Fix Custom Power Apps Forms Not Showing in Microsoft Lists Mobile App
Question details
Users are unable to view custom Power Apps forms when accessing Microsoft Lists via the mobile app, seeing the default form instead.
- Product
- Microsoft Lists and Power Apps
- Device & OS
- Android and iOS
- Scenario
- Accessing customized SharePoint or Microsoft Lists forms on a mobile device through the official Microsoft Lists app.
- Observed behavior
- The mobile application bypasses the custom Power Apps form and continues to display the standard list form. This results in users seeing fields that were supposed to be hidden or removed in the customized layout.
Verify that your custom Power Apps form is properly published and works correctly when accessing Microsoft Lists from a desktop web browser before diagnosing mobile-specific limitations.
Consult the Power Platform Community for Mobile Compatibility
Because the integration of Power Apps forms within the Microsoft Lists mobile app involves complex version dependencies, consulting Microsoft specialists is necessary.
This behavior is typically caused by application version limitations or specific Power Apps configurations that fall outside standard Microsoft Answers troubleshooting. Guidance from dedicated Power Apps and SharePoint specialists is required to resolve or work around this limitation.
Open your web browser and navigate to the official Microsoft Power Platform Community forums (community.powerplatform.com).
Locate the specific discussion group for Power Apps integrations and SharePoint customized forms.
Create a new thread describing your issue. Be sure to include that the standard list form is appearing instead of the custom form, and specify whether you are using Android or iOS.
Ask the specialists whether mobile app access to the list can be temporarily restricted, or if there is an update that supports custom Power Apps forms in the current mobile app version.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Microsoft Lists mobile app show standard forms instead of custom ones?
The Microsoft Lists mobile app for iOS and Android may not fully support the rendering of certain customized Power Apps forms depending on the current app version. When it fails to load the custom form, it falls back to the default list view, which unfortunately exposes fields you may have intended to hide.
Can I restrict users from opening Lists in the mobile app if forms aren't supported?
Restricting mobile app access may require specific configurations via SharePoint or Microsoft Intune policies. It is highly recommended to consult Power Platform community specialists for the most current methods to enforce desktop-only access for customized lists.
Does this issue affect both Android and iOS devices?
Yes, the fallback to standard forms when customized Power Apps forms fail to load is a known behavior that has been observed on both the Android and iOS versions of the Microsoft Lists mobile application.
Where is the best place to get help for Power Apps and SharePoint integration?
The most effective resource is the official Microsoft Power Platform Community forums. Dedicated Power Apps and SharePoint specialists actively monitor these boards and can assist with complex form integration issues.
