I have been experimenting with Glide Apps over the past few days. Basically, Glide offers the opportunity to generate mobile apps using Google Sheets as a data source. Glide offers a wonderfully intuitive user experience when building apps. There are however, some items I would love to see:
Currently, Glide offers a "Search" component, it would however, be amazing to provide filter buttons to update the view based on certain criteria. For example, you can currently provide a list of items, however, would it not be great to enable a switching mechanism based on a field with a specific set of values. For example, if you had an internal app listing project, the "main" view would show a listing of all the projects. However, you could have a "Status" colum, with enum values such as "In Progress" and "Live". Based on that, you could then offer buttons, to toggle the view between listings that were "Live" or "In Progress" etc.
The addition of the Map component is fantastic, however, it would be even better if the Map listing could be delimited to a specified area from the user's current location (if enabled) or based on a location entered by the user. This is a fairly common use case in terms of map/location based activities.
Instagram video is becoming a very large part of video distribution, as such, it would be fantastic to have the ability to display/embed an Instragram video within an app. For example, specifiy a video column, then based on the url, could display a player for a YouTube, Vimeo or Instagram video.
