After a busy summer in our product development department, we are releasing several enhancements and new features that have been added to our forms and directories.
Please read through the following information for how and when these updates will affect your current apps and administrator tools.
Summary of Updates
Forms | Design Update
Availability
This feature will be applied to your live app on Monday, Aug 27, 2018. The update will be implemented at the platform level and no actions are required by app administrators.

Directories | Map View New
Availability
This feature is available now.
Description
You can display the geographically based contents of a directory listing on a map with pins, which can be tapped to reveal details of a location.
For this to work, your data collection items must include an address, city, and state. Then take note of the following two screens located in your administrator tools:
Option 1 (Recommended)
Option 2
Choose “Map” from the layout type dropdown menu. Leave the checkbox with the “Use system generated geolocation” label unchecked (empty). Then select the location field that stores a complete location (e.g. address, city, state in one column) in your data collection.
