Airtable

I found this app when it became compatible with Siri shortcuts. I was struggling to connect it with my shortcut and reached out to the developers for some assistance. The app itself is great. It is everything you could hope. Totally user friendly. Simple and streamlined, and also capable of handling very complex and intricate applications as well. It is also cross platform so it can be truly accessible. Back to my story: I was met promptly with loads of help. And when I responded with some well deserved praises, I was given some swag with a very sincere hand written thank you. I say this not so that everyone reaches out or get frustrated if you don’t get the response I did, but to point out how important this company is to the people who created this. And it was done so knowing that the user is what will help catapult the company forward by doing exactly what they have done, create an amazing product and ensuring it runs very smooth. Sucheta, you rock. And thanks for your help. Best wishes!

As an organizational freak myself, I love the customization and abilities this app has to offer. I’ve recommended it to everyone, and even set it up for my husband to use on his phone. It’s a great app for organizing everything, which is exactly what I need. The thing I’d recommend to be fixed is the ability to add/select multiple attachments at once. This is my biggest con with the app. I add numerous photos to my Airtable records sometimes and it’d be way easier to be able to select MULTIPLE photos at once to add as attachments, rather than uploading one at a time. Also the ability for the photos to be uploaded with their original date of photo taken rather than the date of when the photo was added to the Airtable. Secondly, the ability to move items from one table to another. Instead of having to make a copy of all those items onto another table, the ability to move single items into another table. Some items I create are no longer relevant to that table and the choice to move it to a different table within the spread would be helpful. That would genuinely make the app perfect overall.

I started Airtable to fill one specific need, but as time went on, I realized that it fills almost every niche I was trying to find an app/program for. I’m odd with organization. In the past, I’ve had to use multiple notes apps for some things because I just want separate databases and portals for certain things. But now, if it’s something I can squeeze to work with Airtable (which is a lot), I don’t have to worry about that due to the sheer amount of layers it has with databases. This app has actually made me stop in my tracks because sometimes I don’t even know how I want to go about using it. That’s how open it is. I use Airtable databases for everything from what albums I’ve listed to to keeping track of passwords and identities. It fills the purpose of multiple apps, and I’m not using anything else for those purposes any time soon.

Airtable (on Mac OS, Web and PC) is one of the best and most well developed pieces of software on the market! I’ll bet you could find at least a half dozen uses for it no matter what your personal or professional needs are!! One of the best features of Airtable (along side being able to filter, sort and group information) is the ability to format the layout of your information into five different “views.” These “views” are extremely powerful and allow you to quickly access and manipulate data for practically any application, implementing virtually limitless workflows. However, the iOS app is terrible! The layout is extremely inefficient for screen real estate on a phone or tablet. The fact that you can only access 1 of the 5 “views” makes the mobile app almost useless. The features that you can use are very cumbersome and ‘pagey’ to navigate —making actions take a long time. Please support Airtable, but please also rate the app as the app and not the overall service. The AT team needs feedback like this to improve their mobile app(s).

I have searched and searched for an app to organize things like I want to. This is an app that I have dreamed of for literal years. As an aspiring author, the templates were incredibly helpful and gave me a place to begin with the organization process. I was able to expand with the incredible helpful, well... help! Everything was so clear, and what seemed to be difficult and impossible became so simple and easy!! I’ve had this app for a couple of hours and already know so many things I could do with it. I also love that a lot of good features are included with the free, which doesn’t limit me (someone who doesn’t have a job) to mediocre features. Every available feature on the free version is fantastic—something I can’t say about other apps. Overall, if I could rate an app 6 stars, this would be the one I would do that for.
