Hello All,

Personally I use airtable to track things throughout the day, and I’ve found it quite annoying to not have a time field option that is separate from the date. Of course I can enter the time manually in a single line text entry, but I think since we can enter the date without the time it only makes sense that we be able to enter the time without the date. What do you all think? Is this something you would find useful or something you have wished for?

I wouldn’t hold my breath. Airtable employees rarely read, let alone answer, posts in this community (although it has improved somewhat over the last weeks). Your best chance is to send an email to support@airtable.com.


If we get loud enough, things do eventually change.

They finally fixed the horizonal scrolling issue after a few years haha. And we can now do more automations at least. It seems like they’re trying to grow and improve, probably because of competition like smartsuite. I’m glad to know about it in case we need to transition over too. That would be a major undertaking though, and I’d rather not do it.

@airtable, please listen to your customers!


Hope that helps!


Commenting to say I also want a time only field. It's so odd there isn't one. I don't want to calculate a formula I just want times!
