About this app

KoboCollect is the free Android data entry app for use with KoboToolbox. It is based on the open source ODK Collect app and is used for primary data collection in humanitarian emergencies and other challenging field environments. With this app you enter data from interviews or other primary data -- online or offline. There are no limits on the number of forms, questions, or submissions (including photos and other media) that can be saved on your device.

This app requires a free KoboToolbox account: Before you can collect data create a free account with your computer on www.kobotoolbox.org and create a blank form for data entry. Once your form is created and active, configure this app to point to your account, following the instructions in our tool.

To visualize, analyze, share, and download your collected data just go back to your KoboToolbox account online. Advanced users can also install their own KoboToolbox instance on a local computer or server.

KoboToolbox consists of several software tools to help you with your digital data collection. Together, these tools are used by thousands of humanitarians, development professionals, researchers, and private companies to design and implement primary data collection projects around the world. KoboCollect is based on ODK Collect, and is used by professionals wherever reliable and professional field data collection is needed.

The app is very useful in designing forms and gathering data. The offline kobocollect tool is very helpful to us working in unstable environment with sometimes no Internet access. I didn't give 5 star because there must always be room for further improvement.

After I spend hours collecting data and taking photos for a report, I hit the Submit button, it gives me an unhelpful error message about bad XML, doesn't submit the report but everything I've collected including the photos are gone. Totally gone.
