Jump to question

[chandlerroth]

I would love to be able to take the output of the block ref from the onQuestionChanged callback to be able to jump back to that question if the user reloads the page or form.

My scenario: I've got a Typeform with over 100 questions. Its great that Typeform saves the responses to these questions in localStorage, but I'd like to jump to the last question they responded to if the page reloads (because otherwise the user has to click through whatever questions they've already answered, which is annoying!).

Hi 👋, thank you for raising this. A feature like this is under consideration for our roadmap this year, we will let you know when something is planned

[chandlerroth]

@mattrobinson10 awesome, thank you! :)

@mattrobinson10 is there anything I could do to help out with this, or are there internals that have to be wired up in order to expose useful interfaces to this embed repo? One thought I had was the "Submit" button returns a user to a question with an error -- perhaps that's functionality to build on top of -- but I assume that's all internals of Typeform, right?

[mattrobinson10]

Yes you are correct, there will need to be some modifications to the typeform app itself, so that will need to be worked on internally. Thank you for the offer though, it's much appreciated!

This issue is stale because it has been open for 30 days with no activity.

This is still a need we have! Would make for a much smoother UX if a user didn't fill a very long form out, and had to refresh.

Hello, unfortunately the request was not picked up for the roadmap so far. It has been communicated to the product team however we can not commit to any deadlines at the moment. If the feature is developed, it will be communicated through standard channels, eg Typeform Community.

Any progress on this issue?

Hello @BEN00262,

unfortunately this feature has not been planned. I do not have any dates to share nor can I confirm if this feature will be developed.

An alternative approach for forms with a lot of questions might be splitting your questions across multiple forms. You can detect which forms were submitted already and let your respondents continue with the subsequent form. I know it is not a 100% solution, but it is close.
