Observing-iL

Observing-iL is for observing and coding continuously live events by means of an iPhone. Observing-iL is not a stand-alone application. It must download from iCloud a personalised configuration that was uploaded by a project manager running the master application Observing-L (macOS app). Without such a configuration Observing-iL is inoperable.

• If the observation comprises more than one task (Code-System) user must click "Switch Task" to get the next task
• Next task is displayed: User should select on the table those codes that match his or her observation for this task
