Glide mobile app VS Glide web pages

Hi, just starting to test Glide Pages.

My conclusion (after only 1h working on it, so I may have missed some elements) is that it has clearly a great potential, but at this stage, it is still in its infancy in comparison to Glideapps.

The “plus” that I see are mainly:

  • containers
  • navigating menu
  • sub actions (ex. add a button in the image of an inline list, cf picture below)
  • breadcrumbs
  • various “title” component formats
  • Of course, the webapp look & feel (responsive)

But:

  • no text component out of rich text
  • no custom action in “sharing”, “rich text”, “form”…
  • no “comments”, “private note”
  • less customization on image
  • no webview
  • no edit screen (but can be simulated with a button + custom action)
  • only 1 type of button format
  • chart component availability?
  • not clear if “google sign in” is possible
  • we cannot migrate our Glideapps to Glidepages
  • cannot test the app with other users without subscribing
  • pricing is just impossible (Glide team announced that they will review it in 2022)

Just a fresh feedback

Cheers
