Feature Recommendation: Add a Pop-Up Checklist to a Cell

combination of a Smartsheet and an iPad signature
Hi, I’m just quite new to Smartsheet and would like to know the possibility of using a combination of a Smartsheet and an iPad signature. We have a process that necessitates the signature of our clients. What is the most robust way to do this? Btw, currently we are not considering to use DocuSign.
Scrambles Subtasks
Is there a reason why my subtasks keep getting mixed up in different entries? For Example, Job "A" has 10 subtasks, Job "B" has 5 subtasks. Once saved, Job "A" showing all 15 subtasks???

The following was said at the office this week. I know what my response is. On the surface, I know Smartsheet offers sheet backups. Also looking at the Smartsheet Trust Center page and Microsoft Trust Center at the similarities...but wanted to open this up for objective discussion: “SmartSheet is not ours, that data does…

Why sheet viewed - No action taken - but in Activity Log list Formatting Applied, Why?
Hi this can be mis read as action taken. WHEN ONLY SHEET VIEWED. Unless embedded formatting is doing itself (wild guess). Need to understand where/why this line of log came from. Thanks, Jinwon
Non Licensed User - Editor Access - Update Columns
Hi - Has anyone experienced this? I have an unlicensed user shared to a sheet with a form with Editor access. I can see in Activity history she was able to change column properties for a column from Text to Date. Has anyone had this happen? I am wondering if she somehow edited the form?
