This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for. Thanks! Is iNaturalist Next likely to replace the existing app?

Yes, it will replace what we’re calling the “legacy apps”.

Here’s what the new obs page looks like if there’s no location. The buttons at the bottom are grayed out:

And if you try to submit the observation anyway, you get a warning:

You can still submit it, but not without being told it’s not complete.

I did make a mistake earlier when I said you’ll see a pop-up if you try to save/submit an observation without an ID - you can do that.
