Hi @Farshad,

Can you be a little bit more specific about the number of screens you are planning to add in?

@domhnallohanlon Thank you for answering

in one column1 a list that by list item click the list will be invisible opens the row2 with label in it , and to add a new item on the same list , which, when button3 click, the column1 and row2 will invisible and row3 with text inputer opens

Is it better to use a new page to display each row?

This sounds like @Jimmy’s quote of the day app:

You only need one UI to display the contents of your database.
