Draft observations on the Android app

[EmilyTapestrySupport]

If you try leaving an observation before adding a title and children or you press on the 'Cancel' button, you will be given the following options. These are:

1. Delete the observation
2. Keep the observation and save it as a draft
3. Keep editing the observation 

If you choose 2, to save the observation as a draft, it will be stored separately to your other observations. 
 

 

 

Once you save an observation as a draft, you will be able to find it from your main observations list by selecting '[number of drafts] observation/s on this device'. 

 

 

Here you will see all your drafts. To edit and/or upload a draft, just tap on it.

 

Here you will see the observation as normal. If you haven't added a title or selected children, you will need to do this before you can upload it as a full observation. Once you are ready, tap on 'Upload' in the top right-hand corner. 

 

 

To delete a draft, swipe to the left on the draft on the drafts page.

Please note drafts are automatically deleted 90 days after they are added if they are not saved as an observation.

 

If you are deleting a draft you will see it show up as red and a bin icon will appear as you slide across. Be careful when doing this deleted drafts cannot be restored. 

 

 

So that's how to save an observation as a draft and then upload it on the Android app.
