I thought this post from Marcel Broschk on LinkedIn was worth sharing…
π Power Apps Limitations β The Things You Always Forget
Building in Power Apps can feel like magic πͺ β until you hit the wall of limitations π§±.
Thatβs why I created this 1-panel comic π¨ to show the common pitfalls every maker stumbles into.
π‘ Best Practices to Stay Ahead:
β
Understand delegation early β Design with data sources that support it.
β
Watch control limits β Too many controls = slower apps π’.
β
Plan for offline β Not all features work without connectivity.
β
Mind your licensing β Premium connectors & API call limits may surprise you.
β
Optimize performance β Fewer screens, cleaner formulas, reusable components.
β
Keep an eye on storage β File size & media limits creep up faster than you think.
π Tip: Know your limits, design smarter, and save yourself headaches later.
π Whatβs the limitation that caught you off guard the most in your projects?
