Hi, As far as I can tell, currently you can set row heights to Short/Medium/Tall/Extra Tall. This height setting is applied to every row in the base. It’d be nice if there could be a “dynamic height” option, where each individual row is set to a height depending on its longest content. So a row that has a cell which requires 5 lines to display will have a height of 5 lines, while a row whose longest cell is only 1 word will be still be the “Short” height. This would be really useful for bases where we have text content that varies greatly in length (for example, user responses to an open-ended survey question). Right now, I have to set the height to “Extra Tall” to fit in most answers, but this wastes a lot of space because there are also lots of short answers which end up taking up way more space than they need.

It would be great if Pro Plan got a bit of an upgrade on storage and record limits. Whats weird is that there is no tier between Pro and Enterprise. Airtable should either make Enterprise not have a minimum of 25 users as lots of Small businesses dont need that or make a tier between Enterprise and Pro. 10k USD is an insane jump up from spending 2000 USD a year. This just doesn't make sense. A lot of Saas companies forget that their billing is quite high for places like southeast Asia where businesses are NOT printing money like in the west. Our business is at 15 GB of storage and about 20k records. Once we are over our storage limit, why cant we simple upgrade the storage only? We dont need more functionality. But are willing to pay extra for storage, but not 5 times the amount we pay now. If Airtable doesn't change this policy, people who outgrow the Pro plan will go elsewhere. Smartsuite is another strong contender coming up and they are pumping out new features and update by the week. Custom fields, map fields, linked records from other bases. All things that make a lot of sense but for some reason airtable doesn't implement.

What is the proposed idea/solution? A few simple reaction options for record comments, e.g, thumbs up, thumbs down, laugh, smiling face How does is solve the user problems? No simple way to show that you have seen and are actioning a comment unless you leave another comment, which sometimes feels like more than is needed. Who is the target audience? Anyone who uses Airtable for communicating on projects - between teams or with clients!

When sharing in external places like iMessage or Slack that support a rich preview, it would be much more helpful if links to specific records or specific bases/views actually said in the preview what the name of the card or base/view was rather than every link always just saying “Airtable works like a spreadsheet but gives you the power of a database to organize anything. Sign up for free.” That way someone can see what we’re talking about before having to click the link. Alternately more readable url’s would be nice.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Be able to group and/or hide tables in a base. For example I am linking to records in other bases, so tables are being imported into bases. I'd like to hide these synced tables to keep the base organzied and focused for users. How does is solve the user problems? Helps with staying organized and keeping a base clean. I'd like to hide these synced tables to keep the base organized and focused for users. It could help clearly show which tables are meant to be interacted with, while other tables are purely due to being referenced, thus wanting to hide them. How was this validated? ? Who is the target audience? Everyone using Airtable

Dark Mode and themes. It seems standard nowadays to allow users to tweak the appearance of the app or interface they are using, except for Airtable. The ability to use your own colours to better suit how you organize your work and reducing eye strain with a dark mode seems like a no-brainer. Please Airtable, listen to the users, and give us dark mode.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Providing Interface designers with the ability to allow/disallow the visibility of the field "i" tooltip inside Interfaces. How does is solve the user problems? Currently, we are using text blocks in the UI to explain certain field purposes or possible pitfalls of user selections. You can really clean up an interface and reduce user support questions by providing them with the ability to get further information before making a choice at the exact moment in their workflow that it is appropriate. Blocks of text mean to help a user perform functions really make the entire interface too cluttered to use for experienced users. Some users don't use the system very often so they usually completely forget and need this help but. Maintaining two interfaces with different levels of "Info Help" is not a viable option. From an administration standpoint, this allows for already existing documentation to now serve both database designers and end users at the same time. Future leaning thinking also implies that there could be two fields for "Description" - each with a different set of permissions so that admins can leave themselves complex backend notes for themselves and their teams yet provide more simple descriptions for interface front end users. How was this validated? N/A Who is the target audience? Anyone designing interfaces for themselves or others

In a URL field, I want to be able to press Alt-Enter or Ctrl-Enter to open a link in a new tab (just like Excel).

What is the proposed idea/solution? Price per user rather than per Workspace - Or allow better organization, folders, etc within a Workspace. We pay more per user on a Pro plan than we do for our CRM. Yet if we want to collaborate with external parties we need to move the base to a free workspace due to the sharing limitations. We are a small company and purchased pro for everyone - yet it is becoming a mess. We cannot even segment visibility of bases within the workspace from some users, since everyone needs to be a pro for that workspace. Enterprise is outlandishly expensive for small organizations. We are willing to pay for the service, but the limits even on a pro plan are limiting our use and commitment to the product. How does is solve the user problems? ... How was this validated? ...
