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.

So much more featured than SW Maps and better laid out. I’m really thrilled to see Bluetooth support and NTRIP, but unfortunately the app (v 4.2.4) has been very unstable for me (random crashes, sometimes within no more that 20s of getting RTK Fixed), to the point that I found it unusable in the field. Fingers crossed they can get these stability issues fixed soon, because it is much nicer than SW Maps. I hope my telemetry helps.
Excellent Asset Tracking

This application has helped me understand how to build an updatable tracking database for field asset management. The easy, intuitive demos and QField Community Forum have guided me from making a base level project to creating a system for a small company asset management template. Thank you to all the developers and users willing to share their tools and knowledge. Additionally, it’s fun to use for personal use and educational purposes.
Local Files and iCloud integration
Cardgar
I love this app and all the abilities it has unlocked! The only piece missing is the ability to open local files in iOS that could then be synchronized via iCloud. Would love to be able to work on a collaborative farm project with my family members through iCloud. Thank you so much for this amazing app!!!
Pretty nice

Very nice app, elegant UI. Their cloud service works well. With a bit of qgis knowledge the options are huge. I can get the measure feature in imperial units but cannot get the navigation/stakeout feature in anything but metric. If that were easy to get it'd be nearly a home run for me.
- Speed up project loading with large project files
- Insure the search bar is stacked above all other tool and action buttons
- Fix digitizing geometry not properly reset when adding features with form suppression turned on
- Fix QFieldCloud project attachment upload queue blocked when trying to upload to cloud projects that have been deleted from the server or cloud projects with which the authenticated user role changed to reader
- Fix 3D geometry overlay heights after zooming the 3D map view not adjusted
- Allow for 1-feature atlas layout prints through the side dashboard to automatically open the resulting PDF when single file mode is turned off
