Do you have any good use cases for this? I’m so used to building a Profile tab I don’t know what to do with this release lol.

Use case: Not having to create a Profile tab. 😃  
But do you guys see an option to edit the Profile details?

@ThinhDinh

I added a hint text and link to terms and conditions 👍

Felt it was a good place for them (at the moment)

I agree with @sardamit. I haven’t done it but it was my first thought.

Would have to be a link to screen with entry fields I guess.

I have a client that didn’t want a separate myProfile screen. Wanted a list of all favorited items across the app:

I’m starting to really like this new setup, but really, the thing it needs is the ability to edit User Profile fields straight from this screen. Linking to a screen with text entry fields, etc. isn’t the best process and allows for some fields to be blanked out entirely (can’t be made “required” since they’re not opening in a form/edit environment). I’ve tried setting a minimum length of 1 to my text fields, but the Back button still allows someone to get around that condition and a user could end up leaving their name blank, for example. A true Edit button (or Edit Item Action — even better) would be the best way to make this new setup the only User Profile area anyone should need.

A feature request would be **Navigate to Tab** be able to go to User Profile screen.

This way we can create actions to the app get there after an onboarding screen, for instance

I have found that my users rarely hit the hamburger menu and I question if users would hit the user profile within unless there was a call to action like “Edit Profile”.

p.s. Given Glide’s non-human readable URL structure I am not sure if I can quantify that observation in google analytics.

Is it possible to make a tab the same as ‘user profile’ ?

I keep on thinking that it may be difficult for users to find this screen.

Link to screen isn’t working. Independent screen configuration per item for details isn’t showing Independent configuration.
