Collect device location while offline and without a map?

Question

We're hoping to use the Quick Report template to build a simple app, but we do not want to show a map and, instead, need to collect the device location at the time the observation is saved. Many app users will be outside of a cellular network when collecting data. The app will use a feature service on our enterprise server to store data . Can the Quick Report template be configured to store the device's location without using a map? If so, how?

I followed your instructions Nakul and, indeed, the map does not load. Where may I change the code so that the Add Location page is skipped, since we do not want the user to use the map at all, and only want to collect and store the device location?

Thank you again Nakul. I will start building the application and consider all of the information you have provided.

I almost forgot to mention this is only possible with point feature layers.
