data to migrate. No SQL to write.

The people who said you need to “learn databases” before building an app were wrong. You need a spreadsheet and SheetBridge.

Very good, Adalo… that’s what I like to see! It’s growing… a client has an Excel file and I want to integrate it… but the function isn’t showing up… where exactly is it?

Appreciate the feedback Santiago! This feature released for 25% of the makers yesterday!

This is for Google Sheets and not for Microsoft Excel files, however you can convert the xlsx file into a Google Sheet and use that with Adalo through SheetBridge by maintaining that sheet.

If you want to test this feature out before it get released to everyone, DM me your Adalo account email address. Thank you and have a great day!
