About

Admin users can control the visibility of the Sent, Forms, and Inbox tabs on the mobile devices of all users on a team.

  • Teams who ONLY dispatch forms may wish to hide the "Forms" tab.
  • Teams who NEVER dispatch forms may wish to hide the "Inbox" tab.
  • Some teams may wish to hide the "Sent" tab to reduce clutter, or to eliminate visibility of data to mobile users who are not supposed to see the results of submitted forms.

Note: If the "Inbox" tab is hidden, and users are dispatched forms, they will not be able to see or use them. Similarly, if the "Forms" tab is hidden, and a user is assigned user-initiated forms, they will not be able to see or use them.
