In the Survey123 app for Android, all text fields default to the Android "password" style keyboard entry meaning you have to type each letter one at a time into the field. For those users who use Android's built in "swipe" keyboard entry for fast text entry on a mobile device, this really slows down data collection. Please consider adding the ability to use the swipe keyboard for text field entry in the Survey123 app. Thanks!
Yes, it would be very useful to have this possibility of writing in the Survey!
very surprising this is still a problem but I second this. would help with efficiency for sure
We have field workers entering a lot of text into assessment surveys. This is a very frustrating detail that we would like to se fixed !
I would be keen that swipe texting was included. When rolling out Survey123 to users who swipe text, they give feedback the app has "broken their keyboard setup" and it's very jarring to go back to 'password' style for the one app.
Fully agree with this being a huge oversight when it comes to in-field productivity and efficiency. Swipe text is so much quicker!!
I'd be satisfied if the predictive text and autocorrect worked on the keyboard, let alone the swipe function!
