• android app for team data collection

  For QGIS, you have the choice of Input and Mergin https://inputapp.io/en/ or QField with QFieldCloud https://qfield.org/. For simple field surveys like yours I'd say Input would be the simpler option. Source: about 2 years ago

  Maybe even QField could be enough? Https://qfield.org/ Super easy to set up, especially if you already use QGIS and its project-files. Source: over 2 years ago

• which software (free) could I use

  Depending on how much data the survey work needs to collect, using QField (as a field companion to QGIS) might be a good idea (or a bad one, if the students might have difficulties setting up and configuring QField in their own devices). Source: about 3 years ago
