I was wondering if it was still the case that the lookup runtime function doesn’t work when using the nintex mobile app? 

There is this post from a number of years ago stating that is the expected behaviour, but it would be really useful to be able to use it. 

List lookup() runtime function does not return any results on Nintex Mobile form. | Community

Hi @SamFromUGL,

Yes, the lookup runtime function still does not work on Nintex Mobile.
The lookup control works on Nintex Mobile.

The reason is that Nintex mobile will download the lookup list data for a lookup control so the control will still work in offline mode. Nintex mobile cannot see the lookup runtime function so it does not know to download the lookup list data and link to it.
