- I am looking for an app (Android), which can facilitiate a qualitative, digital ethnography study with a main component of diary entries in form of visual, text and audio.
- I plan to work with 10-20 participants based in Tanzania over a duration of 18 months.
- I have so far primarily used WhatsApp (chat and call for both self-reporting and interview over video/phone) based on the idea of using a tool participants already are familiar with, but it is hard to structure/organise mixed data and many participants.
- I have checked out dScout, Indeemo and FlexMR, but I have different kinds of doubt (approach and budget) + this earlier thread from 2014 https://www.researchgate.net/post/Is_there_an_existing_digital_tool_for_diary_studies
Any suggestions for free apps, apps particularly directed at ethnographic research (and not marketing) are very much welcome as well as any research papers on the use of diary studies combined with digital ethnography (preferably in Africa) and/ or the use of whatsapp in qualitative research in Africa (I am familiar with https://edoc.unibas.ch/51923/1/20161216110618_5853bc9abba73.pdf)
Thanks!

Thank you Uchendu Eugene Chigbu . I am looking for an app which participants use on their phones, self-reporting data (text/visual/audio). It does not seem clear to me if Nvivo, Atlas etc provide that. I did check the ATLAS app, but it looks a bit outdated to me - and I am not sure how it supports transfer of data from participant to researcher.
Contact Glenn Hinson ([email protected]) and Patricia Sawin ([email protected]).
Thanks William Ferris , I would however prefer a bit more context before I contact them.
