Experiencing a sluggish app can be incredibly frustrating, especially when it once ran smoothly. If you’re finding that your app is now so slow it’s almost unusable, it’s likely due to the use of Query Columns.

Apps often perform poorly because of their reliance on Query Columns. These columns are inherently slower because they need extra time to process data, particularly when pulling from a large table. The inefficiency arises because Query Columns continually check and recheck data sets, which can be resource-intensive and time-consuming.

To enhance the performance and efficiency of your app, we recommend using Conditional Relations instead of Query Columns. Conditional Relations streamline the data-fetching process, making it quicker and more efficient. By eliminating the continuous checks required by Query Columns, Conditional Relations can handle data operations much more effectively. Read more about Conditional Relations here.
