FormBox - Data collection app

★★★★★ UPDATED REVIEW: at first I had an issue with the forms not syncing. The solution was to allow location permissions "All the time". I originally set it up for "Allow only when in use" and nothing was syncing. I went to permissions manager on my s10, edited it, and it works fine now! My suggestions: 1. Can give a name to forms on the app 2. Widget or a way to make a shortcut directly to a form from home screen for quick data entry 3. Add section for known issues and solutions.

★★★★★ Revising review to five stars. It is straightforward, and it works for my simple forms. Be sure to grant location permission, or it will not sync the forms you complete offline. Developer was responsive to the syncing problem I reported and tried to help. I was deleting app but checked permissions and location was not granted. After granting location (why?), forms sync. App works great, now, for my boat maintenance log! -old review: Good idea. But completed forms do not sync... so not much use.

★★☆☆☆ I like this app and have been using it for some time now. But recently (Sep 2020) I'm not able to sync form entries. I get a "Sync Error" with the following description: "Error 405; The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That's all we know.". I will 5-start when this is resolved. Several data which took time and energy to acquire are currently hanging in the app with no hope of how to retrieve or upload them. I had sent an email but no response from your team. I need your help with resolving this. Thanks

★★☆☆☆ Comments for the questions are not visible in downloaded form. This is important when you need to put the name of field to if statement - easier to put 'd1' than What is the date of birth of first animal?(question - in comment). There is no possibility to link form with collection of files(I need to collect pictures). The form will load under null() and will not work. If you have simple 'close sooner statement'(Is there other animal?) with logic behind (yes, next section, no go to submit) app will ignore this logic(no - go to the next section anyway). App will not let you go true - it's still requesting mandatory fields, so you have to create rubbish data. I have option to collect information for 10 animals per one form, but there is not always 10 animals.

★★☆☆☆ Google Form validations are not working during filling data through this app.
