The issue @G_A_Venhorst mentioned was addressed for Android in late 2020 (details). @amurdoch24 I'd recommend verifying you're using the latest release of Collector on Android available via Google Play.

@JordanKing1 unfortunately we don't currently have a way for you to force centering on the GPS. For your workflows do you always use the GPS for collecting/updating locations?

@TravisSizemore @Ming if this is of interest I'd suggest upvoting this idea. Travis' suggestion is a good approach if you want to explicitly provide maps for offline and connected use.

@BradMead if you want to use the sideloaded basemap as the default basemap for the map when taking it offline, you'll need to reference it in the web map as described here for ArcGIS Online. ArcGIS Enterprise has an identical flow.

@BrendonJoyce1 there are a couple of things in play here. First, iOS is detecting this as an address automatically. Would you prefer these not be hyperlinked at all? Second, the color inversion of custom HTML in Field Maps on iOS is not behaving correctly in dark mode; this has been addressed in our development builds and will be available in our upcoming release late this month.

This is correct, supporting direct download of basemaps to the SD card was available in Collector Classic, but recent changes with Android have made this more challenging. As @MervynLotter mentions, you can still sideload TPKs, VTPKs, etc. onto the SD card to minimize the impact on the internal device storage as outlined in this doc topic. You will also need to define this as part of the map's offline properties if this is the default basemap that should be used when downloading the map. One benefit of ArcGIS Field Maps is that you won't have to have separate TPKs in each app directory as you did for Collector, Explorer, etc.

@Linde_Carmack the default visibility for layers is defined in the web map and is the location where any changes should be made. Within the on-demand offline workflow, they layers tool can be used to temporality turn on reference layers that can help find the right area/extent to download. It also displays any layer loading errors or layers that need credentials entered.

@TravisSizemore A few questions that might help me better understand the behavior you're seeing: Do all layers support editing (at both the service and web map level)? If editing allowed, what editing permissions are defined at the feature layer? What types of geometries are the two layers you mention?

@MattI to answer your specific question, snapping is supported on iOS within Collector. It is now available in Android as well in ArcGIS Field Maps.

We are planning to incorporate the ability to define some capabilities and default settings in Field Maps web to simplify deployment this year. Collection capabilities are among the first items planned, including the ability to disable/hide the Edit Multiple tool on a per map basis. Please add a comment if there are specific capabilities that are of interest to you.

@Ewout_de_Graaff have you tried this in the latest version of Field Maps? In the latest release we added support for accessing the number of points to average from within the collect panel. Tap on the menu in the panel while averaging is enabled to change the number of points to average.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts here. Currently we are considering adding support for this on a per map basis to allow for control based on project requirements.
