Setting up an account is very much like doing taxes. I stopped when I found myself tempted to tap ok just because there was no way to back out. Like partnering with organizations I never heard of. Now I remember why I didn't get involved years ago.

I am a Nature's Notebook observer and I have been on the staff for many years, but never used our mobile app in the past because I did not trust the technology. I learned as a young scientist to ALWAYS make and keep a hard copy of your data in case the digital version vanished in a computer glitch, so I have used paper data sheets and subsequently entered the data online all this time. This updated version of the app not only is easier to use, but it also allows you to review the data you just entered and verify that is has synced with the database. I was cautious the first few times, but now I have abandoned my paper and pencil method for good!

Probably because I have a smaller phone, the keyboard covers up what I’m trying to type. No way to edit typos in site comments, either, because of the same issue.
