    Adding a timer shall indeed add to its beauty !
    Wonderful! However, it could be par better with add-ons such as a ltimer ⏱.

    I made the same comment in July - surprised that this basic and much needed feature is not yet available...

    Please add timers to Forms as soon as possible. I'm almost ready to go to another platform but don't really want to...

    Just wanted to add my voice to all the other people saying how much of a need feature this is. I need to do a 10 minute timed quiz. Please get this feature working! Thank You!

    Yes, but it will be more efficient if it is possible to determine a time for each question

    Especially in the current climate, this is a vital feature. We need to be able to set a time limit for a Forms quiz to mimic exams.

    I'm very irritated that I cannot do this. I took the time to set up an exam in Forms so that I could set a time limit. I got to the end and discovered that the feature does not exist. I should be able to set up the Form so that my students have an hour or an hour and a half to take the exam after they open it.

    It will be very helpful and during quiz time we will have idea how much time will be left to complete our quiz.

    It will be a great move i guess. We need it. But it will be greater if the system allows us some extra time as the submission time. May be 3-5 minutes extra.
