    Dynamic form rules to show or hide fields is working in web view but in mobile view are not working. 

    Debugger console shows an error when updating the field that triggers the show other fields.
    "<div data-id="_fid_178">     <select  onChange=' OnCHF(this);'  name='_fid_178' id='_fid_178' size=1>"

    Please advise. 
    Thank you

    I'm not certain, but I thought dynamic form rules don't apply to mobile?  There are certain features throughout that aren't present in the mobile landscape.

    Is there any plan to allow form rules to work for Mobile?

    Form rules work fine on mobile. There is however a catch with your app that if you're using the new forms - mobile devices will revert to the legacy form so lets say you have your form working on desktop in the new forms, but you're not seeing it work in mobile, it's because the mobile form is using the legacy format and you need to configure both.

    I am using the legacy form for both desktop and mobile in this particular situation. Same form but a user field fills depending on the category selected and information on the order.

    Ie) If Sales Rep Communication is the category selected it will populate the user field with the rep assigned to that particular order.

    Works fine on desktop but the field is not filing in mobile

    Tell us if all the fields involved in the Form Rule, are on the form (even if hidden by a form rule)?

    I thought I sent screenshots earlier but doesn't look like they came through.

    It appears that the rules that specify the exact user(s) that needs to go into the field work but If I have it reference another field (ie) the sales rep for that particular order it doesn't fill the field with anything.

    Yes. I believe they are. I screenshot the form rules and the form in the comment before but may be too small to read.

    Sorry, I'm not sure what to suggest here.  You may need some one on one assistance from someone in Quickbase support or elsewhere.

    It's probably a bug. Ironically, I was just coming to make a post about the ever growing list of very major bugs on mobile. Sadly, Quickbase is quite vocal and almost excited to tell you that they will NOT under any circumstances fix any single bug on mobile. They are too focused on their new mobile form, which they have promised me for the last 4 years and not delivered. 

    I can't remember all the bugs I found, but I know there are multiple regarding different dynamic form rules not working. Ill make a new post to list the 3 or 4 biggest bugs that exist, so you know what you are in for.
