Model Driven App Mobile - Form Not Working

I have a very simple model driven app.

It loads without problem on mobile (iPhone) however when I try to add a record it doesn't offer me my main form?  I have no way of entering data.

Is there a trick I'm missing?

    Hi @rorybi ,

    Actually, it is an known limit in Dynamics 365 mobile app -- When you run a Model-Driven app using Dynamics 365 mobile app, it use quick create forms for creating new records rather than Main Form. If an entity already has a quick create form configured for it, the mobile apps use that form. If an entity doesn't have a configured quick create form, Power Apps generates a quick create form for creating records in the mobile apps based on the main form definition.

    Please check the following article for more details:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/model-driven-apps/create-edit-quick-create-forms

     

    On your side, please consider configure a Quick Create Form for your CDS Entity, then run your Model-Driven app using Dynamics 365 mobile app, use the Quick Create Form to create new record.

     

    Best regards,

    Send a screenshot of what you are seeing. If you don’t see your main form when creating a record, chances are the entity is enabled for quick create

     

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/model-driven-apps/create-edit-quick-create-forms

    consider how you can use this to your advantage—many main forms have a lot of fields that are not needed when creating records, so quick create gives you a way to more quickly create a record with only the fields you are likely to need.

     

    but by default the quick create form just has the required fields on it so you need to add fields to it.or  if you just want the main form, you can turn quick create off at the entity level.
