I wondered if you will update the standard templates, I was looking for one called 

Field Situation Report

This is the info I have from https://emcomm-training.org/Winlink_Thursdays.html and the April 14 training 

The Field Situation Report (hereafter “FSR”) is a new, “mappable” Standard Template. The FSR was released on March 30, 2022, as part of the Standard Forms update 185. As a mappable template, you can use the built-in capabilities of Winlink Express to view FSR messages that have been sent to you. If you’re not familiar with the mapping capabilities of Winlink Express, the Winlink developers have produced a short introduction to those capabilities: Mapping Enabled Winlink Forms. Note that the presentation highlights the use of the SHARES/SpotRep 2 template. SpotRep 2 is very similar, but different from FSR. This exercise will only use FSR


Thanks,

Norman

Just and FYI, I was able to get one of the new templates loaded, on my phone, wondering an automated way through WoAD, for me to load it, I had to first play with the "Other templates location" setting and change to App-specific External and use the default setting for the path.  I had downloads from WinlinkExpress (On my windows PC) the forms I needed to email, so then download them on my phone, to the downloads folder, but then you can't see the folder com.sumusltd.woad.files even if you look in hidden files, so I used a USB cable and hoked up my phone to in this case with a Chromebook then using the "Android Auto" connection option, I was able to see the hidden folder data/com.sumusltd.woad/files, and copy the new templates there.  The I close WoAD and stop the program and open again and am able to see the new templates, after I select other.  If would be great if there was an upload option in the templates that I could just select them and they got copied to the correct location.

Thanks again for the program,

Norman
