  1. LIST VIEW FORMS - THIS FEATURE WOULD BE GREAT ONLY IF IT WAS ALSO AVAILABLE TO BE PDF DOWNLOADABLE AS WELL AND ABLE TO SEND VIA EMAIL. WHAT IS THE POINT IN CREATING THIS TO HAVE IMAGES IF YOU CAN NOT SEND THE IMAGES TO CUSTOMERS.

  2. Have the ability to upload an image while building out List View to have visible while filling out a form. This is different than an image field as the end user will not have the ability to change the image.

  3. It would be very nice if you could add a border around field for text and check marks. Right now it looks horrible when we have a required field and we can only add the background color. Also, this would help when we are creating a new form, we wouldn't have to add a square where the input field would go. We could just drop the field on the page and add a border so it shows on the page.

  4. GoFormz really needs to make a distinction between drafts, open, and completed forms.

    Right now, there are only draft forms and completed forms. This has caused me to run into a lot of walls while developing templates/workflows and managing our extensive forms.

    I propose that forms should have 3 distinct statuses:

    • Draft - A draft is a form that has been created, but has not yet been submitted by its creator. Drafts are simply forms where the creator has started up the form, used the "Save" feature to come back later, but hasn't actually submitted the form yet.

    • Open -…

  5. I recommend that the social security numbers option and letter resize will be very useful if it is formatted automatically.

  6. We would like the ability for the form designer to choose which time entry method is displayed for the Time field. In the desktop form experience, time entry is displayed as a window with 3 dropdowns (Hour, Minute, and AM/PM). However, on the same form in the mobile experience, the time entry is displayed in a clock face, where first you must select the hour on the clock face and then the minute, which we have come to realize is apparently confusing to some users, resulting in incorrect time entry. It would be ideal if the form designer could set…

  7. Bulk copy and past of Forms fields from one template to another. Example: copya and paste 50 pages to an old template (keep revision).

    I want to keep revision of my forms and want to copy and past (or import) other form that I have developed.

  8. When there are more than 2 tags on a form, you see the first two then a link that will say "2 more" if there was say 4. I'm left with enough empty white space for like 10 tags, and the 1 and 2 more situations feel silly to have to click in. Would be nice if there was more visible, say cut of at 5 or 4 instead of 2, or if it was dynamic and you can show as many as you have white space for.

  9. It would be nice if it is possible to add the function "required" in the table cell, as the check item allows. So it is not neccesary to add a lot of check marks in documents as check list. If it is availabla that option, it woud be faster to state as requited a long check list, using table cells instead of checks.

  10. Currently using the web app forms search allows you to search for terms only in the form name/title, so we are forced to put specific values into the title, such as Customer ID, Sales ID, etc.

    Unfortunately there are more fields we need to search by than would fit nicely in the name of each form, such as invoice numbers, personnel ID's, etc.

    It would be great if we could search specific fields within the forms; when creating a template, you can nominate specific fields/inputs to be indexed for searching.

    The down side of this is if you have 20…

  12. I love the idea of Default Form Names, but sometimes we want to add additional info manually to the names (for viewing by management and techs). For the future, if there was a way to be able to have the form fields chosen to be re-input automatically after default form name has been manually changed. (Example, I have the date field as an automatic form name. If we do not know the date of install and I update the form name with additional info, I would love if the date could still appear when we finally input a date later).

  13. It would be great if there was an option to test a public form without it eating into the cost of credits. We are testing functions that are only triggered when a public form is complete, our forms and workflows are still in development meaning we are paying to test changes for each public form we submit.

  14. Most of our forms follow specific naming conventions which helps with searchability, however, our naming conventions have changed over time, and new ID fields are required for improving searchability.

    For example, we may now need to put 'Invoice Number' into the form name so we can easily search that, or for when we export as PDF and store them or send them to clients.

    Being able to re-structure the dynamically created form name such as '[InvoiceNumber] - [CustomerName] - ([Address])' and then update ALL forms that are part of that template (and by extension previous template versions) would be very…

  15. Allow pictures to be saved off of forms that are submitted. Currently you can't save an image off of a form that has been submitted. We often get great photographs submitted on our forms that could be saved and used as project photographs to our project files. We are not able to do that off of the form right now.

  17. The ability to export both list view and form view in the same PDF - use case: the template is using form view for the first page and list view for techs to fill out. Both views need to be in the PDF

  18. The same way we are able to filter by User, Tag, Date Range etc... I think it would be great if we could also filter the forms tab to omit certain users, tags, or date ranges. Sometimes I'd like to be able to look at all forms that DON'T have a certain user, or tag.

  19. Is there way to make the search function for the database dropdown menu more dynamic? It requires you to type the phrase in the exact order which is a little bit restrictive. For example, if I am searching for the name William Florin Smith, I cannot type in William Smith, because it is missing Florin, it will only show up if I type in William Florin. Is there a way to make the search a little more dynamic with the options it shows?
