@Leo@Tim Now that we are officially out of Q1 2025, is there any roadmap update on any of the things that were planned to be launched by Q1 end? Should the roadmap be updated to reflect the updated timelines? Iāve been pointing a lot of my clients to the roadmap so was just expecting it to be updated with the most recently available information.
Show the names of the linked apps with the linked field in a calculation field. There is currently no way to find out, which app is linked. Field names are not unique. So the linked app needs to be easily recognisable with the linked field.
Thats a pretty tough job, if you want to analyse existing code in calculation fields currently.
Just like @andrew.cranston points out, it would be very helpful for me to have an idea of the timeline for releasing new developments (especially the webforms in my case). As it has implications for projects Iām currently designingā¦ Thanks!
We recently updated our roadmap, thanks again for your note @andrew.cranston. You were absolutely right, the timeline needed an update!
There are still a few basic building blocks weāre working on, where weāre using some new technology. This makes it a bit hard to give an exact timeline right now. However, weāve already finished many features that are currently held back because they depend on other parts still in progress. In the roadmap, weāve marked these as āReady ā Blockedā so itās clear whatās done but not yet ready to ship.
Weāre not just building web forms on top of the current system. Instead, weāre rebuilding the whole app and field creation process to match what our community needs, now and in the future. Thatās why weāre also working on several important features that will help create a better experience overall and avoid rework later.
A good example is field-level access. A feature many of you have asked for. Itās already completed but currently still blocked by other dependencies. Once released, it will make it easy to control who can see or edit specific fields. Since this works directly on the field level, it doesnāt just affect forms, but also records and views throughout Tape. Thatās why it needs to be built into the system upgrade from the start.
Weāre working hard to deliver the first version to you as soon as possible. Once thatās in place, weāll be able to move quickly and build out many of the requests and ideas youāve shared. Thanks again @dirk_s for collecting all those suggestions ā theyāre incredibly helpful!
Man, reading the roadmap makes me so damn excited. You know youāre on to something when your customers are celebrating features that havenāt even been released yet. This company is amazing!
Many of you have been waiting for a preview - and we totally get it, because itās already starting to feel really good.
Today, weāre excited to share a video showing the latest progress.
Some examples:
Form creation process - itās super easy to create new forms - and it already feels really smooth
Rename field ā instant, inline renaming of fields without leaving context
Mass changes ā e.g., set multiple fields to ārequiredā across multiple fields at once
Edit style ā update field styles, label positions, or placeholders
Dynamic columns ā add, remove, and reorder columns
Rules ā enabling conditional logic like showing/hiding fields based on input
Field access ā define field-level access to control visibility
The same technology will also power the new record experience.
(Please note: some details may still change as we are currently running lots of tests)
As you can see, a lot is already coming together, but thereās still a lot on our roadmap before the launch is complete, as I mentioned a few days ago ā here
Anyway, weāre officially opening the waitlist for Forms today.
Weād like to invite you to get early access ā https://get.tapeapp.com/forms/
Thank you so much for your ongoing support and patience. Weāre super excited for whatās coming! Whenever we hit another good milestone, weāll share another video with you.
Please donāt forget the mobile record search upgrade (much like pc). Thanks @Dirk for your summary (it appears to be missing the mobile search revamp though).
One of the main things I need is the ability to update records from the mobile app. The search is great, but giving my user the ability to update a record is a necessity. The app is a list of coffee shops that are located near hospitals. The users would have the ability to search for a coffee shop, but then also update the record with notes, ratings, favorite drinks, is there parking, food, etcā¦ Being able to do this on the go is a HUGE PLUS for the usability of the application/database.
Right now Iām trying to figure out the best way to do this with what is available. Can I use a google form? I was thinking of having them leave a comment on the record with a special format that would kick off an automation that would update the record. But that is clunky at best
Thanks! Iām digging in and have the basic list,details, edit and create mini app screens created and working. I am wondering though if you know how to do a filter (search) on the list of items?
Hi team, weāre really looking forward to the mobile app update. Our team heavily relies on mobile access, especially since our boss travels frequently and needs to manage records on the go. Several of our staff also depend on using the CRM via phone for daily operations. Right now, the lack of mobile record creation and editing is a major challenge for us. Hoping to hear some good news soon. This update will make a big difference for our workflow!
Looks Amazing!
Regarding web forms there should be a feature to prepopulate form fields VIA get example webformlink?first_name=Jane&last_name=Doe etcā¦
Example use case embed in my dialer for my cold callers as weblink. This would be a huge time saver for my team.
Hi Im trying to access the web forms and the webinar, I dont see a way to access the webinar after I click the link. Iām getting Form closed to new submissions, but i signed up when it was first anounced. Is there anyway I can watch a recorded version of the webinar?
