What is the proposed idea/solution? Include interface access on Android phones and permit form creation for any type of phone. Or, making the app available on the Windows store in some capacity for PC users.  How does it solve the user problems? This would make experience more consistent across all platforms. Interfaces are extremely helpful for transmitting information and using on site for a job. We can set up on the back end in preproduction a clean interface with information that is constantly changing. But, when only 50% of the freelancers we hire have the same kind of phone, it becomes a hindrance in efficiency.  Who is the target audience? Anyone who doesn't have a mac or an iPhone. Google Pixels and Samsungs are becoming more prevalent because of availability and pricing, Airtable needs to step into the PC world with accessibility. It will change the user experience dramatically.  ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? To hide the first (main) column of a table in a Grid element. How does it solve user problems? Not all tables' first column is important, especially for tables that mainly connect between linked records. While the first column cannot be hidden on Airtable base tables, it should be possible on the Interface Designer's Grid element. Who is the target audience? Those who use the Grid element on the Interface Designer. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? To be able to group Interface Designer's pages into sections. Additionally, to access them via hover/clicked dropdown or mega menu at the top when the Interface is published. How does it solve user problems? If a user has multiple pages in the Interface Designer, the user should be able to group them into different sections for a cleaner, more organized view. Like data table views having sections on the left, pages should, too, as they act as an alternative to table views. Who is the target audience? Interface Designer users. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? To use other Number elements on the page as a source for a Number element How does it solve user problems? Number element, by itself, can use one table as a source. Still, if I have multiple Number elements using different tables as a source, it would be helpful to get the sum (or other summary types) of other elements, so there's a grand total of some sort. How was this validated? The same idea as how Number elements work, but using other elements as a source rather than a table. Who is the target audience? Those who use the Dashboard template on the Interface Designer. ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? A button or link to quickly download a CSV table of the data underlying a chart.  How does this solve the user problems? The chart tools in Airtable are great. However, there are many times when charts need to be recreated in PowerPoint or another program (to customize formatting, to combine with information from outside Airtable, to add to professionally designed reports, etc.). As far as I know, this currently can only be done by manually creating a summary table in the other program – or, in some cases, by using formulas, automation, etc. in Airtable to create summary tables automatically. Both are time-consuming and prone to errors. If a user could instead just quickly download a summary table to paste into another program, it could greatly improve efficiency and accuracy.  How was this validated? ...

What is the proposed idea/solution? Currently the filters in Interface for a Boolean filter is limited to "is". The user does not have the option to "ignore the field" by leaving it unchecked . Unchecked pulls up all unchecked records, checked pulls up all checked records. This is too rigid of an option and causes user to get confused by the records they see when they don't check the box in the filter. When you press the "reset" link next to the filter, the user thinks they are seeing all the records when, in fact, they are seeing only the unchecked records. The solution would be to have 2 options for the modifier "is" and "any". The checkbox is grayed out or hidden if the user selects the "any" modifier.         ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? The current Interface Designer is great, but it can be a bit difficult to make every field we need visible organize on a blank page that fits our needs. It would be great if there were widgets that allow for the collapsing of a group of fields or organizing them into clickable pages.   How does is solve the user problems? Make it easier to demonstrate steps and phases to projects.  Instead of having every stage laid out on one part. Clicking right or left or collapsing and uncollapsing parts of the record can show different applicable fields. How was this validated? Simply that if one "page" is not completed per guidance set by the creator, one cannot move on to the next phase.  or just organizing field attributes in a box that will allow for page creation.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Currently, there's no way for an element (i.e. a Kanban element) to be connected to multiple filter elements. This would be useful for example if a user needs to create an interface with multiple sections. The interface having a main general filter affecting all the elements in each section, and each section containing secondary particular filter elements. The connection here would be "AND" between the filter elements. How does is solve the user problems? This would allow making the interface much simpler, instead of repeating the same filter elements over and over again across all the filter elements of the page, a general filter would be set at the beginning of the interface and the following optional/secondary filters would be left for each section across the interface. Currently the interfaces with this approach are super repetitive and a user needs to apply a single filter multiple times.   How was this validated? ... Who is the target audience? ... ... View more
