    • Automatic spreading of tables on mobile devices: A table type question and all subtypes and table type question sets are automatically displayed on mobile devices as a set of basic question types. For example, if we have a type of question “table- one answer” with 5 different sub-questions, the question will appear on mobile devices in the form of a set of 5 consecutive questions of category type - one answer. In doing so, we can turn on the possibility that these issues are automatically raised. When the respondent answers a sub-question, it closes (respondent’s answer is shown under the question) and opens a new one. More >>
    • Repeating the title bar (in the case of multiple items): If we have a table with a large number of items (e.g. 20) in the survey, we can set the title bar (the answer bar – e.g. I agree - disagree) to repeat every 5, 10, 15, or 20 items. More >>

  • Possibility of automatically opening block questions on PC and mobile devices: If we organize the questions into blocks, we have the additional possibility to set the questions inside the block so that they are automatically opened when the respondent answers the question. More >>
  • Additional warnings when deleting test data: Testing the questionnaire is a very important part of the survey process. With the help of test entries, we can collect test unit comments in addition to test data. It should be noted that with one click it is possible to delete test entries from the survey when they are no longer needed, but any comments on the questions are also deleted. Therefore, we recommend that you export and archive comments before deleting test entries. More >>
  • The logo change also applies to mobile devices. If you personalize the online survey with your logo, the setting you made for the survey on PC will also apply to the display of the survey on mobile devices. More >>

In that case, the table-single answer will transform in a way, that answers (e.g. factors, characteristics) are set in the middle and the categories (e.g. most important, least important) are set leftmost and rightmost.
