Chris, this is a great point, thanks for adding it in!

I think you have hit on a real beneficial use of Apps - a sort of “Space” or “Team” that can have certain Entities tied in for those on a team they are relevant to. Although Fibery - and I support this - is getting less and less “tied” in its structure to apps - just look at the latest release of ability to move Views across apps:

> [@CHANGELOG: December 9 / Automatically generate entity Name, Convert Numbers and Dates to Text, Braintree and Discourse integration](https://community.fibery.io/t/changelog-december-9-automatically-generate-entity-name-convert-numbers-and-dates-to-text-braintree-and-discourse-integration/1224/1):
>
> ## Move Documents and Views between Apps via drag and drop
> 
> Now you can move Views, Documents and Whiteboards between different Apps. It simplifies Apps reorganization and evolution. Less stupid restrictions.

…I still really like to be able to “group” or “Categorize” stuff at a meta level. I still would love to see Apps get full love in Fibery, such as:

- be able to be referenced like everything else - see in Search results, reference in “#” mentions, have their own descriptions useful for users, etc.

And I want to take another opportunity to mention that I think the term “App” is a misnomer, and it’s been confusing for my team, when you think about what an “App” really is. What do you think about what I was saying about this already:

> As a related point, I think the Fibery Extensions are a more appropriate “app” of a sort, as they provide extra functionality that I’d associate with an “app.” Jira, ClickUp, to name a few also handle these extra features with something call an “app.”

Perhaps over time, if there is support, the “App” moniker will evolve to something more appropriate? Unless I’m in the minority on this one…

Finally, re: permissions, and you hit on this too, I am hoping we get all levels of permissions - App, Type, and Entity - even certain Views as I’ve seen places that would be helpful. Permissions are becoming more relevant to me as my team grows, and to have world-class permissions you really need multiple levels for it.

Thanks again and cheers!

PS I owe you a few more responses and will get to them soon!
