Hi Brooks, You are correct that there will be no new future development within Collector. That goes for map viewer capabilities and any other enhancements. Our focus is on advancing data collection enhancements within ArcGIS Field Maps. We are working closely with the team building the Map Viewer beta and you've probably noticed already that the new smart forms you create within the Field Maps web app are supported in both the mobile app but also in the map viewer beta as well. We are also supporting group layers in Field Maps as well. Perhaps the biggest feature that is not yet supported in Field Maps yet are pop-up elements. This functionality is not yet available in the underlying ArcGIS Runtime SDKs that are used by Field Maps but once they are addressed then we will add support. We have not documented capabilities within Map Viewer beta that are not supported in Field Maps yet. This is a great idea and would be quite useful. I'll share this with our doc team.

It will be supported with ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 in December. We'll provide more information on when/where to get the Enterprise patch when we release with ArcGIS Online. Look for the week of December 7th. Thanks!

It's coming in Field Maps. You'll see it on iOS in December and then Android in 2021. Here is a preview of Dark Mode with data collection. It really does make the form pop.

Thank you for the additional detail Ryan and I'm sorry that this has not been resolved. From the other GeoNet post I was able to trace your bug number in the system and view its details. I see that it was escalated as well. You do not need to submit another bug report, I will make sure this issue is re-opened as it has definitely not been addressed. BTW - ArcGIS Field Maps is built using the latest, released version of the ArcGIS Runtime SDK and Explorer/Collector are using older builds - this could account for the change in behavior. We will need to debug and see if the issue is in the underlying Runtime SDK or if we can resolve it at the app-level. We may be reaching out to you for access and map. Thank you for your patience.

Our cross-platform apps Survey123 and QuickCapture are available for Windows and new functionality is being added to them with each release. Collector Classic and ArcGIS Explorer are still supported. Also please look for new GPS capabilities coming in ArcGIS Pro 2.7 at the end of this year. With that said, we are not actively developing new, native mobile applications on the Windows 10 platform at this time. There is no development planned for ArcGIS Field Maps on the Windows 10 platform. If you are in need of Field Maps on Windows 10, please contact your account manager so that we can gather this information. Thanks!

Keith - if your Enterprise portal is pre-10.8.1, you will need to register the ArcGIS Field Maps app id as mentioned above. Here are the documented steps: Requirements—ArcGIS Field Maps | Documentation

Hi Will, Thank you for your post and recommendations. We greatly appreciate your feedback and want to make sure we support you and your use of ArcGIS Field Apps moving forward. We have not set any official dates for the retirement of Explorer, Collector and Tracker at this time and retirement does not mean that we will remove apps from their respective stores either. We will leave the apps in the store with their current listings beyond retirement. We left the ArcGIS app (Esri's first iOS and Android app in the stores for 3 years after it was retired and only pulled the listings when it could no longer be installed on devices and was to be removed by Apple themselves). We are seeking customer feedback and considering retirement time frames at this time. Please note the FAQ section of the Introducing ArcGIS Field Maps for the latest comments on this. We have recently updated both Collector and Explorer with critical bug fixes and will continue to do so throughout the time span that they are supported. All new development is focused on ArcGIS Field Maps and our consolidation efforts. With required OS version support, there are a number of key considerations that we considered when making the decisions for ArcGIS Field Maps: Adoption number for existing apps - over 83% of devices are using iOS 13 or higher with Collector, Explorer and Tracker and 81% are Android 8 or higher. With iOS 14 we are already seeing rapid adoption in store analytics. Devices supported with a specific version requirement - iOS 13 supports devices back to iPhone 6s (released in September 2015). Technology advancements with OS versions - there were significant security improvements with iOS 13 that were a contributing factor. We have a number of customers that VPN devices inside of their network and IT departments are requesting our app source code be scanned. Dated components can be flagged as high or critical vulnerabilities. This is an important factor for all of us. We will require iOS 13 and Android 8 (API 26) when we release our first version of ArcGIS Field Maps at the end of October. We are considering dates for retirement of the apps at this time (no decisions have been made yet) and retirement does not mean removal from the Apple App Store or Google Play - we will extend the time these apps are available in the stores beyond their retirement. I do encourage others to provide their feedback on timelines and needs like you have Will. We do not want to disrupt field seasons, planned project deployments, and device procurement cycles as best we can and we want to give you plenty of time to migrate to new systems (both hardware and software) and we can't do that without your feedback. Thank you!

Hi Paul, The app integrations are quite resilient. I would recommend testing the scheme for launching Survey123 using Collector or Explorer first. Just add the assignments layer into a web map and configure the popup to launch Survey as you like. When working as you expect, then use the Python API to add the integration. If you do encounter problems, you can alway use the ArcGIS Online assistant and remove the integration from the project item. Jeff

Hi, Can you please file a support request for this? Looking through our changes here: What's new—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation we had some fixes to the way related tables work that may have inadvertently caused your workflow to fail - we may be checking for a valid geometry now where we were not checking for one in the past. Is there a reason why you are using a feature layer here if the geometry is not used? Would like to understand the need to do this so we can make sure its represented in our test cases. Thanks Jeff
