How to copy end edit forms inside "Edit saved form" - ODK Collect?

Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if there is a way to copy saved forms which I can find under "Edit Saved Form" inside ODK Collect app on my phone?

Why would I want to do that? Sometimes you need to fill in a couple of very similar forms.

It would be great if instead of running through the similar process, again and again, I could fill in one form, save it, copy it, then edit necessary fields and sent as a new submission. I think adding simple copy form functionality inside "Edit Saved Form" tab would dramatically improve an already great ODK.

Hi there,

There is currently no functionality to duplicate forms Collect. I
think it's a cool idea and I think we should build it, but the first
step is for you to file an issue at
https://github.com/opendatakit/collect/issues/new.

No issue, no feature, so if please file it!

Thanks,

Yaw
