QField focuses on efficiently getting GIS fieldwork done and exchanging data between the field and the office in a comfortable and user-friendly way.
QField has won the prestigious Best of Swiss Apps Award 2022 in the enterprise category and thanks to its native integration with QFieldCloud, your fieldwork will be as efficient as possible.
Built on top of the popular QGIS open-source project, QField lets users consume fully configured projects in the field, allowing for customized feature forms, map themes, print layouts, and more, bringing the power of QGIS to your fingertips.
Leveraging open source libraries such as gdal, SQLite and PostGIS, QField reads, displays and allows editing of a wide variety of spatial vector and raster datasets. Users can view and modify datasets wherever they are, whether they have been downloaded onto your device, shared in emails or transferred via USB cable.
The supported formats include:
- QGIS project files (.qgs, .qgz, as well as geopackage-embedded projects);
- SQLite-based geopackage and spatialite databases;
- GeoJSON, KML, GPX, and shapefile vector datasets;
- GeoTIFF, GeoPDF, WEBP, and JPEG2000 raster datasets.

Work easily lost
A whole days work can easily be lost when the data will not push to the cloud. I wish you could save changes to your devices drive too incase the synchronisation doesn’t work. Additionally it can’t use a Bluetooth gps device on iOS.
Getting there
I have been using the Test Flight versions for a while now and it has improved so vastly in the past six months that I can now start using it and adding assets and site notes in the field!
Fantastic to have all the QGIS maps unaltered running so well in my palm.
Great app
Finally on iOS, this is a game changer!
So far so good - a couple issues
So far the app is working well. It is useful for being able to create polygons of objects in canopy height models and satellite imagery.
Something that I think would make this app better to used would be to give the option of choosing where certain features are on the screen. For example, the green tick and Red Cross that are in the bottom right when drawing a polygon would be useful to have in the left hand corner so that when you are drawing a shape file with a stylus you can easily confirm the edit without having to cross under your other hand.
