And a template makes the work of crafting a survey/quiz much easier.Īnd well, you can also combine these templates with existing themes to spruce up the look.Īs opposed to the above, Typeform comes with drool-worthy templates and themes. Though there are less than 20 templates, the odds are more that you will find one that matches your requirement.įor now, there are templates for event registration, job application, and party invite, among others. Expectantly, like all Google products, Forms also bundles a bevy of templates. When it comes to Forms, you can either build a quiz from scratch or pick one of the many available templates. Should you have such type of entry on your questionnaire, it does make the drafting part a lot easier. Interestingly, the Picture question type also lets you add pictures as answers to multiple-choice questions. Similar to Google Forms, just a tap on the Image/video icon will do the trick. Yeah, you can add video and images in between questions on your form. When it comes to embedding media items, Typeform lets you do both. You can’t add multiple-choice questions based on pictures.
This integration means that as long as you have access to your Google account, you can create your forms from just about anywhere.īut there’s a slight catch. The best part is that you can upload images from your PC, or you can search for the same via the Google Search option.īut the option that I like the most is the integration of Google Photos and Google Drive. So, if you want your form to begin with a beautiful video or a soothing welcome picture, it’s possible. Interestingly, Google Forms lets you add pictures and videos in-between form. Embedding Video and Other MediaĮmbedding videos and pictures in forms and surveys makes them more attractive and engaging. But in hindsight, all the different question types can confuse a first-time form creator. It tries to settle everything from the get-go. Overall, I liked the approach of Typeform. You can specify the maximum number of words in a ‘Long text’ question or the maximum number of a number field. That said, Typeform also comes with its own set of validation. So, if you want a particular filed to be for an Email, Date, or a Number, you have to specify the type when you make the form. While Forms lets you decide if a text-based field will be for Email, URL, or Number, Typeform segregates and nips the issue in the bud by categorizing them as different types. Typeform takes the short route when it comes to validation. The responses part will be taken care of by Forms. All these can be taken care of when you create the quiz. The same holds for Emails, URLs, and text-based answers. For instance, if you have a field marked for age, you can specify that the answer can only be a number between 0 and 50 (or some other number).
