Adding the survey form to the home screen of a mobile device

Once you have the data collection link for your survey, data can be collected at that link using any device with a browser. To save the link to a device, you can bookmark it in the browser, or you can add an icon to the device’s home screen that will take you to the survey form. The method for adding an icon to the device’s home screen depends on the device and browser being used:
