The default responsive 'card layout' of an embedded view is perfect for mobile phones. However, the big disadvantage is that the search and filter toolbar disappears in this card layout. This makes it basically useless if you have many records in one view (in my case >1500). In theory, I assume this should be a relatively easy fix. Within the Airtable App the function already exist. I know it is possible to tell your browser to load the site in 'desktop mode', but if you use a table with many rows and columns this just doesn't give the right experience on a small screen. I built an advanced product portal using 'embedded views' that show >1500 records. The search and filter possibility enables you to find the exact product you need. The portal even comes with a responsive web app. But this final lack of functionality makes the tool practically useless for mobile phone usage. I know there may be 3'rd party solutions that come close to this functionality, but I just can't stand it that this functionality is missing. The card layout comes so close to being perfect, it just need a responsive search and filter toolbar! Any development in this would be greatly appreciated!!!

Mobile-friendly interface: To make the AIRTABLE interface more mobile-friendly, the following improvements could be made: Design the interface to be responsive to different screen sizes and resolutions, so that it can be used on any device without losing functionality or readability. Simplify the interface by removing unnecessary elements and prioritizing the most important ones, to make it easier to use on a small screen. Use larger fonts and clear, high-contrast colors to ensure that all text and visual elements are easy to read and distinguish.

I have an iPad Pro and it’s beyond frustrating having to drag myself through the desktop site (which already sucks on mobile devices) just to build a simple formula tab or edit it for that matter. Am I the only one here that’s incredibly frustrated by this?

I saw some old suggestions here on the forums but just wanted to check does anyone know if Airtable ever gave an official reason for why the tablet version of the app is so crippled? Using the site in recent versions of Safari on the iPad is almost-not-infuriating these days but can’t a unicorn startup muster a few bucks and get someone on the task on figuring out how to run a proper web app on $2,000+ worth of hardware? 😅

So, when we group the data by a field we get many collapsable groups. If would be great if the group headers have a check box just like a record that can help up select everything in that group. For example I have grouped the data by FieldA and some of the records are blank in FieldA. This will give me a group with ‘Blank Header’ and I can simple select it and delete those record.

Found myself accidentally deleting something, then went to undo the delete and realized there is no undo on iOS, or at least I couldn’t figure it out

We need the ability to duplicate a record on our mobile apps so we can quickly add, then edit, a brand new record that’s strongly similar to the first, saving us excessive duplicative entry work in records with many fields.

Hi there, the current version of the galleries prevents mobile phone users (via a web browser) to use the sorting, filtering and search mechanisms on the galleries. On a mobile web browser, the toolbar is hidden (and on a PC, below the 500px responsive breakpoint as well). I just tried it on a mobile web browser in landscape mode requesting the desktop version and it works more than fine… Is there a reason for behaving so? Could you please re-enable this? Thanks a lot!

For the sake of sanity I beg Airtable to allow increase size of thumbnails on mobile apps iOS and Android
This is getting nuts! I sold my beloved iPhone and switched to Android for the main reason that thumbnails of picture attachments in Airtable are so small on iOS.
They were a little bit bigger - still small but acceptable - on Android.
Now Airtable updated the design of the app on Android. While I applaud the changes and improvements the SIZE OF THE THUMBNAILS is now even smaller! About the size on iOS!!
For the sake of sanity, I beg Airtable, Please allow people with less than perfect eyesight to continue using Airtable.
Pictures are way better to look for individual records if searching by text is not an option.
The thumbnails are now small beyond the limit of pain.
Give the people with less than perfect eyesight the option to change the size of the rows and thus hopefully change the size of the thumbnail.
I do NOT need you to cache a larger version of the thumbnails. It should be perfectly fine the size the app already has in Cache, but allow it to make it bigger and set the row height bigger.
I am not expecting to have the same range of options as we on the desktop and on the web. But give us one additional size to increase the row height.
This is so important and I have emailed many times to Airtable over last 12 months, no updates on this request.
Yet, when I look at the reviews of the mobile apps, both Android and iOS, I see countless people have the issue.
