There are a number of task management features that Airtable needs in order to fully replace other popular apps. I think the best dedicated task management app is MeisterTask (like Trello), which has a superb UI and functional design. I recommend paying close attention to what they’ve done—then consider ways Airtable could imitate (and improve upon!) some of that design. Here are some specific features for better task management: Checklists - This is already a highly demanded feature request. Checklists could be another field type or an automatic component of all records. (MeisterTask checklists are fast and easy, with template options!) Email Addresses for Records - Automatically assign an email address for each record, so emails can be sent and stored in a record. Once again, this could be built into each record or added as its own field type. Stack and Card Customization - The kanban and gallery views would both benefit from adjustable sizing and placement options; the width of cards and stacks should be adjustable; the visible fields on cards should be configurable. I suggest these display options for each field: fit within fractions of the card width (1/4, 1/3, 1/2, or full), fit within a number of lines down, wrap info, shrink-to-fit, and ‘display everything’. Card Functionality - To further improve card-style views, the visible fields should be clickable and editable without having to open the full record. All white space can still be used to drag the card or open the record. Side-by-Side Record Views - Already a popular feature request. I suggest this for widescreen displays: open full record views on the left side of the screen. If a second full record is opened, display it on the right, then repeat this pattern for each new record opened. Alternatively, enable users to click and drag the location of the full record view. Form Validation - Enforce data validation when users fill out a form. If it requires an email address, prevent users from submitting the form until the proper email syntax is entered. Do the same for all applicable fields. Form Notifications - Enable customized email notifications for form respondents and workspace collaborators Phone options - the phone version needs significantly more functionality, but for now it just needs the ability to duplicate records and settings.

Currently the FREE plan allows for unlimited commenting and read-only users. This same feature is not available on paid plans which is something I really can’t understand… It does make sense to charge per user who creates and edits data, but to charge the same “seat price” for people who may simply leave some feedback once a month really makes no sense and severly limits the use of AirTable to the point we are considering switching out. Its even more inconsistent with the fact that this is an unlimited feature on the FREE plan that gets removed on paid plans. And as far as I know commenting on paid plans has no advantages or added features at all… So why charge for something that was already free and penalize paying users?? ... View more

At the moment we’re allowed to link the form to one table, I would like to have an option to link the form to several tables and so the data will be splitted into the tables according to the questions/columns :slightly_smiling_face: ... View more

Background: It has been raised a couple times before (here, here, here, here and here) but it is still not implemented. Feature request: Ability to specifiy a default value for date fields. We have default values for single line text field and number field, it is reasonable to ask for the same feature for date fields. Ideally let us put a formula there, such as: CREATED_TIME() DATEADD(TODAY(), 2, ‘week’) ... View more

I don't think presenting answers horizontally in a linear fashion is a new idea. It is fairly standard on feedback or survey forms. Can we make it an option rather than the default vertical display of answers for a question? ... View more

Filter Show/Hide Fields by Field Type The ability to filter the fields displayed in the Show/Hide vertical menu from the features bar on a Table. This would work in conjunction with the search functionality. This is handy when a Table has many fields and specific searching for specific field types. Conceptually this could be a dropdown list of multiselect field types OR a box below the search bar that has the different field type icons to select. Example: Filter only for Fields Types = Formula ... View more
