Hey everybody! I was wondering if there is a way for a form to record every answer as soon as it gets answered. I hope thats everything you need. If there’s more clarification required, don’t hesitate to ask :) 

Hi! 

Is there an update on this subject yet? I see the first comment is from two years ago..

Would love this feature, now I’m losing a lot of data due to people not completing the full form.


It is a shame that this has not been given more attention. There is a simple, crucial UX issue here: when you thank someone for their responses, they may believe they are “done.” But if they do not click the final button, all is lost.

Why can this not be addressed?


Hi @JBlanchard welcome to the community 😊

Thanks for sharing your feedback, it is something that our product team are looking into, so hopefully we will have some good news on this for 2024. We will keep everyone posted so look out in the community for updates! 


Any updates about it?


Hi @Debgon thanks for checking in, we don’t have an update yet but will post here as soon as we do!


Hi - just wondering if that has been resolved yet - having to hit Submit on the final question is still annoying and unnecessary for many forms.


Hi @JohanMM Thanks for stopping by! If you have a single-question form, we have enabled automatic submission. For forms longer than one question, the respondent does need to click the submit button. 


Hi. Are there any plans to enable this for multiple question forms as well?

I can see how this is very important for single-question forms, but it would still be incredibly useful for longer forms as well.

We will have to find an alternative solution because we want all of our data to be sent to Gsheets, but not all users are submitting the form.


Hi @Taichi Hobbs Thanks for stopping by the community! We don’t have this feature available for multiple questions, as we require the respondent to click the submit button to confirm they’re ready to send their data. 


Can’t believe it has been already 2 years since this was brought up, and Typeform hasnt prioritized this yet.

This is more important than stupid AI rewriting tools


Hi @Better Collective Do you mind sharing a bit more about your use case with removing the submit button? I’d be happy to share it to the product team!


I agree with all previous comments, would really like to  have the option to automatically submit when an option of the last question (multiplechoice) is clicked, just like the one question form. Even better have every (partial) response be saved when a form is abandoned.

This is especially pressing because of our use case, we have a form at the end of an email with two answers “yes” & “no”,  on “yes” the response is automatically saved as there is no follow-up question. On “no” there is a follow-up question “why not?” (multiple choice) but for this question two extra clicks are necessary (answer & submit) which respondent's might not want to do. As you can imagine this might even lead to skewed results.

I am not sure the (less than ideal) solution of linking forms will even work here, as the “yes” flow is perfect and doesn't need other questions added


Thanks for the feedback, ​@Evelijn ! I’ll share this with the product team. 😁


@Liz Any news on this one? Also looking to catch completed fields even if the user does not fully complete and submit the form


Hi ​@quentin_richelle we did release partial responses last year, which will capture information if they don’t submit the form. You can read more about this feature here
