You can use storage outside of Glide, which is a practical way if you encounter this problem.

In my experience, Glide does actually count the same file multiple times if it is referenced in multiple apps. If I duplicate an app that uses 4GB of storage, my usage increases to 8GB. Duplicate it again and I am now using 12GB. The actual files didn’t duplicate and the url is the same in both apps. In fact, it’s the exact same table. I don’t know if something is unique to only me, but I feel like I’m the only one who has noticed this as it has caused me issues with going over the team storage limit.

This should be discussed with Glide’s team. I completely agree with your perspective. Even though when applications within one team are not counted multiply like that, similar to the number of users. It should be more transparent in this regard to avoid confusion.

I remember back then, Classic Glide was very generous and didn’t focus too much on this calculation. Perhaps at that time, they hadn’t found a mechanism to calculate it yet. 😄

Unfortunately I don’t have any plans that received support. All I have are legacy plans, so I just have to deal with any bugs I come across and work around them the best I can.

I’ve brought up this issue and a handful of others in both this forum and in the expert channel, but I usually don’t get much of a response, so I don’t really bother mentioning bugs anymore unless someone else mentions a similar issue. I have a seperate forum post where I keep track of current bugs that have affected me, but it hasn’t resulted in much.

Yes, there are too many bugs in this new application. It’s really unfortunate… and very disruptive. What’s more, there hasn’t been any response to address them. This is what makes me look for many detours and shortcuts rather than discussing them.

Hi @Jeff_Hager . That’s good information… I’ll keep it in mind.

Do legacy plans receive no support or just less support?  
I reported a bug on the classic apps last month and they got around to fixing it so maybe you can try sending a report to the support team.

I don’t have access to the Contact Support button. I guess it’s been my understanding that legacy plans do not receive direct Glide support once they reach a “legacy” status. Only support through the community forum at that point. Maybe that’s different with Legacy Enterprise plans, but I’m not sure. To the best of my knowledge, only the current Maker, Team, Business, and Enterprise plans have access to Glide support.

Classic apps can exist in New as well as Legacy plans, so if you have a Classic App in a new paid plan, your experience may be different. I don’t have anything in any of the new plans at this point.

hmm… tbh, I had to search for the support button as it’s hidden behind some layers.  
When you open your app, do you see a question mark on the bottom-right?

If you do, click on that and then on “Get help”.

Do you see the third option (below)?

I guess it works in my Legacy Starter plan. Wasn’t aware of that as the traditional way of getting to support through the app settings menu isn’t showing as an option. With other Team folders, the support button you are showing only leads me suggestion Links to the Glide documentation. I also have a handful of apps that are very old and technically aren’t in a team folder. They were created before teams were a thing.

I guess I never saw the traditional button so I just kept digging until I found this, lol. I was desperate at the time.
