A new update for our free iOS app MAXApp is now available for download from the iTunes App Store. Use MAXApp for your field research: collect data on-the-go, tag notes, images, video, audio with codes and memos, and easily transfer everything to MAXQDA via Dropbox.
This new update brings you the feature, a lot of you were hoping to see: TEXT CODINGYou can now tag documents or text segments within a document with text codes. Just open the code window and switch between the emoticode® view and the text code view by clicking the “smiley” or “T” icon.
We also took the chance to enhance a few more things in MAXApp:
New in MAXApp:
- code with text codes
- location tagging looks prettier
- beautiful new app icon to match the style of iOS 7
- several bug fixes
Textcoding in MAXApp
Code your collected data with emoticode®s or textcodes to pre-structure your data for the analysis in MAXQDA.
Entering a code is easy: Select the document or the text segment you want to code and fluidly switch between the emoticode® and the text code browser. You can pick from more then 300 emoticode®s or freely enter a text code.
Both types of codes are displayed right next to your document.
