Ratings and reviews

After the most recent update I'm revising my review. The UI has been vastly improved. I can now tab through fields and enter in data much faster. Also before this last update, I would say my app crashed any where from 10-20 times a day. It will still crash on occassion, but it is far less frequently than before. So a big thanks to the engineer team who fixed these issues.

Overall ok but buggy. I use the app on my android phone and have run into a few bugs. 1. Using the camera on my phone to attach a photo to an element, frequently the app will crash. 2. Loading the app, the default basemap will not display, I have to switch maps, then switch back for the default map to display (I acknowledge this could be my organization's issue). 3. Using the markup map is useful however when I log into our organization site website, same map, I don't see those markup elements.

App crashes frequently causing data loss when collecting features. No autobackup as you go. Can ONLY sync via wifi or cell data, there really should be an option to sync via USB port on PC connected to hardwire ethernet. The user interface and the way the app interfaces with ArcGIS online is also clunky and not intuitive. It's a very fussy and frustrating workflow. Finally, the ESRI support is nonexistent even with corporate account. We have to train our own people in house to provide support.
