Surveys are great, and they just got better! Users can now answer questions with the help of tree collections. Select a general answer which will lead you to a more specific category. For example, a question configured to specify a location can start by asking for country, then region, and finally city.

In our ongoing effort to improve our GUI to make your life a little bit simpler, we have now added a new Actions button that floats near the bottom of the channels panel. The new button is an improvement to the "add channel" icon we had at the top of the channels panel. With the now more visible and easy to access Actions button, not only can users create new channels, but they can also open links, access different sections of the app, answer surveys, and even create tasks. Check out the documentation to see how admins can configure the new button.

It can be quite hard remembering the names of all the elements you have to work with within Cotalker. For that reason, we have now implemented an automatic dropdown menu search when you need to add names in a data field. Just type the first letters of the word you're looking for, and the dropdown menu will show the first names it retrieved from the database. Didn't find what you were looking for? Press see more results to continue the search!

Customizing your Database is an ongoing project. And because you're also always on the go, we've now improved our mobile app's design. A new save button has been added to the Database section so that you can save changes from your mobile device.

Time and mobility are essential concerns for "Cotalkers" everywhere. That's why we've integrated QR Code and NFC (Near-Field Communication) input into our mobile apps. Through API integration, surveys can now include data obtained by QR Code scans and NFC input with your mobile phone.

Accessing a task's data panel and changing its state is now just a click away! From within the task's channel, you can summon a pop-up menu to change the task's current state, and by clicking anywhere on the task's channel title bar, a side panel slides open with the task info.

Now it's easier to add extra information that can be associated with user profiles. Through the Additional Fields option, customized collections can incorporate new data fields into user models. The fields can collect data in string, number, date, boolean, and URL format. Files, other collections, or even users can also be collected through these fields. Fields can even be converted into arrays to host a series of items.
