Allowing users to use my app

I created an app using Appsheet, and deployed it successfully to Google Play. I installed it successfully on my Android mobile and it worked properly.

I asked some friends to install it and use it. All of them could install the app, but no one could use it because they received a message stating they donโ€™t have permission to the data table.

What did I miss? Should their emails have permission to the same Google Sheet Iโ€™m using with the app?

It sounds like the tables the app uses are configured to access the spreadsheet data source as the app user rather than the app owner. If so, the spreadsheet must be configured to allow access to the email addresses of all desired users. This configuration is unusual, however. Typically, the app is configured to access the spreadsheet data source as the app owner.
