Where: Term column is the number of months to add, Date is the starting date. =DATE( YEAR([Date]@row) + INT((MONTH([Date]@row) + [Term]@row - 1) / 12),…

Desktop App to use system default browser for Authentication
The Smartsheet desktop app currently uses an embedded browser (WebView/WebView2) for authentication and does not support using the system browser for OIDC sign-in.

Smartsheet Desktop App
Hi, Trying to learn more about the desktop app versions for Windows and Mac OS. Can only seem to find old articles from a year ago and I'm not sure why its so difficult to find current versions and patching notes.

App Issue
Hello, I am using a Smartsheet App on Samsung Tablet. When the Contact List Column is Restrict to list values only is off, users cannot type in this column. I can also have the column be set to a drop down, but I would rather have it be the contact list where they can add manually their name. thanks

Hi, Is there any way to have the Smartsheet app automatically open on smartsheet. I want to get out of the habbit of using chrome, and using the app, so it would help if this opens each day automatically!

Desktop app tab order
I am using the desktop app which keeps all my tabs open whenever the app is closed then opened again which is good, but it never keeps the order of my tabs. They shuffle around and then I have to drag them back the way I need them. So if they could stay in the place I drag them to after re-opening the app that would be…

Phone Numbers and Street Addresses turn to Blue Font but only on Phone App
Hello, We have an interesting issue where all the phone numbers and street addresses we enter in a given row turn to blue font, but ONLY if viewing on the phone app. No matter what we do, we cannot figure out how to override this. It's an issue because a large majority of our conditional formatting relies on the use of…

Hi all - have been using the Desktop Application since just before public release (the first round of EAP comments) and have had ideas and opportunities slowly stack up while using it.

SSO login for Microsoft to work on web widgets.
This one I find Important. If you are using Brandfolder, Sharepoint, Miro etc on a dashboard and you are not currently logged in, you get an error since you can not use SSO URL to log in through the web Widget. The workaround is to log in on another tab in the browser and then it works fine on the dashboard. BUT, if you do…
Desktop app - open text file attachments
One thing I really miss from the browser experience is being able to view text files attached to a row. PDFs display very nicely in the app with one click, but viewing txt files (which my team uses MUCH more commonly) or Word docs involves an entire process: 1) Click file name in Attachments panel. 2) Go to browser and see…
