Creating and sharing forms or surveys shouldn’t take hours. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by slow, clunky tools, Formester has your back. We’ve packed it with features that simplify form building, save you time, and make sharing a breeze.

How These Features Save You Time

These features work together to make form building faster and more efficient. Copying fields and cloning pages eliminate the need to redo tasks, saving you hours of work. Page breaks and progress indicators keep respondents engaged, improving completion rates.

This means you spend less time building forms and more time focusing on what matters, while your audience enjoys a smoother, more engaging experience.

1. Custom Themes

Don’t waste time designing forms manually. With Formester’s custom themes, you can change the look and feel of your form instantly. Just go to the design tab, pick a theme, and voila! Your form looks unique and professional without any effort. Perfect for branded or visually appealing surveys.

2. Copy & Paste Fields

Why recreate the same fields over and over? Use the copy-and-paste feature to duplicate fields with just a click. Press the copy icon, then Ctrl+V to paste wherever you want. It’s a lifesaver for long forms where you need similar questions.

3. Page Breaks

Make your forms neat and easy to read. Use the page break feature to split your form into smaller sections. Hover over a field, click the page break icon, and you’re done! It keeps your forms organized and user-friendly.

4. One Field Per Page

Want a modern, interactive form? With one click, you can turn your single page form into a multi-page or card-style design. Go to the page tab, click “One Field Per Page,” and you’re set. This saves time and makes your forms look amazing.

5. Hide Rich Text Fields

Need internal notes or instructions on the PDF copy of the form submission but not on the live form? Add a rich text field, hide it in the form, and choose “Show in PDF.” This feature is perfect for including extra information only in exported copies.

6. Page Clone

Save time with multi-page forms by cloning entire pages in one click. Use the “Clone” option in the page tab to duplicate a page along with its fields. No need to start from scratch every time.

7. Timed Submissions Start at a Specific Page

For quizzes or timed assessments, start the countdown timer only when the user reaches a specific page. Toggle on “Timed Submissions” in the advanced tab, set the timer, and select the target page. Great for giving instructions before the timer begins.

8. Show Question Numbers

Organize your forms easily by auto-numbering questions. Toggle on “Show Question Number” in the advanced tab, and Formester will number your fields for you. Rearrange them, and the numbers adjust automatically.

9. Disable Display Required Marker

Keep forms clean and professional by hiding the “*” symbol for required fields. Uncheck “Display Required Marker” in the advanced tab to remove clutter without changing the mandatory status.

10. Show or Disable Progress Indicator

Long forms can overwhelm users. Add a progress bar to show how much is left or hide it for simplicity. Just toggle “Show Progress Indicator” in the advanced tab. It’s a small touch that boosts the user experience.
