Grouped grid view is not grouped on mobile phones for non-registred persons

[Peter_de_Leeuw]

I have a List where I want different non-registred people to enter data using a form, and afterwards being able to see the results.
It works well with the form, and I have the link to the shared grid view after the submission, so that the people can watch the results.
The grid view is grouped and I have the problem, that the view is not grouped on mobile phones. It works fine on PCs.
However, the view is grouped on any device as soon as I have signed in. So it is only the shared-by-a-link-view that is not grouped.

Anyone knowing more about this issue?
Thanks in advance, it would make my life so much easier! :slightly_smiling_face:

Yeah, this is a gigantic flaw in the product. Shared views don’t work properly on mobile. You may want to email support@airtable.com to ask them to fix this, and you may want to chime in on this recent thread:

@Jordan_Scott1 This is a very welcome improvement for the mobile experience! :slight_smile: Thank you for adding this into the product! However, the #1 biggest problem with mobile Airtable usage still remains: Shared Views on mobile are “essentially unusable” because they don’t show the toolbar, so users can’t sort/filter/search/group/etc. when they’re using a shared view on mobile. I know of 3 businesses who abandoned Airtable because of this limitation. If you’d like, I can give you their …

The only workaround to this issue — and it’s a really terrible one — is to request the desktop site in your mobile browser.

Thanks for your input.
I think the mobile view must not even be interactive; it would be enough if the view would be displayed as set.

I will certainly look into the thread.

Thank you very much.
