Help iOS users save their data

I ran into a situation recently where a user would not or could not remember to commit their changes before exiting their FileMaker Go solution on their iPad.

The truth is it's easy to complain that the user isn't using the system as it was intended. Complaining about the user doesn't really solve the problem, and we are problem solvers. This is custom software; it should work the way the user works, not the other way around.

In this case, the user was using an iPhone or iPad Mini. He pulls it from his pocket, opens a work order, adds some photos and notes, and then sticks the device back in his pocket. Then he does some work (like replacing a window in a building) and then takes some more photos of the completed repair.
