Success Criteria

  2. In the floating toolbar, tap Edit.

Success Criteria

Tips While Using

  1. Tap the header of the multiple options field.

  • Next action available: records display the updated option list when you fill them.

Tips While Using

  • Environment note: Android supports option editing, while more complex review work may be easier on a larger screen.
