Hi Jason,

Currently I'm dev of android app - Data capture for DHIS2. (Maybe there is
another project?)
Regarding suggestions you've posted:


1) PIN-based authentication for smartphone client

Something like on mobile java app? Where you have to set pin after first
auth?

2) Persistent sessions on smartphone client

It is implemented feature and we have already discussed that earlier. I
don't understand why current implemetation doesn't fit your needs.

3) Linkage between visualizer and data capture clients on smartphone, so no

Looking forward to implement this feature)

4) Android widget for visualizer - or make the current Android visualizer
> persist to make access to data simple for people like Chief Macha.

As data visualization will be implemented generally, it won't be a problem
to implement.

 5) Access to URL on Java client.

6) Some way to access multiple instances from one Java client.  Use case:
> we are trying ..

As I understood this is related to server side implemenation?
