Hi @david

Lately Glide Team is staging huge insight improvements with data management, privacy, user administration and much more…

All this improvements allow Gliders to design better, more powerful and reliable apps…

but usability is still key in order to engage users…

I think this have been discussed before, but, in my opinion, this would be a relevant improvement. I can’t find an official request about this feature.

**In-app filtering should show which filters are applied.**

An example of how opaque is the filtered result for the user… in this case with a calendar tab.

Thanks for your attention…

Agree with the idea, I think we can have a number to indicate that the filter has been applied.

By the way, can’t I select multiple filters? Should I choose just one?

If you use the built-in filter then I believe you can choose multiple items.
