Thanks for joining us on this amazing journey. As our product evolves, Glide Pages surpass Glide Apps for building beautiful and powerful software. Glide Pages include everything Glide Apps can do and more. We're simply renaming them. As of today: Existing Apps are now Classic AppsPages are now Apps

Starting today, we strongly recommend building all future projects using Apps instead of Classic Apps. Apps are fully optimized for mobile and desktop devices, have all the same capabilities, and promise new features like Big Tables, Actions, Integrations, and Automations—coming soon, exclusively to Apps. (Classic Apps won't support these features)

You can learn more about the transition from Glide Pages to Glide Apps by reviewing the FAQ in our documentation. If you have more questions, visit our community.
