Features & Enhancements

Item Description
Performance Enhancement Improved performance for apps with many tables (> 5).

Apps with many tables (> 5) on enterprise accounts will see improved sync performance. The change causes more tables to be fetched in parallel, thereby reducing the overall time waiting for syncs to complete.

Deployment: To be rolled out gradually to all accounts.

Feature Added a Signout button to the Account dropdown on the editor page.
Feature Add new strings from the filtering UI to the Localize options. Strings such as "Has attachment" and "Start date" are included.

Available in the Preview program only.

Bug Fixes

Item Description
Bug Previously, when an integer step value was chosen for a numeric column, we assumed all the values should be integers and showed the telephone-type number input. This behavior was confusing and has been removed.
