S123 - Reverse Geocoding, text outputs overwritten

[BJones1]

Hi All, 

Was wondering if you could help, i have a reverse geocoder that writes the address to several text fields. However, if the user decides to alter the output in the text field (say the house number is wrong) the field is automatically overwritten. 

The survey was created in Connect and have attached the segment used for geopoint calculations. 

I am encountering this issue on both Apple (IOS 15.4.1) and Android Version 11 both running S123 Version 3.14.255. 

Has anyone encountered this problem?

Many thanks, 

Ben

The problem is caused by the value set in the body::accuracyThreshold column. Since the threshold is not met, the app is constantly trying to get new locations from the GPS. This triggers calculations when a new location is provided. If you remove the threshold value, the behavior you saw will stop. This blog describes a few alternative approaches to help you control horizontal accuracy: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-blog/survey123-tricks-of-the-trade-xlsforms-and/ba-p/...
