Apps by Airtable (Beta)

Apps by Airtable are out-of-the-box applications for daily business needs that don't require immediate building or development. Instead, our apps are ready to use but still dynamic enough for customization — helping accelerate value for people and teams by leveraging Airtable's flexibility.

Introduction 

Setting up apps by Airtable 

To set the pre-built Feedback app:
