Love this option! Have now an admin tab in the app for my children’s band. Works great!

I was using because it was the best way to filter by user email. And using the User Profiles sheet, I can optimize and reduce lines I’d duplicate creating another sheet for this.

That’s how I do sometimes.

With this feature, it would be great to be able to have a display name for the tab that is different to the name for the tab in the builder.

It would eliminate the hassle of identifying tabs in the builder where, for example, you create multiple dashboard tabs that both need to be called dashboard to the user.

@Mark Complementing with that. I found the same bug here

> I tried out your app a little bit yesterday and today. This is definitely weird. I was able to add dates, then they would all clear out. I let it sit for a bit, but they would only refill with my previously selected values when I refreshed the app. First enter date: A few seconds later, they wipe out: Waited 5 minutes for a possible refresh. Still no change. It wasn’t until I refreshed the browser window that I was able to come back in and see the dates:

Yes @Stephanie_Bonnet this will work for any tab, regardless of whether that sheet has been used in a tab already.

Now we have tab visibility, what about **Choose where user will sign-in in the app?** 🤔

Opening a new option of “hybrid” Sign-in… Public for wherever we like, but when user access a screen or button, a Log In pops up 🤯

I started using the tab visibility feature, but now when the app loads, I am sent to the first screen that’s not a conditional screen despite meeting the criteria for visibility. Has anyone else faced this? Is there a fix for this? It seems like a worse user experience to not land on the right screen when starting the app.

@Lisa @ThinhDinh I didn’t stop to post here yet but… I already tested and it’s really possible to do it! 🔥

This is not working for me setting visibility of tabs and components to “Role” is “Business”  
Tab and component shows even when I’m not logged in. I have a public app.
