Is there any way to make user refresh an app, manually or even in a custom action ? Most of my apps do not refresh even if set correctly, certainly due to distance. ---

As in refresh the data? I’ve seen some hacky things by using a “refresh button” to increment a user profile column by 1 or by writing a new timestamp. ---

Yes … that should work … the best would be a “pull to refresh” but Glide team would have to implement actions when scrolling. ---

Right. I asked for this years ago. Here’s another use who requested. Upvote: > [@Pull-to-refresh!](https://community.glideapps.com/t/pull-to-refresh/14059): > > Hey guys! Recently, I’ve been experiencing a huge delay on my Glide apps. That’s because I have a lot of external scripts that performs updates directly onto the sheet, and on that cases, I know that Glide takes a little longer to update, forcing me to refresh it manually on the editor. I thought of an possible workaround that is simple, but powerful: Pull-to-refresh. For those who doesn’t know, this is Pull-to-refresh: [image] I think this may be available only to Pro apps, as it should in… ---

Maybe they have to manage the refresh calls and they have limits that should not be exceeded so as not to jeopardize the classification of the different plans. If they implement this, they don’t know how many times this feature will be used and maybe the calls to the server will be multiplied by 10 or even by 100. That’s an opinion.
