Re: Possible removal of mobile "light" and mobile "smartphone" in 2.25

 

Hello Morten,We are using mainly for data capture.
The smartphone module is a bit more flexible than the android app. We are using android phones and have the data entry app installed on the phones. We have had instances where the users entered data for several months at a stretch using the app and we could not find the data in the database (possibly a network issue). If the app can be upgraded to simulate the smartphone module, it would prove more useful. For example, you do not get a completed entry report using the app each time a user submits data, which you get using the module. Also, the messaging function is quite a useful tool.
Thanks 
Warm Regards, 

Ifeanyi

Hi Ifeanyi
What version of DHIS2 are you on? are you using it mainly for data collection, or also messaging?
What kind of phones are they using? have you also tried our Android clients?

Hi everyone
We are thinking of possibly removing these 2 projects from DHIS 2 Core in 2.25 release, but we wanted to know if anyone is still using them?
They haven't been updated in a very long time (4-5 releases at least) and is not updated to work with any of the latest model changes.
