My app works, almost everything is on BigTables. A very big problem, it is impossible to improve the app when users are working in it, every time a column is changed or a new column is added to the database, users are thrown to the main screen of the app.

Users are starting to complain, my team also can’t develop the app at night. How to get out of this situation?

By “users,” do you mean app editors (team members) or end users (app visitors)?

Oh, that’s the problem! I don’t use Big Table — only MySQL and Google Sheets as my databases — and I’m fetching data directly with no issues using that method. You’ll need to wait for the Glide team on this one.

How fast is data updated in MySQL?

I use my own API, so it’s almost instant.
