Show one question at a time....
In Slido, for example, you can create one form with multiple questions, and the presenter/moderator can "release" only one question at a time. The audience scans QRC once, but is only sees one question at a time as released by presenter. With Forms, as soon as the audience scans the QRC they see all of the questions on the form. So, presenters have to create separate forms for each question, requiring audience to scan QRC for each question separately.
Releasing all of the questions at once is perhaps useful for a Quiz at the end of training, for example. But if I'm making a presentation and I want to poll the audience along the way, I don't want them to see all the questions at once; with MS Forms, it seems I have to create separate, one-question, forms.
Deborah Stuckey Forms can split your questions into separate sections and you can have 1 or more questions in each section.
To add a new section, when you click Add new you select Section from the dropdown:
So in this example I've got my original question (which is automatically put into section 1) plus 3 additional sections, each with 1 question:
When the form is used each section appears one at a time

Rob_Elliott -- While I appreciate how Sections can be used, it still differs significantly from Slido. With Slido, the presenter can release each question separately. The participants scan the QRC one time, and see only one question at a time. When the presenter releases the second question, they do not have to scan a separate QRC code, their device simply shows them the next question. Using sections in Forms as you described, the audience can still click Next and go ahead to the next question. As best I can tell, with Forms, the only way to prevent audience from advancing through all the questions is to create each question as a separate form.
Deborah Stuckey Well sorry but I have no idea what Slido is or what a QRC code is. You asked about sections in Forms which is what I answered. There's nothing more I can tell you.

Principal Consultant, SharePoint and Power Platform WSP UK (and classic 1967 Morris Traveller driver)Slido is designed to take polls during meetings so you make each question available when you want your audience to answer it. In fairness, it's not really what Forms is designed for.
However, I'd like to see an option to allow Forms to only show one question at a time simply because later questions within a section can sway answers earlier in the section.
Doing it as a separate section for each question doesn't really meet these requirements as it renders the actual value of having sections null and void.
