Hi there,

I’m totally new to this and have been tinkering around with some fun PWA ideas.

I’ve created multiple apps so far for personal use, but some people have asked that I share the apps with them. When I’ve tested this, the apps sync in real time (yes I know it does this already), but is there a way to localize the application per device? If someone I share the app to makes a change it changes it everywhere obviously. Is there a way to prevent this?

Again I am incredibly new to this and am learning. Sorry if this is a dumb question.

What are the nature of the changes that they are making?

You might want to take a look at [User Specific Columns](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/product/data-editor/user-specific-columns).
