Delete forms and data from mobile

Development

  • How can I delete data and forms from collector;s mobile. either remotely
    or giving them button on screen.*

Do not want to tell them in folders and delete from there.

Thanks

One solution you could use would be to synchronize your folders using
DropSync/DropBox. Maintain your forms on your desktop, when you delete them
from the desktop folder, they will be deleted from the phones when they
perform a sync.

Neil,

Have you had good luck using Dropbox? I heard bad things could happen:

Well, that does give me some worry, but I haven't had that problem. We did
some dropbox testing in Congo, and I have been using it for a while to sync
all of my forms and data, I never cable in anymore. I've been doing this to
test for deployment, but we haven't yet used in if a full scale project.
Would you recomend avoiding dropbox?

Neil,

I don't know if I'd avoid it, but I'd be cautious about auto-syncing
or using both apps at precisely the same time.
