Most pages only display the page source; however, additional settings are available for sheet pages. For sheet pages, you can control:

• Default page view: Specify which view appears when opening the WorkApp page. When viewing on desktop, you can select Grid View, Card View, or Gantt View for project plans. In the mobile Android and iOS apps, you can choose Mobile View or Grid View.
• Filter settings: Apply a saved default filter to help collaborators see key information first. You can also change your Card View settings, such as Level and View By.
