The UX > Options section of the editor provides access to additional options to tailor the app's user experience. The options set apply across the entire app.
General options
Starting view
Identifies which view the user sees when the app is launched the first time after installation. See Choose the launch page for an app.
Start with About
If enabled, the app's About page will be displayed the first time the app is started after installation, before any configured view is shown. The user will need to click OK to access app functionality.
The app's About page may be accessed within the app from the app main menu.
Show name and email in the side menu
If enabled, the name and email address of the app user will be displayed in the app's main menu. This information is only known and displayed if the app requires user sign-in.
Preview new features
Enable the Preview new features option to gain access to app features that are in the Preview Program.
Fonts
Sets the font style and size within the app itself.
The font style applies throughout the app and may not be overridden elsewhere. The font size also applies throughout the app, but format rules may be used to adjust font size in some places.
Custom fonts are not supported.
Forms
Form style
Sets the default form style, either Default or Side-by-side.
The default form style may be overridden for each form view in the form view's configuration.
Apply show-if constraints universally
If enabled, the Show_If column constraint is applied everywhere within the app; if disabled, Show_If applies only within form views. Most app creators will prefer this option to be enabled.
This setting applies throughout the app and may not be overridden elsewhere.
Inputs

This setting applies throughout the app and may not be overridden elsewhere.
Allow scan input override
If enabled, the app user will have the opportunity to edit the value scanned from a barcode or with NFC; if disabled, the scanned value may not be edited by the app user.

Table view
These settings apply throughout the app and may not be overridden elsewhere.
