Is it possible to allow users to "add another" answer?
Hello!
I cannot see a way to do this on MS Forms but perhaps someone has a workaround.
Is it possible to give responders the option to add multiple answers to the same question - almost like giving them the ability to enter one answer and submit the Form, or click a button to enter a second answer without having to submit multiple forms??
Something like, my attached terrible diagram!
RMDUser1 that isn't possible, there is no looping back to answer the same question a second time.
The only very-clunky workaround is to have the same question in several different sections. After the first question and each section you'd have a choice question for "do you wish to answer this question again?":
- If they answer no that would branch to either the end of the form or some other question.
- If they answer yes then it branches to the next section with the same question. Again that section has the choice question and branches as before.
It's more work but is the only way to achieve this currently.
