Hello everyone,  
Here’s how you can add a **“favorites” feature** to a list using **Data Source Filter Views** in Thunkable:

1. In your Data Source, create a **filter view** that will store your favorites.
2. Connect this filter view to your **Data Viewer**.
3. Create a **custom Data Viewer layout** that includes checkboxes, so users can select items as favorites.

For more details on setting up filter views, check out our docs here:
