Help Identifying the Template Used for My Father's App

Hello,

I’m a Japanese high school student, so my English might not be perfect—sorry about that!

I want to create a calendar app for my family, who are farmers. My father previously made a calendar app, but it’s not perfect, and I want to improve it or make a new one.

I’ve tried copying his app, but it doesn’t seem to be exactly the same. Then, I tried making a new app, but I noticed that the options in each app are different. I think this might be because they were made using different templates.

Unfortunately, my father forgot which template he used. How can I find out which template was used for his app?

Thank you for your help!

Does the app your father made say “Classic”?

The app does say “Classic”! I’m surprised. So that means it’s difficult to recreate the exact same app using the new version of Glide, right? Now it makes sense why the layout was different when I tried copying it.

I have one more question. Right now, I’m using Google Sheets to connect with the app, but when I click on an item, the next screen shows all the columns from the spreadsheet. I would like to hide the columns that don’t need to be displayed in the app. How can I do that?

Some components are not moved over to the new version, and the layout options also differ a bit, but if you want to make an attempt, there’s this “New app from data” option.

It sounds like you’re just seeing the default generated screen. You can remove the columns/components you don’t need from the left-hand side panel.
