Ratings and reviews

"For a better experience, turn on device location, which uses Google's location service." This is an unnecessary step being forced on the users. You can hit yes, and it will finally let you use the app your company pays for. It will change this setting across all apps on your device. Then you can change your settings back to private with less data theft and this app keeps working. A huge pain to do Every. Single. Day. Oh, and bugs and crashes. Update 20230306: App even more frustrating.

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.

I like this much better than collector. 99% of the time any issues with offline downloads are in the design of the data. There is a learning curve and sometimes it seems it should work when it doesn't. Going through basic troubleshooting solves my issues most times, and if not I republish and that tends to fix it. I understand people get frustrated but proper planning and testing is always required to ensure deployment is successful
