AppoBase is a Firelize alternative with Storage and query history
Firelize is a desktop Firebase GUI. Its public homepage lists inline edits, import/export/transfer, Auth user management, a TypeScript script editor, named Firestore databases, emulator support, and a JSON editor, with a 14-day trial. AppoBase is the same class of product: a local GUI. AppoBase ships visual and JavaScript queries, query history, and Cloud Storage with four views.
Treat both as local Firebase GUIs
Firelize and AppoBase both keep Firebase work on the desktop. Firelize documents TypeScript scripts against Firestore or Auth, drag-and-drop exports, and production-to-emulator transfers. AppoBase documents Monaco JavaScript queries, per-collection history, and a Storage browser. Read-only project locks are listed as coming soon on Firelize's homepage.
AppoBase isolates service account credentials in the Electron main process. Firelize's homepage states the app runs locally with OS-level encryption. Both models keep documents off a vendor admin cloud.
Compare the public feature lists
The table uses Firelize's homepage and docs nav (Firestore, Authentication, Script Editor, multi-database, emulator) plus AppoBase's shipped app. Storage is not on Firelize's homepage feature set. AppoBase lists four Storage views and signed URLs for Mac and Windows.
The last column is AppoBase. Rows are features the current Mac and Windows app ships. Firelize cells use the public homepage list.
| Feature | Firelize | AppoBase6 of 6 features |
|---|---|---|
| Cloud Storage browser | Not on the public homepage | Folder, Tree, Grid, Table |
| Query history with replay | Not on the public homepage | History, replay, logs |
| Signed Storage URLs | Not on the public homepage | Configurable expiry |
| Visual and JavaScript queries | Docs cover Firestore queries | Simple filters plus Monaco |
| Named databases | Named databases listed | Isolated tab per database |
| Auth users | Auth management listed | Custom claims |
Check means AppoBase or the other product lists that feature. A muted check is a weaker or split surface. A dash means the public page does not list it.
Firelize lists a TypeScript script editor on its homepage. AppoBase uses Monaco JavaScript queries plus history instead.
Firelize alternative questions
These answers stick to Firelize's public homepage and AppoBase's feature list. They cover scripts versus query history and Storage. They do not rank the two apps or invent missing Firelize features beyond 'not listed'. Download AppoBase if Storage browsing is the reason to switch.
Does AppoBase include a script editor like Firelize?
AppoBase includes a JavaScript query editor with Monaco, not a separate TypeScript script workspace. Firelize's homepage lists a TypeScript script editor for Firestore and Auth. AppoBase stores query history with execution logs instead.
Does Firelize browse Cloud Storage?
Firelize's public homepage does not list Cloud Storage. AppoBase browses Cloud Storage in Folder, Tree, Grid, and Table views and can generate signed URLs.
AppoBase is a Firelize alternative when you want Cloud Storage and query history on Mac or Windows. Firelize remains a desktop Firebase GUI with a TypeScript script editor and a 14-day trial. Download AppoBase from the homepage.
