Update to forms in Modern Lists, including custom forms with PowerApps - coming soon!
Hi,
I know this is an old post, but not having much luck finding additional info on this.
We've done some PowerApps forms for some of our lists, and are very happy with the results.
Everything works really well on desktop, which is still the majority of the users for the cases we picked so far.
We are however now working on a couple of forms, where the mobile view is just as important as the desktop, and are finding that the SharePoint mobile form reverts to the default form, and completely ignores any customization done with PowerApps!
Are we missing a setting somewhere, or is there any way to control a list's edit item forms on mobile?
Hi,
Unfortunately the PowerApps list form customization are not available on the Mobile App
This is a work in progress by the PowerApps team
Here is a https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/customize-list-form to more details on the list for customization
Check the Q&A section :-
Q: When should I customize a form to manage data in a SharePoint list, and when should I create a standalone app?
A: Customize a form if you want your users to manage data without leaving SharePoint (for example, in a desktop browser). Create an app if you want your users to manage data outside of SharePoint (for example, on a mobile device).

I tested myself and it works for me on my Android Huawei P9 Lite using Chrome web browser? When I'm in the list and select New/View/Edit I can see PowerApps form. I don't know where do you want to use from customization?
But I have noticed that hamburger navigation is not working correctly. When I navigate to one of my lists it works OK but then after when I press Hamburger navigation it shows the navigation for a glimps and hides immediately.
And if that is not all...Yesterday I noticed that if I have multiple lists with PowerApps Form enabled it shows only the first Form I opened. So if I navigate to "List1" and open one of the items it displayes OK. Then If i navigate to another list (let say "List2") and try to open PowerApp Form it displayes the previous Form (from List1).
I posted this yesterday on PowerApps forums https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussion/SharePoint-list-form-not-showing-correct-PowerApps-form/m-p/237997
