There is a setting that influences how related features can be used. When viewing the list of maps, tap the Profile icon in the upper-left corner. There is a "Related types" setting. That can be enabled, which sets it to "all" (which means all types can be collected directly, thus not enforcing the appropriate parent/child relationships). If disabled, you'll see a setting value of "Filtered" (which means related feature classes are filtered out of the list of types that you can collect directly, and instead they have to be collected through the parent). So to force the relationships to be maintained by Collector (as it sounds like you want) you'd want to make sure that is set to "Filtered."

Gotcha. Yeah, the full workflow for having records related in the right way is through the Add experience from the relationship. If you have a map where they should only be editing related things, and they can't add features to another layer in the map, the blue add button won't be there. You can see this in the hydrant map in the "Try it" experience. (It's admittedly not easy to find, but in the section of the Quick reference talking about the panel and tools available in it, you will find the icon of the button, as well as finding it used in the doc about the Capture workflows it supports)

You are correct that it is the copy button (Quick reference—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation ). If you're using it with an editable feature, it copies the form to a new feature placed at your current location (or a location you specify with the map: Capture > At your location with a duplicated form—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation If you're using it with features that are read-only or only allow attribute updates, it copies the form and the geometry to the new feature: Capture > By copying an existing asset or observation—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation It sounds like you are using it with a layer that isn't editable, and then picking one of your related tables as the target of the copy? [Update so that this can be marked as the correct and and complete answer: That is what the button is. However, Doug's data was an editable feature class that was the child in a relationship. He was able to add features of that related type directly (and create orphans as a result) with that button because he had "Show related types" enabled in the Collector settings (see Configure Collector > Show related types—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation for details on the setting).]

What would you want shown? The different sublayers actually have different information. For example, if looking at the state level, you can see that CA has an MPI of 77. If looking at the county level, San Bernardino (in CA) has an MPI of 81. The 92374 zip code (in Redlands, which is in San Bernardino) has an MPI of 95. What I'm getting at is that it isn't just different symbols at the different scales, but also different information and different features (things you can interact with on the map). What do you want your map to look like, and what information should it contain?

Since this post is still getting some views, I wanted to mention here that the Android beta does support on-demand downloads. Also, the original post was about the released Android app, and as discussed in this thread, it doesn't support vector basemaps. The beta, however, does support them.

Hi Adam! I replied to your email as well, but to wrap up this thread... Thanks for your feedback on the beta! Since you are using the beta, please post in the forum of the Collector Early Adopter community. That way the right people from the team see it, as well as other bata participants who might be experiencing similar things. Thanks! (Also, for this particular question, yes, TPKs are supported. But the storage location for TPKs is different in the new app. There is a beta forum post about this.)

For Android, audio recordings are in the plans but aren't going to be included in the upcoming release (Q1 2020). They'll be part of a later release. If you'd like to share more about what you use audio recordings for, please email [email protected] with details (how many field workers, the type of information they collect in audio attachments, and other details of your workflow). Thanks!

Nope, I double-checked just to be sure, and you can make both TPK and TPKX files in 10.7.x

Hi Kevin - Could you clarify for me the issue you are facing? You can still author TPKs.

Hi Antonio - If you click on the layer name (for example, "2019 USA Republican Party Affiliation") you'll see that it is made up of a number of sublayers, and clicking on one of the sublayers will give you the ability to change the symbology. Is that what you're looking for?

Hi Bert! When you start editing an existing feature, Collector won't change its location as you might just be making attribute updates. In your case, you want your current location used as the point's new location. So you'll need to do the following: Start editing the existing point, as you've been doing. Tap the GPS button on the map to center the location target over your current location, coming from your GPS (assuming you've got it set up to be used -- see Prepare for high-accuracy data collection—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation) Tap Update Point (the big blue button) to move the point to your location. Tap Submit to save your changes. In your current steps, where you are moving the crosshair, you're manually providing a location for the point, which is why the GPS metadata fields aren't populated. In this workflow I've put above, using the GPS button means the point's location is going to come from the GPS, and those fields will be populated.

Hi Paul -- One thing I wanted to let you know. You mention The Add Offline Areas tool within the newer version of Collector combines the extent and level of detail. This makes the download much larger than it needs to be. Collector Classic allows separate control of extent and level of detail so I end up with a download that is reasonably sized. This isn't accurate. When adding an offline area in the newer version of Collector you are still able to specify a level of detail (if you are using a raster tile layer in your map -- it's not necessary for vector tile layers). It is just done differently. Instead of two separate screens (one for the extent and one for the level of detail), there is now one. At the bottom of that one, if your map has a raster tile layer in it, you'll be about to change the level of detail by clicking on the currently set level of detail (in the image below, you'd click on "Room"): You can read more about this in the Collector help: Define and download a map area in Collector, Step 4 [Prepare for offline data collection]—Collector for ArcGIS | Documentation
