Modifying and deleting interviews (AskiaFace for Android)

If you have previously saved an in-progress interview, you can access that saved interview in order to complete the interview, modify the data, or simply delete the interview. In the survey list, tap the survey name, then modify interview (note that you must have saved at least one in-progress interview for this option to be available). The modify interview screen appears. This shows each stored interview on a separate line, indicating the date and time each interview was last modified, and the status of the data (complete or incomplete):

As shown in the above screenshot, the interview data can be in one of two states:

• Complete: data file is labelled intvw_xx.xml

• Incomplete: data file is labelled incpl_xx.xml

Modifying an interview

To modify an incomplete interview (e.g. to resume an interview), simply tap the interview in the list. The interviewing screen opens, displaying the question on which the interview was previously abandoned. You can simply resume the interview where you left off, or go back and amend previous answers as necessary, by using the navigation buttons. For more information, see conducting an interview.

Deleting an interview

You can permanently delete interviews (whether they are complete or incomplete) stored on your Android device, before they are synchronised back to the AskiaField server.

To delete an interview:

1. If the modify interview screen is not open, in the survey list tap the survey name, and then tap modify interview.
2. Locate the interview you wish to delete and tap it with a long press (tap the interview, and keep your finger held down). The bin icon appears in the top-right corner of the screen.
3. Tap the bin icon to delete the interview. The interview is permanently deleted.
