Airtable doesn’t “load slow” so there’s something in your code that is causing the issue.
Post a screenshot of your blocks.

Fair enough. You’re not required to share your project or a screenshot but it’s almost impossible to help you if you don’t. I’ve made hundreds of projects in Thunkable and I can spot a problem when I see one. There are simple fixes sometimes that make a huge difference.

If there are issues with third-party integations, and you are certain the issue is not with your blocks or settings, it can also be useful to check their status pages.
