Microsoft Forms jumps to the top of the page when editting
I've created what is so far a very basic form with one section and a multiple choice question in the form. As I add new options for the multiple choice, the form keeps jumping to the top of the page - it seems to be whilst it is "saving". This issue seems very similar to:

This is very frustrating as I have a lot of questions to add and what I'm editting keeps jumping out of view as the page resets to the top.
- I just wanna put a heads up (if there's an admin who will check this thread), that it's still a problem for me in 2022. I tried the suggestion of closing the browser and reopening it but it still jumps to the top. I hope this can be fixed... I really prefer MS because it's neat but sadly it's pretty much useless for me now.

I am having this exact same issue right now. Makes the program unusable. nicksutcliffe_q
Joe_Winkelbauer I think I got rid of this by completely closing my browser and then going back to the form.
- Thank you! That might have worked.

- Me too - very annoying
- +1 for this - using Safari on Mac w/ most recent software update
I'm encountering the same problem (2/2022). Please fix this or will have to find another option for creating forms (i.e., Google)nicksutcliffe_q
I've had the same problem intermittently for a week or two now when creating new Forms. Very frustrating!
However, I may have stumbled upon a work-around. The problem went away when I add branching and then cancelled it as follows:
- click the ellipsis "..." next to any question
- choose "Add branching"
- click "Back"
rccryan I have this issue when using the form on my android phone
Is there a known fix? It was working yesterday and today it's acting up.
khalidfirdausi I wouldn't expect good results with in Android, but it might depend which browser you are using. I'd suggest the following:
a) Put your Android browser in desktop mode (e.g., in Chrome, tap the 3 vertical dots, then check the box for "Desktop site").
b) Try a different browser (Chrome, Firefox, and Brave are my three favorites, but I understand Edge is now available for Android).
c) Don't use Android, use a Windows computer with the MS Edge browser.
