Enable editing for Custom Objects on mobile app

[katie_cort]

The problem right now is that on the mobile app, custom objects are read only, and cannot be edited. Additionally, contacts cannot be associated with custom objects from the mobile app. For a business where the custom object may be properties, or rental listings, it is helpful to be able to be on the go, showing the property, make notes on the contact and be able to associate it with the custom object as well. Or be able to edit the custom object directly on the go would be very useful!

I wanted to give everyone here an update that it is now also possible to associate Custom objects from Contacts, Companies, Deals and Tickets on iOS. 

To associate a custom object (screenshot below):

1. Navigate to a contact, company, deal or ticket record
2. Tap the "Associations" tab
3. Tap the custom object you want to associate
4. Select from the list of records or search for the record
5. Tap 'Done' to associate

You can also add an association label:

1. Tap the menu option next to the associated custom object record (three dots next to the record)
2. Tap "Add association label" and select the label you want to add

The label will appear underneath the record.

Hi there, I wanted to give an update here that it is now possible to edit custom object records on iOS. Adding new records is possible on web and Android. We don't yet have a concrete timeline to share on making this functionality possible on iOS, but it is on our radar.

You can edit Custom objects from the Contact, Company, Deal or Ticket record screen. To edit a Custom object:

1. Open a Contact, Company, Deal or Ticket record.
2. Navigate to the Associations tab, find the Custom object you want to edit. Tap to open the Custom object record.
3. From the About tab, tap “Edit”.
4. Make the required changes and save the record.

To delete a record, tap Delete.

+1 for the associations of activities to custom objects, on Android at least this isn't possible - the object just doesn't show in the tabs

This is ABSOLUTELY needed.  When can we expect this?

Hi there, just wanted to let you know that this is now possible. Check out more details on how Activity association works on iOS and Android. I believe you're also asking about associating records on iOS, that has also recently been made available (it was already available on Android).
