So I am running into an issue of photo orientation.  I am using Android an my photos upload just as shown in Survey123 App.  Another is using an IPhone and if he takes a landscape photo in Survey123 (we have tried flipping it in the app and also not flipping it but it did not matter) when I download the FGDB for use offline or look at them in AGO all of his pictures are rotated 90 degrees.  Its odd because if I use the Explorer App on my phone to view photos in the AGO layer they show correctly.  Any ideas?  My end results is for these photos being delivered as a product within the final FGDB and I would like them oriented correctly without manually doing hundreds ...

So I have 2 datasets with attachments.  I saw that 1.3 allows for merging and maintaining attachments.  I keep running into an error though and can never get it to complete.  Is there still an issue with this or something on my end?  They are 2 FGDB that I downloaded from AGO (from Survey123 data). ERROR 999999: Error executing function. Objects in this class cannot be updated outside an edit session [ALDOT_Guardrail_Inspection_P1] Failed to execute (Merge). ... View more

So I like the new updates in 2.0 but there was one change I am not sure if was intended and causes a longer time to enter a new survey.  Previously when you missed a required question it would tell you it was missed and scroll to that specific questions.  We have a long survey with many required items so it was easy to miss something.  Now it gives you the message but does not scroll to the question missed.  Instead you then ok the message then have to scroll yourself up or down to find that missed questions.  Might not seem like a big deal but doing 60 surveys a day this change can add up.  Any thoughts on updating this back to bringing you to the missed question? ...

So today we were out collecting data with the same form as used previously.  There were 2 of us collecting both with the current version of Survey123.  We were in some very poor service areas so attempted to switch to airplane mode to help with battery life.  I am using Android and no issues.  My partner is using the most recent IOS on his IPhone.  He was having constant crashes mid entry loosing data in airplane mode, about 50% of his attempts crashed.  Took it out of airplane mode and it improved a little but we determined it would still crash when he had no service.  It would always crash after attempted to take a photo.  A bit of a pain, he ended up saving as a draft before each picture attempt so if it crashed he did not loose all data.  Any ideas on this? ...

Ok so I have used Survey123 since its original Beta and there have been huge improvements.  This past week was the first time I have used it in production in a larger scale, collecting about 250 surveys.  I am doing some post processing of our data and I am noticing several duplicates. Some are complete duplicates of all data including the exact same times where the data is the same but some of the attachments are missing.  This is much better than loosing data (though I do have 1 survey that never seems to have shown up but could be user error).  These all have at least 5 attachements and limited to Large size in the survey.  The user who uploaded did say each day he would upload on wifi at home and of the 50 surveys each day a few would fail and he would resend them.  I am guessing these are those. ...
