- Price
- Ease of use
- Scope of functionality
- Fosters a vibrant community
- App documentation
- Provide more options for customizing the user interface.

- Continue to work on making the experience intuitive for no-coders.
Best product for any fresh user with no code background with needs of managing every aspect of business
- Useful Community with instant help / advices
- Lots of samples for beginners to play with
- Proactive Help Desk
- Video Display
- Calendar Display can be more clear / detail
- SME, moderate team.
- Lots of field works.
- High turn over rate.

My AppSheet Review
- Easy for app creation
- Super easy UI design for apps
- Super easy google cloud data integration
- Easy to understand for medium users
- Best choice for rapid app development and implementation
Tracking people for control in the facilities.
Show in an easy way data from google sheets.
AppSheet is good, with conditions!!!
- Display data in a more friendly way
- Simple and intuitive, easy to learn
- Create fast automations
- Improve user interface
- Working with files still needs some workaround for specific routines
- Views such as kanban, gant and more button options missing
- AppSheet could charge only owner and admin users
Create an App Out of a G Sheet in Seconds
- User-friendly (Developing and End-user side)
- Ultra-fast creation of an app out of a g-sheet
- Zero bugs
- Super useful small details (e.g. Bar/QR-code scanner)
- Simple text/image/video pages which could be easily stored in a g-sheet/g-slide (e.g. training material)
- User specific access (e.g. define access to certain parts of the DB based)
- The automation part is too complicated for me (it might be actually counter-intuitive or it might need better documentation/training)
- Embedding G-forms directly in the app
I recomend AppSheet
- flexibility
- accesibility
- speed
- Icons and details in UX could be better
A real discovery
- Create a multiplatform app within minutes
- Integrate a variety of field types
- Automatically defining relationships between data
- User Roles
- Security filters
- Importing fields from a related table to be displayed in a separate view
The Best Enabler for Small Businesses like ours!
- Quick to setup.
- Simple to use.
- Works on multiple platforms on the go.
- Great documentation and support.
- Allows one to be really creative.
- Once the tables / UX Views get way too many in number, it can become a little daunting to manage. This part of the UX may need something really smarter.
- Ability to Undo.
- Could provide more UI Look and Feel options. BTW, the new Graphs look great, but have some bugs, while the new INPUT() feature is a great addition too.
I developed an app for my company using AppSheet
In short, the application is responsible for:
Registering users and their personal and professional characteristics.
Defining physical zones of the workplace (in this case, a floating dry dock).
Defining the departments that the company has to carry out the different tasks related to keeping the workplace operational (in this case, a floating dry dock).
Defining the systems that make up the workplace and allow its different activities (electrical, mechanical, lifting, anchoring, etc., etc.).
Logbook that allows each employee to update their personal information from their cell phone, record their daily tasks and send a report to their supervisors.
Report creation.
Inventory registration in warehouses.
Presentation of documents to the staff that works within the facilities.
Record of the work carried out for the different clients (In this case, maintenance work on ships).
And many more activities.
- Trustworthy
- Easy to use.
- Adaptable
- More display options in the presentation to the end user of the apps.
- It should be possible, to generate a standard app that can be sold massively in white.
- Allowing me to have a working app in minutes
- Assistance with difficult items on the forums
- ability to download my data easily through google drive
- The back office reporting, things like creation of dashboards for specific users
Low-Code/No-Code as Promised and is Feature rich
- Keep the process simple for non-tech users.
- Provides great documentation and user support.
- Offers plans that don't cost a lot for very small groups needing a solution.
- Help with how the end-user gets the app to use.
Something about AppSheet
- Build sale management app
- Built human resource management app
- Build field sale management app
- AppSheet can help small and medium company improve work process however it need to improve more on user interface, sync speed
- Integration with Google Sheets
- BoT Presentation
- Easy and Handy to Present without any code knowledge
- Support
- When I started the license was upto 10 users, where we find difficult to implement the L&D with limited license. Have not yet deployed the app, need to do now to check how it works
Consulting + Appsheet = A new world to organize your entrepreneurship and your personal productivity.
- Creation of Applications for Financial Management.
- Creation of productivity person APP.
- Creation of APP for project management.
- Although there is a lot of study material, it takes time to understand the full potential of the Appsheet.
- Although all the material [are] in English, it is possible to access translations or learn in the forums and in an intuitive way.
- The simplest apps can be created with the free version, for more complex functions or to achieve certain distributions, a license must be paid per user.
AppSheet is Powerful and Fun to Use
- As a no-code development platform, AppSheet makes developing apps fast.
