Turn off location capture in Survey123

[chambersj]

Is there a way to turn off or not have to use location capturing in Survey123?

Most of my surveys capture the location information from an existing point on a map.

Not having to use the location services on the mobile phone may extend the battery life.

If there is not a current way to turn off location capturing, can it be considered?

Thank You

I am not sure it will make a big difference in terms of battery life, but you can try disabling Survey123 access to location services in your device. I wonder if you can measure any difference.

Ismael,

I had thought of that and it can be used that way, but you get this annoying error that you have to cancel every time you start to fill out a survey form.

I'd also like to know if there is a way to stop the Survey123 app from attempting to get the location and not bring up that box.
