Just your usual dark mode option for the app. We work at night doing surveys for animals, the dark screen is a lot easier on the eyes.

While it is possible to pre-load most of the relevant information into Fulcrum to reduce the need for manual entry—allowing field operators to simply make selections—there are often situations in the field where the preloaded options do not fully reflect real-world scenarios. In these cases, the “Allow other” field becomes very useful. However, its current implementation is limited, as it only allows for the addition of a single extra value. Would it be possible to enhance this functionality to allow users to add multiple values when necessary? This would greatly improve flexibility and accuracy during data collection in the field.

You are currently not able to apply visibility rules based on whether a photo field has content or not. We have a work around, utilizing calculated fields, but would prefer for this to be a bit easier and not need to add additional fields to get to the same result.

Can we please have the ability for child records to be color coded as per their priority rating or any data output of our choosing, so that the color coding appears on the child map and can been filtered accordingly. see attached map from a competitor who we are considering moving to if this can not be added to our fantastic platform.

Please and thank you :)

Example: Customer Information record for a client that we previously did work for. All we need is the customer's information (address, contact info, name) from the master record.

Hi Fulcrum Team, I’d like to suggest a new feature that would significantly improve our workflow—especially from a management perspective. We are currently working on multiple projects simultaneously, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to manage all the apps on a single page. While this setup may still be manageable for field staff, from a management view, we anticipate having to deal with over 40 apps across various projects in the near future. It would be extremely helpful if you could introduce a project-based system, where we can group all relevant apps under specific project tabs. This way, each project would act as a container for its own set of apps, providing a cleaner, more organized structure and making navigation much easier. Please let me know if this is something that could be considered for future updates. Thanks, Give Samarasinghe

Users would like the ability to PATCH records via the API so that they can update records without needing all of the record's form_values
