I don't think there is anything wrong for people to have the options to choose between FMTouch or FileMakerGo, but just because the latter is more native (from FileMaker Inc herself), doesn't mean FMTouch suddenly become bad. As the review pointed out as below,
[...] Filemaker just released their own version for ipad, but at this time it is important to note that their version DOES NOT support syncing yet. But Fmtouch does, so beware.
Choose what you want to do, but don't expect your plane brings you to the moon. You're driving yourself nuts.
Does what they say it will do

Good to see folks trying the app and then rating it, but isn't it better to rate it on what it says it will do rather than on what you WANT it to do? I want it to launch me and my ipad to the moon, but guess what...not yet. Anyway, it DOES do what it is designed to do, to input and change data on your database as you would on your computer. The database looks similar, crisp and clean and is amazingly easy to use on the ipad. Push buttons, tabs, web viewer, all are easy to use, even without redesigning in most cases. Many scripts are not supported much beyond opening different layouts and others the author specifies. Filemaker just released their own version for ipad, but at this time it is important to note that their version DOES NOT support syncing yet. But Fmtouch does, so beware. Main reason I got this app so I could input data on the fly, come to the office and then sync with my computer which it does perfectly. That is sweet! DDR service works great and is fast. Hey Filemaker is an extremely complex program, if it was easy to write apps for it, then there would be tons of people doing it, Filemaker finally got around to doing it! What does that tell you? This is a great app overall. Held back one star as it will lock up on occasion, but will restart quickly. Other than that has been a great app!
