Hi, why my survey takes too long to load on my device? Any recommendations, please
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi. I had a quick look at the survey. Thanks for sharing. I was able to make it load in my iPhone6 in 4 seconds. Here are the changes I made:
I noticed you are using the field-list appearance. Unfortunately we are not supporting this XLSForm feature just yet. I left them there although they will be ignored in the app.
I imagine we could look at optimizing a bit more, but that is how far I was able to get it for now. For a survey of this type, which typically would take several minutes to complete, it seems like 4 seconds to open should be bearable. I did not test on other devices, the time to load will change depending on the compute time in the phone or tablet.
Attaching survey with my changes.
Hi Osman. To provide any advice to you you will need to include your XLSFile in this thread.
Thank you for your replay Ismael, I just attach the xml file to my original comment, if you can see if there's anything this bad ...

Thank you, you're great ... I'm new using this app, so I will make all the suggested changes and incorporate into my version and again thank you so much for your support
Hi, Ismael sorry for asking again, but I modified a little the xlsfile that you suggested me the last time in a new form using the external choice, but now it doesn't work, I checked everything several times but I can not find my mistake. Could you help me please or suggest any changes.
Attach the xlsfile
Hi.
I made some tweaks to your XLSForm and got the cascading select to work. All changes were made on the external_select worksheet. You will note I did:
Your syntax was correct, but cascading selects do not like numbers. That is why I added the two columns and transformed your numbers into text.
Hope this helps!
Thanks man, you are awesome ... I had the idea that the problem was in the numerical format, but your suggestion will serve me a lot. Thanks again
