Force a save of the form

Hi,

Is there a way in ODKCollect to automatically save the form while the
user is filling it up (for example after he has filled up few questions)?
I could not find something on it but wanted to know if I have missed it.

Thanks

regards,

Hi,

As of Collect 1.2, the app writes savepoints after each swipe. As
noted at https://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/CollectReleaseNotes,
"Savepoints enable ODK Collect to recover all the answers for an
in-progress form after unexpected terminations or closures. When the
user chooses Edit Saved Form, the savepoint will be used if it is
newer than the last save of the form. If a form was never explicitly
saved, if the user chooses Fill Blank Form, ODK Collect will restore
to the savepoint of the last unsaved copy of that form. Savepoints
take less than 1 second to perform for eIMCI on Droid and Ideos
phones."

If you want something more than this, you can either file a request at
http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/issues/list or hire a developer
at http://opendatakit.org/help/help-for-hire.
