Lock point location
Hi @FrankHerbert ,
If I'm understanding correctly - you don't want the user to be able to drop a pin and then choose "collect here", is that correct? You only want them to be able to collect a point at their current device location?
There is a setting in Field Maps Designer for that. Under the App Settings -> Collection, if you choose "Block Manual Location" they will not be able to set the location manually, they will only be able to collect at their current location.
Test that setting out and see if it creates the behavior your looking for.

Hi @FrankHerbert ,
Apologies, I missed a detail here. The setting I pointed you do should make it so a user cannot move a point after initial creation. I think you'll want to keep the manual location disabled - basically after a user drops a point they can pan the map and hit "update point", but with manual location they won't be able to do that.
For your initial ask though, under App Settings in Field Maps Designer, there's also the "Feature actions" section. That's where you can disable "Collect Here" so that they can't drop a pin and collect a feature at that location.
If you disable Collect Here and manual locations, they will only be able to submit points at their current GPS location.
I hope that helps!
