While it seems Airtable is a desktop-built application, many customers/clients use mobile. A fair limitation to using Airtable for our business is the ability for our prospects to use the Sort/Filter features for an embedded view on mobile. They simply can’t interact with the data unless they are at a PC… ... View more

I’d like to suggest adding a feature where we can quickly acknowledge comments or activity of other users in the “Activity” sections of projects. Generally this is something like a thumbs up button where somebody can click on it as a way of simply letting the person who made a comment or any kind of post in the activity center know that they have seen their submission without needing to take the time to type out a comment informing them they have seen it. Thanks! ... View more

Hi guys, An option to get the user who created the record (like CREATED_TIME()) would be nice. Best, Arthur. ... View more

We’re currently using airtable as a pretty advanced project management system, so we commonly have about 40-60 columns per table, and we’ll also have 20+ views per table as well. With this many columns/views, and many of them being the same (as far as ‘column order’ goes), we’d love to be able to copy the column order (and other view attributes) and paste it into another view. If this copy/paste function could be similar to the Adobe products where you can copy/paste ‘layer styles’, that would be great! So, if the ‘hidden fields’, ‘filters’, ‘grouped by’ and ‘column order’ could be copied and pasted (applied) to another view, that would be ideal. It would be even better if I could select which items I’d like to be copied, and which ones to start fresh on. Thoughts on this? ... View more

For some reason, I’m having the odd person create duplicate options in single select fields. (so, say I have In Stock and Backordered as two single select options, someone could free type In Stock and add it as a third option) It would be good if either: a) The option to create a new single select disappeared when the text that had been entered perfectly matched an existing single select option or b) When opening the single select setting, you could do a quick merge of the duplicate actions. The quickest way to do this currently is to change the field type from single select to text and back again, but this has a negative downside in that if you have any single select options not currently being used in the base, you will lose them when converting back from text to single select. (Also a toggle to automatically keep single selects sorted alphabetically would be nice too, as would the ability to type and create new single select options from a form) ... View more

Hi there, Loving Airtable guys, really great work! Got a request / question: I want to share a grid view with a sales team who will primarily be viewing the base on their mobile devices. The base is large (around 2000 records) so a search function is essential, however whilst search is available on the desktop shared view it isn’t available on the mobile shared view. Is there any plans to introduce this? Or even better, a workaround? Thanks Ross ... View more

I’d like to be able to edit images in order to re-crop and rotate them. There is a airtable help article saying this is not supported and asking users to re-upload images. This is a pretty annoying workaround. Whilst the web app at least allows cropping and rotation of images during initial upload, the iOS apps do not. And you never know the orientation of an image coming from an iphone - there is even an unresolved issue I found in this forum about this. So users who want quality photographs in their databases, who therefore use iphones to take photos - cannot crop, cannot rotate, cannot edit later and are never 100% sure of the orientation of their images. ...

It would be nice if Airtable added a “click to call” formatting for phone numbers. That way if you use Skype/Teams or another service you can simply click the phone number you want to call. The mobile app allows it, so not sure why we can’t have on web app. ... View more
