Some known issues with Uinta Android:

  • Shared fields
    • The same field cannot be reused on the same form; it must be newly created again.
    • You can share a field using the “use existing” feature if it is on a separate record type.
  • Deleting all records
    • Deletion may also be slow if several records are being deleted.
  • Large lines/polygons
    • Collecting over 1000 points in a line or area can cause the application to behave slowly. If you are using auto GPS capture, try to reduce the frequency of point capture to only what is needed.
  • Large data sets
    • Importing large data sets (10,000+ features/records) into a cloud project is not currently recommended.
    • Future improvements to the software will address the slowness of synchronization of large data sets. Using offline reference layers such as mbtiles is preferred.

Note: This issue will be addressed in a future version. Please contact Juniper Systems if you need help supporting large data sets.
