What does the Data Setting “while editing or using app” give me, my app does not use google sheets. ![Untitled](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/f/6fbd9567550898b99c69e8e424c56724a85c8503.jpeg) I am looking for a way to get better response to updates. Right now there is about a 3 second delay in updating between one user and another user. ---

That setting probably won’t make a difference if you are not using google sheets. It’s just to force glide to periodically check the sheet for any updates to a sheet that may not have been sent from google to glide. If you are having lag between users on different devices, I guess I would expect that because the app needs to synchronize to the glide server before the server synchronizes data with all other app user’s. ---

That is what I thought. Thanks for confirming.
