Top features

JotForm Mobile Forms works great for a variety of professions, including

• Safety inspectors
• Oil and gas workers
• Repair professionals
• Construction workers

With the Voice Recorder widget, you can attach a voice recording to a form submission. An inspector can record an explanation of the problem rather than typing it on a small keypad.

You can also scan barcodes with the Barcode Scanner widget. Inventory and logistics employees can use this to more accurately collect data.

You can also record your location with the help of the Geolocation widget. There’s no need to type the address manually.

With JotForm Mobile Forms, you can assign forms to your employees to fill out. If they don’t have the app on their device, they’ll be prompted to install it.

You can also share your forms through email, other apps, or text.

At conferences and trade shows, you can use kiosk mode to collect information on your mobile device. Kiosk mode prevents users from accessing anything except the form you want them to fill out and refreshes the form after every submission so that you can easily accept multiple submissions.

You can conveniently enable and disable notifications and stay updated with the most essential information.
