### 3/5 — Has been working great until I upgraded to iPhone 17 pro

*2025-11-02*

This app works very well I have been using it for well over a year I would say without issues. Me and a co worker both upgraded to iPhone 17 pro and now the app will not function for taking site pictures. I have erased the app and reloaded it and re logged in to my account with no luck. Hopefully this issue can be solved soon

### 1/5 — Needs to be able to hook up to CarPlay

*2025-05-17*

This app needs to be able CarPlay accessible . Why should I always be having to look down at my phone when I can easily see the vid screen in my truck. It’s 2025 get with the times

### 4/5 — Photo library

*2024-11-29*

It’s important to know that photos aren’t stored on your device after capture - they can only be retrieved from the webservice. This will hopefully be addressed in the near future as it is a significant deficit from the point of view of our users. It would be good if this was a configurable option.

### 5/5 — Great tool for riparian buffer inspection

*2024-02-02*

I configured a hosted feature service in AGOL then configured a Quick Capture app to annually inspect trees and shrubs planted as riparian buffers. It works great with a Bad Elf Flex Mini GPS and I averaged 1.6 m horizontal and 2.6 m vertical accuracy for collected points. I was able to inspect and record trees and shrubs at normal walking speed.

### 5/5 — Hi Mr.Winbigler

*2023-09-20*

Hi

### 5/5 — On the go app

*2021-07-09, version 1.9.127*

Best app for rapid survey

### 5/5 — Excellent, Easy to use

*2021-07-09, version 1.9.127*

This mobile app has been customised and successfully used by the IT wing of Uttar Pradesh Forest Department for geotagging hundreds of thousands of plantation sites in real-time. The ease of use and it’s integration with arcGIS Enterprise has led to  its widespread adoption by various participating departments in the mega plantation drive of 300 million saplings. Field officers of the department has been  raving about this app that has given credibility to the plantation efforts.

### 1/5 — App not responding

*2021-07-04, version 1.9.127*

App got stuck on the white and orange page after entering the url , and then after waiting for 10min its says the service is unavailable

### 1/5 — Update no longer allows access to program

*2020-07-21*

When I updated this app to Version 1.6, I can no longer access it. I click the app button and the program opens and immediately disappears. Before this update I would have given it a 4 star review. I would give it a 0 star review now if I could.

**Developer response:** Hi furJenBee. We are sorry to hear this. If you would be so kind, please email quickCapture@esri.com so we can contact you and resolve this problem.  So far we have not seen other people having this issue. Finding more about your particular case could help us understand the root cause.

### 4/5 — Needs a tutorial at the beginning

*2020-04-12*

Super confusing to use at first because it needs you to create layers in ArcGIS online first which I didn’t realize, but works well functionally.
