When you use a database to fill a layout element, with 'multiple rows' selected, you can set the order of display.
However, this is limited to a singe key - it really needs to be multiple keys. Even the simple example (Contacts) is not effective - having e.g. all the 'Smith"s in random order rather than sub-oder by first name.
A 'table' element allows sorting by multiple keys - though I can't remember how to do that, or how get there. The navigation is, I find, sometimes unclear.
Also, the 'nocode' dialog for layout has no 'cancel' button, while the 'table' one does - no big deal, but an unnecessary inconsistency.
Another example of navigation doubt - the IDE opens in 'project selection' screen, but once I've opened a project, I can't find a way to get back to the project selection screen to work on a different one (of course, I can simply close the IDE, re-start it, type in my password - and then select a different project).

Along the top of the appli IDE there is a row of icons - each with a tooltip.
However, the rightmost three (option, sync, account) - arguably the most important - don't have tooltips.
Similarly, in the rightmost pane (once I've selected, say, a layout), each item has a tooltip - EXCEPT the no-code and low-code icons at the bottom.

So far I have noticed that when I create an Appli App, and when I run an app on an iPad versus Android Device, there are subtle differences between the two platforms. The positions and dimensions and layouts are enough so, I now design my apps on the Apple device to make sure they fit. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Appli is the software that helps you make your apps.
Appli Player is the software you, friends, or clients will use to use your Appli app.

My name is Mark Talluto. Welcome everyone to Appli. This incredible project has been under development for more than three years. We are happy to announce that we are in an open beta stage.
Please feel free to give Appli a try. You can use the following promo code: 45DAYAPPLI
No credit card is required when using this code.
Appli is a no-code and low-code environment for making data-driven apps. We designed the IDE to resemble tools commonly used by designers like Adobe XD, Figma, and Sketch. These incredible tools give designers the features they need to express their ideas visually. We want designers to feel at home when using Appli.
The best part is that most of the code your apps need is automatically written for you. There are times when you will want to add some logic and data to your app. You can do this very quickly with our low-code design.
Use your app on your mobile device or allow others access. Your unique app code is all you need. You may use the code in the Appli Player - available on both the iOS and Android app stores for free. The Appli Player may contain as many apps as you like.
Give Appli a try and see how quickly you can make apps today!
-Mark Talluto
If you have any questions, please post them in the Appli forums.

I was doing some testing today and I noticed, under the low code, the variables code.
That's Cool. I like it!
I guess, I missed it before.
