  • Very powerful tool.

    This is a fantastic app for data collection and completing checklists. My only request would be a MacOS app so you could create checklists in a desktop environment. Thank you for this app and empowering me to move away from excel.
  • Good App, few minor issues

    OK, so I've been using FormConnect for some time now (years) and it's a great app for creating electronic forms for collecting data that you can keep and recall easily. A couple of issues that I wish they would address. One, auto save when designing a form. It's hard when you work on a form for hours just to have the app crash and you loose all that work. I know I can hit save, but when you're in the heat of the design, it's hard to remember and the auto save function is a basic feature these days. The second issue is I purchased the Pro version (upgrade) and it shows me as Pro on the app, but the app store shows the regular version and there's nowhere that I can find a place to do any upgrades. Funny and perplexing, but other than those two, it's an awesome app.

  • Excellent Form App

    I've been using the Form Connect app for several years now. It is an excellent app for data collection. Far easier to use than other form apps that I have tried. Any issue that has come up in the past has been worked through with Steve...sometimes realizing the issue was on my end and sometimes resulting in new features being added to the app. I look forward to seeing what features lie ahead.

  • Great App

    I was looking for an app for contracts, with placeholders or dynamic fields. Every other app on the app store for this has been abandoned or not updated and is non working. This is great to make a pre populated form, easy to tweak if needed, can save without boxes in the final form so it looks more like a document and not a spreadsheet! No annual subscription, free initial app, but I bought the pro version for field calculations. APP developer updates frequently to keep up with IOS changes. ONLY thing missing for me is a native contact import field, until then I'm copying and pasting all info into a text box. Also would like a theme with a plain white background, no clip or notebook shown when a client signs a form. Change background where folders are kept would be cool, but minor. I've tried all the form maker apps, take my word for it this is the most customizable updated app in the app store, thank you!

  • Very Good Alternative

    With Adobe closing FormsCentral closing on 28th July 2015 I was looking for an alternative builder in particular one that would work seamlessly on my iPad. I have tried a few online alternatives that Adobe show on their website but they either were not that intuitive or expensive or other similar niggles. FormConnect I find so much easier, intuitive and certainly more custom-able than the others and FormsCentral. I am able to produce the form that I want to see and not constrained by the other web builder alternatives. It hasn't taken me that long to get to grips with FormConnect either and I would certainly recommend this app.

  • Signatures don't transfer

    There are so many things I love about this app. But one of the most important reasons I purchased this app was so that I could have forms where I could collect and maintain client signatures long term without a paper backup. A couple of weeks after I purchased the app I also purchased a new iPad. When you transfer data from one iPad to another, everything transfers except the signatures. I asked the company for support and at first they responded, but when even the solution they offered didn't work and I asked for another option they stopped responding. It's really unfortunate because this is a pretty good app in all other ways. But not having signatures on consent forms exposes my business. This app desperately needs to be updated so that when users change iPads or have multiple devices they are using to manage forms all data including signatures transfers

  • Great DIY alternative to pricey surveying apps

    I love this app. Has saved me time and money in getting others to type up old paper reports.

    Now we send our reports straight to our customers. Very easy to use and looks great when you send in pdf.

    Versatile app which is great for people who carry out lots of surveys.
  • App crashes

    I previously had this app on my iPad 4 and never had an issue with it.
    Now with the new iPad Air on the latest OS it will not keep running it just crashes all the time.
    I checked forums in regards to this and found a large number of very dissatisfied purchasers with the same problem.
  • Great

    I really like this form builder. I use it for ecological field surveys and enter biotic and abiotic data with ease. Takes a bit off fiddling around to figure out the best way to enter data to get a workable cvs file but worth the work. The entry is easy in the field and the data is ready to go as soon as I upload the cvs. Thank you for eliminating the mind numbing task of data entry. Please make updates to the pro version, that is not working well for me (location gps crashes app and calculation cell not user friendly).

  • Latest update data loss (v1.7)

    The latest version did a database update on first opening.

    Now every Page 1 (of 3) of any forms I have created are blank. As this contained client information to identify them Pages 2 and 3 are worthless as all Records are "unnamed".

    Prior to this really did enjoy utilising this app, but this is ridiculous, especially as all templates that came with the app have been updated unscathed.
