In the data administration interface, you will always find a direct link to the observation in the web-app. This way, you can easily comment or help with a question if necessary.

You can preview the images of observations in the list in the data administration interface with an instant zoom. That way, you don't always have to open an observation if you just want to have a quick look at the picture.

In the data administration interface, you will find a list of all submissions by users.

Through multiple admin accounts, you can easily enable several project admins access to a project's collected data, its's download and all other backend functionalities.

Users can earn badges for specific numbers of contributions. These badges encourage long term participation and also give users a feeling of reward for their contributions without additional work for project admins. A certain number of predesigned badges are included for all apps, but custom ones can be designed for projects, and the number of badges can always be extended.

All notifications about community activity are displayed with the project icon & bubble. 

The newsfeed shows your users all activities of their community of people they follow, their friends and push-notifications that were sent out recently.

The project admins can directly send a message to all phones which have the app installed via push message. Thereby they can inform the whole community about important news, give valuable advice, etc.

All spots on the map feature an own comment section just below the observation's data. Users can post comments like questions or feedback and get in contact with each other. The project team itself can use an own registered user account for giving direct feedback to the participants. All comments display an "appriciation button" (heart) for liking. New comments, replies and comment-likes of are displayed in the user's newsfeed in the app to stay informed about new activity.

What's a community without the likes? The hearts right beside all observations and comments allow you and your users to give positive feedback to everyone contributing.
