Business value

You’ll reduce clicks and speed up decision‑making by making list data easier to scan. With labels shown before values, your frontline workers can differentiate records at a glance, cutting time spent opening items and improving task throughput.

Feature details

The Power Apps Grid control on mobile can now show column labels before their values. It also supports more columns while removing avatar icons for tighter, more scannable lists. This makes each row more self‑explanatory without needing to open the record.

How to use

  1. In Power Apps, open the table view used by your mobile list.
  2. Edit the grid control properties for that view.
  3. Set the Show Column Names for List View property to Yes.
  4. Select Save and publish the view. The mobile app reflects the change on the next sync.

Enablement and scope

  • This is a UI‑level setting on the grid control and doesn't require a platform feature flag. It can be applied per view.
  • The change is compatible with mobile list views and optimized for devices with limited screen width by reducing reliance on avatars and increasing the number of visible columns.
