Big thanks to @chrismessina for hunting us! We created Thunkable to enable anyone to build native mobile apps for both Android and iOS. One of the most frequent requests we’ve had from our users is for a Spreadsheet Integration. With this new feature you can create powerful no-code apps from real data in Google Sheets, Airtable, or a local table. While we were beta testing, our users created apps to automate workflows, track customers, use as a CRM, create a task tracker, build surveys. It’s great to officially announce this integration to the Product Hunt community and we would love to hear from you :)

This feature is absolutely awesome! It's really intuitive to integrate with bunch of data. I tried it on Thunkable, and it's really helpful.

This is awesome!! Would be really cool to also be able to pull structured data from a table on a webpage and turn it into an app. Have you seen cases where people want to turn their website into mobile app?

@nikilster Thanks! We purposefully built this out to be extensible and enable users to swap data sources (from any integration) easily without changing much else in their app. Part of that process will be evaluating what additional integrations will be most useful and what you're suggesting is definitely something that is on our radar. We've had cases where people have translated their sites into mobile apps but, like you mentioned, it would be great to enable them to do so without needing to move their data. We also recently launched the ability for users to publish their apps on web as well. So, if you don't already have an existing site, you can build for web, Android, and iOS on our platform with all sharing the same data source(s).

So cool! I can totally see this being useful for so many things. What are some of the cool use cases you've seen / built for?

@thejoelau Thank you! It is still relatively new to our users so we are excited to see what they come up with. Some of the use cases we've seen within the team internally while testing have been company directories, sports app (you can see the NHL teams in a screenshot), simple task tracker, company Q&A question submission and tracking, board game collection tracking, and a few others. It is built to be flexible and usable with all of the existing Thunkable components so the possibilities are pretty broad.

Thanks Thunkable Developers for this amazing update. I have a question and it's really urgent for my current project. I wanna ask how to make the data viewer list works when we pressed/swipe it? Example I created a data viewer list restaurant menus. Once I chose Mashed Potato, I want it to direct me to a new page for Mashed Potato. Can anyone help me regarding this problem? I'm sorry for my bad English. Thanks
Kennard Kenji
Please share the project so I can saw and understanding the blocks too. It's really important for my project guys, it's almost the deadline. I'm literally frustrated by this problem. I also can't direct a new screen without creating a new tab, because I'm using bottom tab navigator

@kennard_kenji sorry for the frustration Kennard - take a look at Steve's NHL sample app which displays data when clicked: https://docs.thunkable.com/data-...

I've been using Thunkable for more than a year now and so far this is the best thing they've implemented to their working pipeline. Thunkable always is innovating and listens to their very active community. I really like how now we can customize our data viewers to have a more professional feel to any apps we make with fewer blocks and with just one component instead of many. Implementing databases in apps is easier than ever with Thunkable.

I've been using Thunkable X for close to two years now, and have successfully published my apps to both iOS and Android app stores. The designer is beautiful, creating a modern app UI can be done within minutes, and programming that UI is just as easy with the intuitive block interface. The team behind Thunkable are awesome, very kind and knowledgeable, I feel supported if I ever come across an issue. If you're looking to build your next mobile app with no code, Thunkable is your solution. Fast, simple, exceptional.

@eoin_parkinson thanks Eoin, we're lucky to have you in the Thunkable Community and it's always amazing to see your latest apps.
