GTS Collect

GTS Collect is a version of ODK collect that has been integrated with the GTS Tracker, to use GTS Collect refer to the section Opening GTS Collect in the GTS Tracker section of this guide.

Since the GTS Collect is integrated with the GTS Tracker, there is no need to open it separately and therefore no application icon appears on Android devices for GTS Collect.

GTS Collect can coexist with standard ODK Collect application on the same device.

GTS Store

GTS Store is a repository of mobile applications, similar “Google Play Store” or the “Apple Store” and specific to the GTS mobile applications.
