Hi,
My users have reported that the Survey123 app keep showing the following error message when they try to complete a survey with no GPS signal on their Android devices:
Basicly, what it says in english is : "No position received"
The actual position of the user is not important for our Survey (The user select a location ID). So is there anyway to prevent Survey123 from trying to find the device position?
Will autopopulating the geometry field keep the app from searching for a location?
Thank you for your help.
EDIT: I can confirm the same behavior appear on Survey123 version 3.1.113 on Windows 7. The message appear everywhere in the app. I now see that I can disable it in the App parameters.
Still, is there anyway to disable it completly? I would prefer not to collect personal information about the location of my users when they send me data.
Hi Nicolas
The Survey123 field app will always include a location in a submitted survey, even if the form does not contain a geopoint question. This is because the data is stored in a feature service, and each collected feature must have a geometry. If the user does not want to share their location then they just need to disable the device location sensor - this will result in a null geometry being collected.
Cheers
John
