Filtered (Custom) list views doesn't apply when viewing in SharePoint mobile app
I have a custom view setup with some filters defined (on a couple of columns). This view is set to default for desktop and mobile view.
It works fine on desktop view of SPO. But when viewed in the mobile app (both iOS and Andiord), the full list displays, i.e. as if the filter in the custom view didn't work or wasn't applied.
Is this a bug with the mobile app?
- From my findings, the views do work on the Mobile Microsoft Lists App, ONLY if the filter does not contain dynamic content (e.g. [Me])... This is a massive problem for us due to using views to construct granular permissions to specific items within the list.
I don't know how this is still a problem all these years later... I think the Mobile View settings for Views only apply when viewing your list using a mobile browser instead of the SharePoint mobile app. The SharePoint Mobile app doesn't seem to take these settings into account (yet?)...
If this is the case, how can the list be restricted based on the logged user? If it's not possible, can we at least disable the SharePoint mobile app access to certain site collections paulpascha
Wids-233Are you talking about permissions here? List Views should not be used to restrict access. You should restrict access by granting the required permissions to your content. Permissions will then be taken into account when browsing the contents in the mobile app.
- Agree with Paul here!
