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!!! ... View more

Hi. I have the following suggestions for improvements on the Calendar View so that it is easier to use and navigate. The calendar should be made SCROLLABLE so that, like other common calendar apps, you can view the next/previous month/weeks/days easily without searching for the tiny little ‘<>’ buttons to navigate between. The calendar should better have a ‘sync from’ function. Like how you sync your Airtable calendar contents to other calendar apps by ‘share view’ URL, Airtable can add a function for users to sync schedules from other apps to Airtable by typing in the Source Calendar’s URL. It should be different from the current Pro Plan Import Calendar Function, which only allows manual import of data but not synchronization. If there is currently a method to achieve this, I would very much like to know about it. There should be a Customize Record Preview function. When an record on the calendar is clicked on, it currently only shows the Name of record and its Date field. However, it may seem a bit meaningless since the calendar view already puts the record s on respective days according to its Date field. Would it be more practical if there is a ‘Customize Record Preview’ button (like ‘Customize Cards’ button in Gallery/Kanban View) which allows users to choose record field(s) they would like to show in the preview card after clicking on the record. The grids of the calendar can be more flexible, which means there can be a function for users to adjust the height/width of the grids in order to meet personal preferences. For example, users can set how many record s (e.g. 3/4/5/6) can be shown in every grid, and the height of each day will lengthen/shorten depending on it. Data range is quite an essential function so that I hope Airtable would include it in the basic plan in the future. Regarding the convenience, I think the title ‘June 2021’ (shown in the fig. below) should be made a clickable header, linking to a dropdown list/ quick menu for choosing months and year. It facilitates jumping to other years/months directly, but not repeatedly clicking on those ‘<>’ buttons. Does anyone have similar views on the Calendar view configurations? Welcome to comment below! I hope Airtable would continue to make itself a better, multifunctional productivity tool. ... View more

Whilst working with my local running club, I've discovered that the a grouped Grid View hasn't the ability to show the primary field as an average. My base design has the primary field utilised as the Time Keeper for each runners Finish Time. I noticed that there's no control to toggle the primary fields group count into an average (or anything else) - as per the other column, such as "Net Time Calculated". With my Primary Field being set as a Duration that captures the finish time, it's kind of important/useful to have these other options available. I'm hoping either that this is a bug that can be quickly addressed, or perhaps I'm having a moment (...or my browser is) and the option is there but I'm just not seeing it. 😅 ... View more

So many people using their smart phones are using the autofill feature, which usually adds an extra space on the end. I would love if (1) That could be an option on FORMS (2) to each field and (3) a TRIM ALL feature that trims everything. While I understand I can make a script or automation, it’s such a common reoccurrence it would be very helpful if it was baked in. Thanks! ... View more

It would be great if we had the ability to use the record coloring feature to flag records that satisfy any number of criteria based on any number of existing table fields, and to allow multiple color “flags” per record. I would love to be able to see, at a glance, when a record satisfies multiple criteria, but not have to create a really complicated formula field to accomplish the same goal. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? A better and more flexible way to export views as pdf.  How does is solve the user problems? Now the pdf export for views is very limited. There is no logo options, row dimension settings,.... How was this validated?   Who is the target audience? People at meetings, users who still need to print to do lists for collaboration ( i'm an architect and workers on the field need information printed on paper)   ... View more

I have lots of tables and views. I’d love to see maybe a drop down at the top of the base to select favorite views for ones I go to frequently. ... View more

So I use grouped field a lot! What I do miss is a way to group fields horizontally to better show that some field a connected. So that it’s not the records you group but the fields. Adding a little headline would be great. I often need my colleagues to go into a view and edit certain fields but I have to explicitly say which field she/he needs to edit and sometimes they oversee a field. I now I could hide the fields but I would like to keep some information visible even though they shouldn’t edit it. Hope it make sense ... View more

Problem Bases organically grow pretty wide over time. When it comes time to reign that growth in, I usually use the hidden fields tool to quickly look through my fields before further inspecting them. The search feature helps, but it’s limited to filtering by keywords, which means I only find fields that are well named. A Use Case A user needs to look through ton of redundant due date fields. To find them, the user needs to repeatedly scour hundreds of fields for anything of the ‘date’ field type before being able to inspect more carefully. Likewise, they’ll need to look for other field types (formulas, single line text) that can also serve up date related data. Solution(s) At minimum, it’d be useful to sort the hidden fields by ‘field type,’ but I’m sure there are other ideas worth exploring as well - such as alphabetical sorting, who and when the field was created (other great ones in the comments). ...
