Folders
Right now all the Forms are just in one page and I cannot move them. I have 5 different content classes and I can't search for the Form that I need in an efficient manner. Please create folders that we can label and move forms into. Just like a regular folder on a desktop. It is just a random list. No organization, not efficient, not going to be easy to use in the future.

External Users be able to upload files
External users can upload files to forms. Only users that are within the org can upload files. This is impractical for Non-profit customers that want to use forms to get files from volunteers. For forms to work, you have to licenses every user, this case every volunteer, with an account in order to upload a file. Other form solutions allow anyomous file uploads.
This creates issues now using another forms solution, then using Zapier to get the file ingested to a OneDrive location, and then finally using Flow ("power automate") to get that file into a Sharepoint library.
OR... you…

Restore locations
Currently if you have to restore data in Forms then you can ONLY restore to the live "space". If your form is still live this will break future forms responses and create either duplicate or replacement responses per ID.
This is a VERY poor solution for a restore - you should be able to restore the data to an alternative location or data file for examination that doesn't affect the live form and subsequent responses.

Enhanced restore period
Currently, according to the Product Group forms data can be restored for up to 30 days post "deletion" or loss.
This restore period should be a longer period of time (perhaps 90 or 180 days) to reflect simmilar restore periods in SharePoint and OneDrive for Business.

Allow respondents to upload photo, audio or video in their response submission
This would allow respondents to easily insert a photo, video clip, or audio clip in their response
Perhaps would allow them to use their camera/mic on phone

Implement automatic questionnaire submission at the end of time.
Implement the option to automatically send the questionnaire when the time limit is reached. Example the student is in question 7 and there are 10 questions, if he arrived at the time limit of the questionnaire and it is not over, he is unable to send, we have some examples in which the student forgets time and when sending he is unable to send more, because the sending time. With that it is correct to be automatic ending with what he has done so far if possible until a timer with the shutdown.

Add a way to restrict the default sharing scope when sharing externally

Add a way to restrict the default sharing scope when sharing externally
■Description(内容):
運用上、グループ会社から外部へフォームの共有を行う予定となりますが、グループ会社 A のパートナーとなる外部の企業がグループ会社 B にとっては競合会社となる場合があります。
そのため、外部へフォームを共有する際に情報流出を避ける必要がありますが、Microsoft Forms の外部共有機能としては、[リンクを知っているすべてのユーザーが回答可能] しか選択肢がなく、運用に沿いません。
セキュリティの観点からも共有先の限定 (ドメイン指定等) ができる機能を強く希望します。In our operation, there are plans to share forms from our group companies to external parties, but there is a possibility that external companies which are partners of one of our group companies may be competitors of another group company.
Therefore, we need to avoid leaking information when sharing forms externally, but there is no way to restrict the selection of sharing settings in the Forms external sharing function to…19 votes -

add warning in Microsoft Forms that response data is lost when a question is deleted
When you delete a question in Microsoft Forms, all response data is immediately deleted. There is no warning of this behavior. There are also no self-service restore options though Microsoft can restore to a point in time if you open a support ticket.
Yes, there are better ways to retain the data by connecting your Form to a List with Power Automate but the problem here is that Microsoft is not providing end users with the information they need to make an informed choices on their Forms.
When an end user tries to delete a SharePoint Team site, there is…

Allow multiple line maths expression in MS Forms
When creating Maths Quiz, long mathematical expressions get truncated in mobile view. Please allow multiple lines of maths expressions.
Still better if full Latex features are allowed, so that we can copy paste from MathType in latex form.
I am attaching screenshots of desktop view and mobile view of the quiz. You can spot the difference in the equations.37 votes
