Add ability to insert sections and instructional text
Make it possible to add sections (Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3) before or between questions, with the ability to provide "sub-title" text. For example, a section providing instructions for the next few questions.

It would be great to have a progress bar
It would be really nice to have a built in progress bar so people could see how much of a survey they have left

Connect results to Excel as a data source rather than opening a new workbook each time
The form is great in terms of collecting responses. That said, if you need to view all the data at once, you need to open the form results in Excel. If you do that, it appears to open a separate result each time. There is no way to edit the results workbook. For example, I want to add a column to the results where I can keep track of whether or not I have contacted the person since they have filled out the form. If I add that column to the table, it will be gone when I next click…

ability to e-mail user's responses back them
ability to e-mail user's responses back them, of course the user has to put the e-mail as on of the questions. Also a way to put this at the end of form. "A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided." MICROSOFT FORMS MUST be better than Google forms/surveys! Google forms has that option. See example.

Make the branching functionality more obvious when building questions, especially on the first question.
When designing questions, it should be obvious that branching is possible - this affects how questions are written. There should be some connection to it near the actual question creation. Either a direct option to branch from there, or a pointer to find the branching ability.

allow form responses to be sent to an email or multiple emails. we are trying to use microsoft form instead of google docs to no avail
My school wants to use microsoft form instead of google docs since our district is pushing the use of microsoft office products however the microsoft form does not allow you to send form responses to an email or to multiple emails. We want to be able to enter teacher feedback into the form and email the responses to the teacher, assistant principal and principal. Currently google docs allows us to email the form responses and chart our entries. Microsoft form using flow will only allow you to get a notification that a response has been entered which does us no…

Allow the full form to be sent via email. 50%+ higher response rates when the survey is in the email body, saving respondents a click.
Include the survey/form within the body of an email message in addition to the link to the survey. Response rates are higher when participants can respond from within the body of an email message.

Have the ability to disable external sharing
Have the ability to disable external sharing completely which includes anonymous links. Currently the option in the admin center for external collaboration is turned off, however we can still share a form using the anonymous links with external users so an option to truly disable external sharing would be good.

Allow Ability to Auto-Fill/Pre-Fill answers
Google Forms has an ability to Pre-Fill answers. You can even edit the Pre-Fill link to even change which Strings you would like to import.
This is done in Google Forms by assigning each Question a unique ID # and you can easily manipulate what you want the Answer to say by changing the ID #'s Pre-fill data.
I feel like Microsoft Forms should be able to implement something similar. I know a lot of businesses would like to import data quickly as well.

Allow Form to be added as web part
I am not sure if it possible currently or not. Is it possible to add Forms created as web part on SharePoint pages? If we can add the quiz created as web part on SharePoint pages, it would really be helpful.
56 votesThanks for your suggestion!
SharePoint page support embed content. Currently you can copy the embed code of a form (click “Share” button, select “Embed” in “send and collect responses” section ) and past the code to SharePoint. The form will show as a web part on Sharepoint page.
We will continue thinking about improving the experience. -

Registration Form
It would be nice to have an option that allows you to upload an ICS (calendar appointment) so the event (or session) can download it and added to their calendars

Allow authenticated but anonymous responses with one response per person
Forms should allow you to check the settings boxes for "record name" and "one response per person" independently. For things like voting we only want one vote, we want people to login to vote, but we do not want to see their name. Forms can store voting history to enforce single responses but should not need to display it to the Form owner.
