Hi @lillian1n2 . Unfortunately at the moment the App lacks a self update/upgrade method and it relies in other services to updated. In this case it is the Google Management System which does it via the Play Store. Otherwise the users will have to download the new version each time a new is published.
Hello everyone. We are rolling out a new project that will make use of the android capture app for aggregate data reporting. We have installed the app (version 2.6.2) on Samsung A13 phones.
On a number of the phones, we are experiencing hanging of the app when trying to use the datasets with the notification to either wait or close the app. The android system is also flagging the app as using too much battery power and recommending to put the app into deep sleep mode.
Is anybody else experiencing this and is there anything we need to do to optimize the app or the process?
In this devices where it is happening. Did you update/upgrade the up or you installed fresh? If the former could you please try fully resetting the App and trying again? Also, is there a chance you could share credentials to the server (via PM or email) so we can have a look? Is the DataSet very big? Can you describe it more or less?
