Ratings and reviews

Great application provided you have a halfway decent developer. Has tons of "out of the box" solutions that are a tad clunky. Knowing some one that can discuss a data management strategy and configure it accordingly can turn this into an extremely efficient app for field data collection at a variety of levels of precision (all depends on what inputs/sensors its reading from). only 4 because there is always room for improvement.

I used this app for the recent nationwide Riverwatch Survey. It works, doesn't require you to create an account. But it randomly freezes and crashes. It's not very user friendly, you need to go into various submenus to "update" the survey. When adding my location to the survey I had to patiently wait whilst the entire app froze, if I pressed anything I'd risk losing progress. I am using a Pixel 9 Pro XL (pretty much the most vanilla Android phone you can buy).

Here is a clear, practical recommendation for “best data collection and easy interaction with a dashboard”, modified to include the most essential requirement for Ethiopia: OFFLINE GPS tracking. To work reliably in remote areas with no internet, your system must support offline location capture, GPS tracking, and later syncing.
