Personalizing Forms with Answer Recall

What is Answer Recall?

Answer Recall allows you to take a respondent's answer from an earlier question and insert it into a later part of the form. For example, if you ask for a user's name on Page 1, you can greet them by that name on Page 2.

This creates a personalized "flow" that increases engagement and completion rates.

Pro-Tip: Fallback Text

Always ensure the question you are recalling is set to Required. If a user skips a question and you try to recall it later, the text will appear blank. Making the source question mandatory ensures your sentences always make sense!
