Autosave entries

[Tuna9129]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We have received numerous comments from users saying that it is frustrating that their responses (especially free responses such as when journaling) are not autosaved. Currently, if users exit from the activity or fully close the app, users have to start over.

Describe the solution you'd like We would like for there to be an autosave option (for activities in progress) such that when a user starts an activity, their responses are automatically saved. Even after completely closing the app, if the user returns to the same activity, they should be able to pick up from where they left off.

@Tuna9129 @avaidyam Do you mean to save it as incomplete activity events or to resume the activity when the user re-opens the application? Is this change applies to all the activities including games?

@carlan1 please see above

@sarithapillai8 resume the activity when the user re-opens the application. Instead of all activities, can we just do activities with user text responses?

[sarithapillai8]

@carlan1 @michaelmenon @ZCOEngineer @Tuna9129 @avaidyam As per the discussion, we will be implementing this for activities like - Journals, surveys, and DBT diary cards. We will be saving the activity data locally for resuming the activity. Once the user saves the activity, these data will be saved as activity events and local data will be cleared.

@sarithapillai8 I think the clarification for this issue is that we need to store the application state so if the user or system reopens the app/dashboard we return them to where they were. This is not about saving activity-specific data locally (meaning, there should only ever be one active activity and event data bundle saved offline at a time, i.e. if there is an incomplete survey there CANNOT ALSO be an incomplete jewels game).

We have updated the following changes in Dashboard Staging. Please Confirm.

This does not appear functional in staging - the data does not save, nor is there a dialog

[divyav2020]

The functionlity was working. This may be due to update of some current fixes. We will fix and update you as early as possible.

[carlan1]

Just to clarify, we do not want to save any partial or incomplete ActivityEvent here. There should only be an ActivityEvent saved if a participant chooses to submit their response.

[ZCOEngineer]

Yes @carlan1

[divyav2020]

We have updated the fix in Dashboard Staging. Please Confirm.

[carlan1]

Could you change the dialog text to: "Would you like to resume this activity where you left off?"

[ZCOEngineer]

We shall change this and update

[sarithapillai8]

@carlan1 Updated the dialog text in staging.
