This is the only frustrating issue I have with Airtable for so many months still no fix. I believe the fix is so simple and yet no change yet. On the mobile app on iOS when I edit records, it shows all 450 fields I have in the table. I only have about 20 fields out of 450 that I am editing when creating or editing new record. All remaining 430 fields or so are calculated fields, automations, linked/lookup fields or concatenated fields. I have to scroll though all 450 fields on the mobile because the app doesn’t hide the hidden fields. Creating new exclusive view for mobile all doesn’t resolve the issue, it still shows 450 fields. The only way would be to mess my whole table structure and move all 20 fields to front of the table, create a 20-field custom view for my mobile app and then ignore the rest when editing on the mobile app. This approach doesn’t work. The field order has a certain logic. If I add a 21st visible field to the table, I would have to move it manually 450 steps to front of the table to make it visible in front. That’s because I can’t use the function to copy field order from another view if I setup a custom 20 field view for my mobile app. Really, Airtable, how long it takes to do such a very simple tweak on the mobile all. Out of the wish-list (I am sure it’s long) it is hardly anyhing more simple. I wanted to email to Airtable support, what’s the best way to let them know. Here in the forum or email? ... View more

Hi! Today I received an notifaction stating that someone (flukey email address) was requesting to join one of my bases. I find this very troublesome and makes me rethink using airtable for structuring company and client information. I dont know alot about the structure of airtable, but is there any ways to prevent this from happening? In any case, what can other people see about my account and bases? ... View more

Hi, I’d like a “New Record” (“Add record”) button (icon) on the top beside the View-Name and before the “Hide fields”. A shortcut would be handy, too - ‘ctrl+N’ maybe. Have a nice day, Géza ... View more

I love having the Locked View feature to lock the structure of the view for my employees. However, it is only the structure I need to lock and would still love to be able to have filtering functionality within a locked view. Thank you. ... View more

I have about 30 automations and in my base and every time I copy the base, all Automations are disabled. I kind of get it why it is, I guess precautionary measure to prevent triggering automations again when they shouldn’t run (e.g. sending emails again, posting into facebook etc.). That’s fine. I get it. In my base, my Automations are only within Airtable and don’t interact with 3rd party services. I rely on Automations to fill some fields in my table. Recently I copied my base and I forgot to turn on the Automations. The issue now I am facing is all the data I filled into the table is incomplete, my formulas didn’t run and basically the data is useless. I will need to spend hour or more to fill in manually the stuff that would have done with Automations (many of them start on new record creation etc) So while I understand why Automations shouldn’t be enabled by default, I wish I was able to turn them on easily (not go one by one to turn on each Automation… I got almost 30 of them). And secondly, I wish there was a switch in the dialogue when copying to base that would allow be to enable all Automations in the copied base. Here are screenshots of what I mean: . And this is the copy dialogue… Thanks ... View more

Hi, I could not find that feature in the app, neither mention in the documentation. Currently Airtable provides comment feature on records and attachments. I’d like to comment on a specific table and base as I want to discuss topics at that level. There are feature requests for field (=column) and individual cell level commenting.
