    Sorry if I am missing something obvious.

    Hello I9o,

    On the Edit Form screen there’s an action menu in the upper-right corner. Just tap that and then tap “Delete Form” when the action sheet displays.

    Hope that helps!

    To delete one form from several of same type (example: Membership forms)- go to summary screen for that type form – you can then swipe either left or right like striking a match and a red delete button will display for deleting that particular completed form.

    If you only had one membership form – you can select the folder icon (with an arrow next to Star Icon) at top right part of screen – this will offer several options including one to delete the form.

    If you want to delete several forms at once – go to summary screen and hit the folder icon (with arrow) in upper right corner – which will give several options including one to delete all forms.

    Hope this helps.

    Brendan’s method worked, but not too well. Deleting the form with about 1000 records froze the app and I had to force quit. Re-tried a few times wirh same result. Then I deleted all records first and THEN deleted form. That worked.

    For Patrick,

    Where’s the summary page ? Do you mean the ‘Forms’ tab ? I cannot get ‘swipe to delete’ action to work on that page. It only opens the form for me.

    Where’s this arrow and Star icon. I am afraid we are not on the same page .. literally.

    The app isn’t frozen when it’s deleting a form. It’s just unfortunately not displaying the busy indicator. It will eventually come back just fine. I need to add a progress indicator when it’s deleting a form. Sorry about that.

    The swipe to delete only works on the list view of a particular form. So if you have a form with more than 1 record, you will get a list of records. Swipe to delete works there.

    The arrow and star icon is on the Edit Record screen. The star icon sets that record as a favourite. The arrow icon brings up the action menu.
