It shouldn’t be with plan. If you have too much in your app (screens, components, tables, columns, etc) it will take time to load.

You could use the little performance analyser button on top left of the data editor and see if something comes up!

Do you have this problem if you create a new application?

Does your first screen upon loading contain a lot of said images? Is there a possibility to have a first screen being something that doesn’t require loading a lot of images?

Thanks , I’ve created a new “testing” App and I found that the issue is related to users access settings as the following:-

1. If I configure the app to ask for a user profile it takes around 15S to open.
2. If I configure the app to open without user profile it takes less than 4S.  
same observations for my original app.  
I found that the log-in time with required user profile configuration take more time for apple devices more than the time required by Android devices.

It will increase the amount to load because the app has to determine which rows the user has access to.

It’s not a discouragement for you to not to use it, but an explanation on why it takes time, especially if you use it in many tables.

Hey, I’m on the free plan, but it’s happening to me sometimes. It’s normal, just give it some time and it’ll be ok 😃
