Hi there, I want to make a calendar app, so I need to display the days in a specific month. I would like to display the days in a Data Viewer Grid, so the user can select the appropriate one. However, Thunkable updates the values in a Table Data Source extremely slow. Method 1 I tried: (took 23 s…

In Method 1, you are: Calling an API and waiting for the response Looping through a list using a stored variable Creating rows in a data source Each of those is a slow-ish process. But there are some things you can do/consider: How long does the API response take? I once used an API that took …

check this out! https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6358829b13bd2c31d1f0fbc6 My calendar project is fast af using a layout component and a JavaScript library to produce the dates.

Thank you for the answers and sorry for my late response. I created a smaller project to present my problem, because it is not related to the API, stored variable or the number of the rows like @tatiang suggested. I have 4 examples on how the Data Viewer List/Grid gets slower and slower. I hope th…

The results in my previous post was from my iOS device. Testing the same app on an Android device results: Example 1: 0.69 seconds Example 2: 4.84 seconds Example 3: 9.37 seconds Example 4: 14.36 seconds So in Android the situation is even worse. Live apps and built apps produce the same result…

It took 5 seconds on an Android device to just display a DVG?! How many rows does that data source have? Is it taking that long because as you scroll down, the data isn’t visible until you wait a little and then scroll down again and then wait…?

The local table data source speed issue has been comented on several times over the last few years including by myself in March 21, Local Data Source Table very slow I have very recently revisited the DVL combined with Local table and discovered the speed isuue is still present.

So the faster alternatives are to use Firebase or the Airtable API. Unfortunately, both of those require you to use clones instead of the built-in data sources. I do think this is a problem Thunkable should fix - if they can. We really should be able to rely on the DVL/DVG as is.

[image] tatiang: It took 5 seconds on an Android device to just display a DVG?! How many rows does that data source have? Yes it took 5 seconds. However, I think that it depends on the phone’s performance, because on an Galaxy S8+ (with screen recorder turned on) it took 9+ seconds to display…

That’s whack. I’d use the layouts component. I have already shared how to build a calendar using it. [image] Fun Share: Calendars in Thunkable Free Templates, Designs, and Block Combinations Here’s a calendar that’s made using the Luxon javascript library, the web viewer,…
