Have you ever wished you could make the survey more inviting and engaging? Have you ever thought there is a collection of nicely rendered edgy backgrounds to solve this in one click? Microsoft Forms is on this! We are excited to share that animative live theme is now 100% LIVE both for commercial and consumer users!

 

What is Live theme?

Live theme is a type of animative background which could auto-replay on its own like endless loop. In survey or quiz scenario, these animative live themes will create a different feeling of engagement, connections and inclusiveness between survey senders and its audience.

 

How will it work?

IF you are opening Microsoft Forms looking for any inspirations, check out our latest theme collections. A series of featured live themes were prepopulated for you together with other static backgrounds, feel free to pick any of them, without zero worries about copyright or quality.

What’s more? IF creating for a specific working scenario such as Education, Event organization or Engagement related surveys, you will also see a set of predefined live theme automatically recommended based on relevancy and hopefully save your time searching and navigating.

Does this work on quiz, or only in forms?

Live theme works for both quiz and forms.

 

Can I insert my own live themes?

No, for better quality and rendering performance only Microsoft Forms featured live themes are supported at current stage. For further extensibility and diversity, we will introduce more high quality live themes in coming future.
