It still doesn’t load if you press the refresh button in the Glide Editor?

Changes to rows in your sheet should update in your app within 3 minutes. If this is not the case, please make us a video with [loom.com](http://loom.com) showing where it’s not updating.

The only way it could take longer is if your sheet has become incompatible with your app (if you delete a column or sheet used in your app). In this case, syncing stops indefinitely until you manually reload in Glide.
