[ODK Community] Editing Start and End times

Hi,

There is currently no easy way to get timestamps in the middle of the
form. I remember seeing some code in the repo where you can save
timestamps and user interaction data to a separate file on the SD
card, but that's not a great solution because it is totally separate
from the form data and doesn't get sent to Aggregate. Probably
wouldn't be too much work for a hired developer to make that process a
little less painful. See http://opendatakit.org/help/help-for-hire to
pursue that path.

Hi all,

I was curious to know if anyone has been successful in tinkering with the start and end times to 1) capture more than 1 start and end time and/or 2) modify the end time so that it captures an end point along a specific point of the interview rather than when finalizing and saving.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

The hosted SurveyCTO version of ODK includes "text audits" that save
timestamps for every question, capturing the user's pathway through the
survey. Output goes into .csv files that are saved and transported along
with filled-out forms (so they end up in the media directory when data is
output), and you can save these audit files for all or for a random subset
of filled-out forms. You can combine the text audits with random audio
audits, where portions of interviews are randomly recorded for
quality-control.

Best,

Chris

And for overall UI interactions studies:

(1) create a file called "enabled" (no file extension) under the "/odk/log"
directory,
(2) stop and restart ODK Collect (you likely need to stop it via Settings /
Applications / Manage Applications / ODK Collect / Force Stop)

ODK Collect will write interaction logging data to /odk/log/activityLog.db
(a SQLite database).
The data does not include any field values (i.e., non of the text the user
types is recorded in this activity log).
It does record when prompts are displayed, the user's interactions (focus
changes), and when swipes occur.

This logging file records actions across the UI and across multiple forms
and submissions. It is intended for whole-UI interaction studies.

As always, maintaining that across new additions is somewhat fragile. If
you use this and notice a user interaction not being recorded, let us know,
we'll add it.
