Dear Thunkable Team,
I am a dedicated Thunkable user and have been thoroughly enjoying using your platform to create a wide range of applications. I appreciate the effort you put into making app development accessible to users like myself.
I have a suggestion that, in my opinion, could greatly enhance the capabilities of Thunkable, especially in terms of local database usage. Currently, we can store and retrieve data from a local database, which is fantastic. However, the ability to retrieve rows based on field values, rather than just record IDs, would make Thunkable even more powerful and versatile.
Here’s a brief overview of the functionality I’m proposing:
- Add the capability to filter rows from a local database based on field values.
- Allow users to specify field names, comparison operators (e.g., equals, greater than, less than), and values to filter rows based on their specific criteria.
- This enhancement would empower developers to work with local databases more flexibly, reducing the reliance on online databases for certain applications while maintaining data security within the app.
I understand that implementing this feature might require some development effort, but I believe it would greatly benefit Thunkable users who want to create more complex and secure applications. This feature would open up a world of possibilities for creating dynamic and data-driven apps using local databases.
I kindly request that you consider this feature request and add this functionality in a future update. I believe it would be a valuable addition to Thunkable, benefiting both beginner and advanced users.
Thank you for your attention to this request, and I look forward to seeing how Thunkable continues to evolve and improve.
Best regards,
Cherian Jacob
