We primarily capture linear features (trails) and it would be very helpful if Field Maps would make a sound when it stops logging due to accuracy thresholds not being met. Often we hike many miles when collecting data, and it's challenging to also be watching the screen in Field Maps to ensure collection is ongoing while also watching your step on trails. We are using an Android device, and I've gotten it to vibrate when the logging stops, but in cold season months, the vibration isn't always felt through gloves. It seems like it wouldn't be much more to add a sound. After speaking with ESRI staff at a recent conference, it was suggested to add this as an Idea.
Previously we used TerraSync and the GPS unit would beep every time a vertex was collected. This enabled us to keep our eyes on the trail when logging the trail line. When the beeping stopped, you knew the accuracy dropped and collection ceased. A beep for every vertex collection isn't necessary, but a noise when data collection ceases due to decreased accuracy would be much appreciated!
