The latest release of the ODK 2 Tool Suite is now available for download!
The v2.1.0 tools are not backward compatible with previous versions (v2.0.*). The incompatibility is internal to the ODK tools, all external files such as XLSX forms, JavaScript/HTML, and server interfaces are unaffected. Most users should experience a smooth upgrade.
The ODK 2 Tool Suite is an alternative to the ODK 1.x Tool Suite rather than a replacement. ODK 2 is designed for complex workflows and information management. A simple migration path between 1.x and 2 does not yet exist because they are based on different standards.
Detailed documentation about the 2 Tool Suite can be found at https://docs.opendatakit.org/odk2.
ODK v2.1.0 can be downloaded from:
Application Designer v2.1.0
Services v2.1.0
Suitcase v2.1.0
Survey v2.1.0
Tables v2.1.0
