Allow form respondents to save and continue to fill the form later

Allow students to save results without submitting test for students with accommodations to finish later. Students with extended time sometimes have to finish at a later time and the way it is set up now they have to restart the test each time.

    This feature to forms would be absolutely essential. We use it for applicant evaluations and some of the faculty interviewers like to fill out part of the evaluation form after reviewing their file prior to meeting and then after the interview, they go back and finish it. There should be the ability to "save as draft" or "finish later".

    Yes, this is essential - especially when videos are in the quiz, it takes time...

    This is very important. Our forms can take a while to fill and some of our clients policy is to close all computers at the end of the day for environmental reasons.
    This is a basic function. Hopefully Microsoft can solve this soon !!!

    Hi ,This is an urgent requirement to save details in partially and to update rest later and submission

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    This was posted almost 3 years ago. How is this not an option??? Forms are completely useless for teachers, and I suspect with many others, without this option. This is why I am constantly forced to use Google Forms - it is an option through their version.

    I takes time to finalise forms (can be long and time consuming) so it is absolutely required to have the functionality to save progress

    This request was shared more than 2 years ago. Microsoft do you have an status on where this feature is on the roadmap?

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    My annual survey contains many open-ended questions, the function of "save and continue later" would be helpful.

    We also urgently need this if we're to continue using MS Forms in our work.

    Please can you advise when this will be available ASAP

  • Fernando Garcia commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Please add this feature to your forms! We handle surveys that require follow up at a later date or time.

    Need this asap as some people fill the forms out on construction sites with little signal, and need to save and continue when they return to the office

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Please create a save and continue option asap. Also for those who want to submit forms, can they save a copy/download a copy.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    We're using MS Forms and when our forms submitters ask about the saving functionality, which they often do, we respond with "I don't know how Microsoft hasn't come up with this yet." It's needed and is not depicting Microsoft in the best light.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    Yes please this will be a very useful feature to allow you to not have to complete the form in one go
