Would you like your apps to add data to spreadsheet or database rows or send
messages to Slack channels? What about creating sales leads in Salesforce or
posting directly to Wordpress? Watch our video tutorial to learn how to
achieve this and more using the third-party Zapier service.
Calcapp supports making fields required, so that your users can't move on to
the next panel or submit reports before your forms have been properly filled
out. This tip walks you through the steps you need to take to make fields
required.
When our co-founder David was 21, his father asked him to create an app for
the hospital department where he worked. 15 years later, that request has
resulted in the Calcapp you know today. In this essay, David chronicles our
long history and the road that led us here.
You can now import spreadsheet data and use it with drop-down fields. Watch
our video tutorial to learn how to use the new feature. Also, customize the
loading screen and use powerful new formula functions to process text.
Finally, new color themes make it a snap to experiment with app colors.
Import spreadsheet data directly for use with drop-down fields. Paste the data
from your table into our app to automatically generate Calcapp formulas.
Values of drop-down fields can now be edited as text. This feature makes it
possible to paste values from a spreadsheet all at once. It also enables more
efficient keyboard editing.
Our latest sample app converts spreadsheet column data to formulas for use
with drop-down fields. This app uses regular expressions heavily and this post
explains in detail how it was built.
You can now customize the loading screen, also known as the splash screen.
Change the colors or hide the logo, the progress indicator or both. You can
also fully disable the loading screen, which is useful for apps embedded in
websites.
You can now set base colors for your entire app through the start screen.
These colors affect not just your panels but also the loading screen. We have
also added a theme selector with five pre-defined color themes to allow you to
more easily experiment with colors.
Calcapp enables you to create apps that might otherwise have been
created using a spreadsheet. Create apps yourself without
time-consuming and expensive custom software development.
