Power Apps: 3 Cardinal Errors Developers Must Dodge

Key insights

• Not Using Variables Correctly: Many developers forget to use variables for storing and reusing data, which can make apps slower and harder to manage.


• Inefficient Data Sources: Choosing the wrong data source, or not filtering data before loading it, often leads to slow performance in Power Apps.


• Poor User Experience Design: Ignoring simple user experience (UX) practices, like clear navigation and feedback, can confuse users and reduce app adoption.


• Lack of Testing: Skipping regular testing means bugs go unnoticed, causing problems during launch or updates.


• No Version Control: Not keeping track of changes makes it difficult to fix errors or roll back updates in Power Apps projects.


• How to Avoid These Mistakes: Use variables wisely, pick efficient data sources, focus on good UX design, test your app often, and maintain version control for better results.
