The latest version of Collector – Collector for ArcGIS v17.0.3 – is now available for both the iOS and Windows platforms. On the other hand, the latest version of Collector for the Android platform will be released this October.

Esri said among the top 3 key features of the latest version of Collector are:

• Passing collection information through the URL scheme -  When using the custom URL scheme to open Collector through another app, a website, or an email, you can now include information to start a collection. Pass information about the layer to add a feature to, as well as particular attributes and values to assign to them. This improves integration with Workforce for ArcGIS as well as 3rd party app integration coming with CityWorks.
• New 95 percent confidence interval setting – When doing data collection, Collector allows you to specify the accuracy you require to use the GPS to collect locations.
• Use Managed App Configuration with ArcGIS Enterprise – Streamline your add deployment by pushing the URL of your ArcGIS Enterprise portal through your mobile device management (MDM). When your users open the app, they will see the OAuth screen from your portal.
