Did AirTable remove the ability to use forms on interfaces on mobile devices? We were previously able to submit forms on the mobile interface, but now we get the pop-up message that the page is not supported on mobile. Can we get this feature back?
Mobile Interface - Forms Not Working
+6
Did we get the answer to this? Submitted several help requests to airtable--no response. My customers can't fill out any airtable forms on mobile. Miniextensions forms work OK, but what is going on with airtable forms????

No... it's very odd to remove an already-existing feature. We can only hope that AirTable will bring this feature back when they eventually support interfaces on mobile/tablets.
+1I just finished my first proper AirTable interface POC, in love with the tool.
I would also appreciate this feature.
use case : my application is a health passeport for my car (logging maintenance, fuel, arrangements) and I would like to be able to add rows to my “gas station stop” form on the run from my mobile.
+35All of Airtable’s forms work on mobile devices.
However, Airtable’s forms are very limited in their feature set, so if you’re looking for the ability to add new rows (i.e. add new linked records) to a form, you would either need to:
- Use one of Airtable’s mobile-friendly interface pages (which is all of the interface pages except for the “blank” interface page).
or
- Re-create your Airtable forms in Fillout’s advanced forms for Airtable.
Fillout is 100% free and offers hundreds of features that Airtable’s native forms don’t offer, including the ability to create new linked records on a form, update Airtable records from a form, display Airtable lookup fields on forms, perform math or other live calculations on your forms, accept payments on forms, create multi-page forms with conditional paths, and so much more.
I show how to use a few of the advanced features of Fillout on these 2 Airtable podcast episodes:
- Using Fillout to create an eSignature approval process with PDF file creation
- Using Fillout to create an order entry form with line items.
Hope this helps!
