    Hi there,

    When you archive a form, all of its submissions are also archived. Can you please elaborate on what is the actual problem? Which submission is not getting archived? Please let us know so we can assist you accordingly.

    Any of our forms are not updating the users phone app. For example if a form is archived through the database the form is still sitting in submissions within the app

    Ok, so you have archived two submissions on your Internal work order form but when you check the form submission via your JotForm app, those two submissions are still shown on that form. Is that correct?

    Are you using the Android app or the iOS app? Have you tried updating using the latest version, re-logging and check?

    Please try to log out and log in again in the mobile app. If this doesn't help, try to re-install the app.

    If none of the solutions work, please let us know so could report this to our backend team.

    Hi there,

    We apologize for the misunderstanding.

    I am able to replicate the issue on my end. It seems like we don't have a feature to archive submissions in the mobile app yet. I am escalating this as a feature request to our backend team. However, I cannot give you an ETA of when this will be implemented. You will be notified here as soon as there is an update.

    Feel free to contact us if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help you.

    Hi Stephen,

    Thanks for waiting patiently. It is now possible to Archive and Delete forms and submissions on the Jotform Mobile App.

    • You can view the Archived and Trashed forms through the main menu:
