Free app: meeting room scheduler - user access for booking the meeting room from the link

Hi Friends: I made a meeting room scheduler app on a free plan: there are two display screens for this, one is a display for the meeting room and other is a Booking Form screen, which is used to book the meetings, but, when I share it only give display screen, and not the booking screen, can any one help me out? I want to try it before I go for the paid plan, I want to make sure that reservation of meeting rooms is available from the links that I share to the users.

How are you trying to determine which device shows which screen?

You can use device screen size to control screen visibility, but if you don’t have control of the type of device being used, then it’s not a reliable method. There are other hacky methods to identify a specific device, but they are also not reliable.

A better option would be to have separate users for display and booking and then display the appropriate screen based on user or user role.

The best option in my opinion is to create separate apps with linked tables. One for booking and one for display.

I can think of other methods that would be quite reliable, but none that are natively supported in glide.

Hello Jeff, Thank you so much for your response, I have spent a lot of time in making this, with the features of RED when busy and GREEN when available, with a Success message when booking done and no overlapping approval. So, making another will take a lot of time, and I will have 3 separate screens on the meeting room walls, that will only display the room status available/busy. and I need the user whom I sent the link to be able to book the meeting by booking form, but, when I share the link, the user get only Display Screen. Glide says there is 14 days plan to test, but, I don’t get that as well, to test, and when ok, I’ll go for the paid plan, and it will be a continuous one, but, I am stuck here in verifying how I can send a proper link to the user..

Or you could just use the duplicate app option in the dashboard to make a copy in seconds and adjust each app as necessary.

You haven’t really answered my first question of how are you trying to determine which device shows which screen? Can’t help without knowing how you are attempting to make the same app work so it only displays room status or only displays the booking form.

Not sure I’m completely following the here, but the free trial is available if you choose the business plan.
