About KoboCollect

KoboCollect is a mobile data collection app built for field researchers, humanitarian workers, and development professionals who need to gather primary data in remote or offline environments. Adapted from the trusted ODK Collect platform, this app lets you conduct surveys, interviews, and structured data collection without requiring an internet connection.

Set up is straightforward. Create a free KoboToolbox account on your desktop, design your custom form with unlimited questions and submissions, then sync the app to start collecting. The app handles multimedia inputs—photos, audio, GPS coordinates—so you can capture rich data even in challenging field conditions. Offline functionality means your work continues uninterrupted, and submissions sync automatically once connectivity returns.

Once you've collected your data, manage and analyze everything through your KoboToolbox online account. Visualize results, run analysis, share findings with team members, and download reports in multiple formats. Advanced users can host their own KoboToolbox instance for complete data control and privacy—useful for organizations managing sensitive humanitarian or development information.

The app scales to large projects. Unlimited form capacity means you're not constrained by submission volume or complexity. Whether you're running a household survey across multiple districts, monitoring water points in rural areas, or tracking health outcomes in emergency response, this tool handles the workload without performance degradation.

Trusted by humanitarian organizations, academic researchers, and development agencies worldwide, KoboCollect combines professional-grade functionality with ease of use. The platform simplifies field workflows while maintaining data integrity and security standards that matter in high-stakes environments.

Download KoboCollect free—no hidden costs, no per-submission fees. Your first step is creating a KoboToolbox account to begin designing forms and launching your data collection project.
