ability to display repeating sections in a table-like format on mobile apps
Currently only on Windows tablet we render the repeating sections inline.

I'm for this too, especially with the new responsive forms layout. Being able to have a repeating table control similar to that in Infopath would be good.
I imagine there's a number of design issues doing this in the responsive form designer though.

Hi John, happy to jump on a call and discuss further for this specific enhancement and the mobile app in general. My email: jan.at.habaneroconsulting.com

I'd like to know a little more about this request. Is anyone able to share an example form or even a mock up of what you're trying to achieve?

Would be great to be able to select which input fields from the repeater get displayed in the rolled-up "title" line when the repeater is collapsed.

We please, I would love to see this functionality, it would take the mobile app to the next level. It would be awesome to support attachments per entry as well. Currently mobile only supports simple use cases, would like to see this evolve to more sophisticated scenarios.

This is extremely important if Nintex Mobile is to be used as a serious data capture software. Currently the repeater control is not user friendly and has poor visibility. A table-like layout is essential when entering rows of data. I would +100 votes if I could.

I'm working on a project right now that would really benefit from this approach. This particular project consists of multiple inspection forms that contain 2+ sections of tabular data input.
I would love to see this added to the roadmap.

I should add...
This is mostly only useful when you have a multiple items with 1 or 2 fields that need to be collected for each of them. With any more than that you're likely going to need a "full screen layout" like it currently has.

It would be good to be able to create a repeating table layout instead of the repeater items acting more like a separate "sub form".
This would mean we'd be able to replicate common paper based layouts that users are used to with textboxes setup in a dynamic grid scenario.
Alternatively, at least if we could select on the repeater control the field to use as the "title" for the row instead of using the first textbox found on the sub-form.
