When using a basic inspection workflow with related tables based on the collection of new features it is paramount that adding related items is done via popups that are enforced by the relationship classes in the data model. 

The blue + button seen below that is permanently visible when needing the add features in iOS/Android apps creates a HUGE headache for admins like me as it shouts "USE ME" to add data to my users out in the field rather than using the ADD items from within popups. I have had so much data added to my hosted feature layer that is just "floating" not linked to any parent dataset.

I would like to request that this blue + button be configurable to allow it to be switched off/removed from the apps.

Hello,

There is a map setting you can apply that should prevent users from being able to create orphaned records called "Show Related Types".  It should be "off" by default, which would prevent users from adding these records.

Hello @JustinReynolds,

thanks a lot for posting this. Brilliant. Can't believe I missed this in the documentation.

Implemented now.
