Recently released

Bulk select surveys for deletion

Release 3.14.0 introduced the ability to select multiple surveys on your Dashboard. The first iteration of our bulk actions toolbar allows you to delete the multiple surveys selected. We will explore extending the actions on this toolbar in the future.

Survey bin and 30-day restore

Release 3.14.0 also introduced a new process for survey deletion. Surveys deleted from the Dashboard will now be moved to your Survey bin for 30 days before being permanently deleted.

The Survey bin can be accessed via the button above your survey list. You will be able to restore a survey to your Dashboard up to 30 days from deletion. You can also permanently delete a survey in the bin at any time.

Reorder Grid rows and columns

Release 3.13.0 addressed a pain point for users creating Grid questions. It is now possible to reorder Grid rows and columns. Just use the arrows underneath and beside the labels.

What's coming soon?

A new question type

We’re working on a new Rating question. This question will let respondents evaluate a statement on a visual scale of numbers, stars, or smilies.

We’re still busy putting the finishing touches on this, but expect to see it in a matter of a few weeks.

Other enhancements

We’re exploring an extension of our Finish later feature that will enable respondents to email their Finish later link to themselves, so they don’t lose it.

We’re also looking at an iFrame generator, so you can easily embed your survey into another web page.

No ETA for these just yet, but check back here for more updates soon.
