Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is not visually clear when a form I've created is being actively shared. I'd love for this to be clear at a glance, and can imagine it being accomplished in multiple ways.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Replace Image with a Image when the item is being shared.

Each form currently looks like this in the webui: Image

So, instead it would look like Image New form when being shared.

  • Or, add a new section: Your Shared Forms, in addition to Your Forms, Shared with you This would also work, but the icon would be cleaner by otherwise keeping everything as-is.

Describe alternatives you've considered None I'm aware of.

Additional context Thanks either way for considering!

@sunjam I don't really get the use case behind your feature request. If you don't share a form with anyone, you will only be able to see it yourself. So in the end every form needs to be shared in one way or another which leads to all entries in the list to have the share icon instead of the form icon.

If a form expires/is closed you already have a visual feedback in the navigation that a special form will no longer take submissions.

I suppose I'm specifically thinking of forms being shared by url. It becomes difficult to remember what is being shared. Maybe it is just me. 😄

How would a user see an overview of all actively shared forms? We have a bunch of them, so I'm unsure of what is being shared or not.

In the Files app menu, I can filter on the left side menu, but it does not list forms.
