Noob quest for documentation

Hi folks:

Absolute newbie here. The possibilities of ODK look awesome to me, but I
can't seem to find the documentation that's simple enough for me to
understand how to get a form that I have designed and saved to show up in
the collect app on Android.

Ideally, I'd like the storage for the data that is collected to be on an
(institutional) Google drive or filespace otherwise protected by Google
account settings. Data entry should, preferably, also be protected by
Google account.

Any help would be greatly appreciated - a couple of pointers to documents
will do fine!

Thanks in advance,

Hi Marco,

Check here: http://opendatakit.org/use/collect/
Forms you design do not have to be uploaded to Aggregate for them to be
used. They can be manually added to the device. Simply place them in the
/odk/forms folder on your Android device's SD card.