- AppSheet allows us to use many different data sources such as Google Sheets and SQL.
- AppSheet has a great community that is very supportive of each other.
- AppSheet is fun to develop on.
- For certain types of applications with high user counts, AppSheet subscription fees can get a little expensive.
- Applications built on AppSheet are very responsive to phones, tablets, and computers but it would be nice if it had a computer-specific layout.
AppSheet, An Excellent tool for optimizing the time consuming task of collecting and organizing data in field surveys
- Being able to prepare an app almost without coding and without the need for a developer account is incredibly powerful.
- Working on multiple platforms is a real bonus. I have been able to work with both Android and iOS devices on the field, without any kind of problems.
- Developing, [...] testing, and refining the app is a very fluid process.
- With a little extra work, and some extra programming, [multiple] language apps can be created.
- Registering tracks would be a very good bonus for my line of work.
- When creating a new app from a Google sheet, fields used as names or separators in the app structure could benefit from a clever way to be detected, similarly to other types of fields.
- Setting personalized icons, besides the ones available, would also be a bonus.
In my particular case, it is less appropriate for linear geolocated data, as I cannot store tracks.
AppSheet goes above and beyond
- Easily connects to databases
- Converts spreadsheet cells into correct columns
- Turnkey solution, from development to marketplace admission
- Creating an interface that allows users to drag and drop elements (e.g., let users order a list by simply dragging and dropping named elements)
- Easily creating a quiz with a score table
- Improving dashboard features like letting developer decide axis minimums and maximums
- Embedding URLs, such as GDS, so users could have a great dashboard (output from the database) in the same app that has the inputs to the database
It's not so great at quizzes with a score table.
Great experience, want to be reseller
- Easy to build the application
- Good support available in community or videos etc.
- Functionality: many solutions provided by appsheet to make comprehensive app
- Printing PDF report is the main frustration for me: the formatting (header, footer, margins, size of the pictures) did not much my expectations
Generating PDF report similar to WORD document is not working, footer, header, formatting functions are not flexible.
AppSheet Review
- Synchronizes data from spreadsheets.
- Updates live from One Drive data sources.
- Has handy layouts for using own data.
- Has great YouTube instruction videos.
- Has a vibrant community.
- Provides live webinars to walk through different actions.
- Expectation management, i.e. telling app creators before they share what their first readers can expect, i.e. download AppSheet, etc.
- More end to end, single track how-to processes. It is hard to wrench in own starting position into processes from a different direction to a different destination.
- It would be ideal to gather how-to questions from users to create step by step chronological routes to reach these results.
Make no-code apps from common spreadsheet data
- No-code app creator
- Quickly create app-based solutions
- Great support and community
- Some minor features are still in beta
AppSheet is probably less suited toward once-off or very short-term problems with very complex data relations as the amount of effort into the app may be more than finding a more manual or mundane way of handling the data.
Best App for making Apps in a short time
- It is like MS Access and very easy to use.
- It is free to use for up to 10 users. That is enough for home, personal and official tasks that bother us in day to day life.
- It does not require us to have our own database, manage it, pay for it. All it needs is Google Sheets to make an app.
- It asks for authentication every time and does not open automatically in Android.
- Entering a lot of data is not an easy task with the app so we have to use Google Sheets to enter data manually
- Unique Key is bit problematic, when we have to edit Google Sheets directly.
- Rows cannot be scrolled in table view in the app. UI is limited but does all the work we need to do.
AppSheet at a glance
We collect business growth opportunities, create cross-reference look-ups, share contact info, trade show information, etc. Less than 10 people currently create apps, and about 140 users occasionally make use of various apps, but we expect this to grow.
- Enables non-programmers to create apps fairly quickly.
- The web-based interface shows how the app looks on mobile devices prior to deployment.
- Web-based version allows office users to make use of PC instead of mobile device.
- Add help buttons next to each function that would explain functions in more detail.
- Would like to be able to make workflows run by clicking a button.
AppSheet as business agility
- Mobile GPS capturing
- Agile development
- SQL Connectivity for PRO Version
- Better use of screen real estate for desktop apps
My AppSheet Review Sum Up
- Easy to use features (4 out of 5) for tech users and developers who have basic background on computer programming logic. Moderate (3 out of 5) for other types of users.
- Perfect UI and UX of the software, makes it easier to operate.
- Free version is enough for small and personal projects.
- Lack of theme and color ranges for the UI and UX
- Some features are hard to use for normal users who do not quite understand programming logic.
- Free version: For small projects and personal projects which do not require many complex features.
- Paid version: Excellent for normal users who do not have much computer programming logic.
