Add a comment box question
Comment questions are open-ended, which means the respondents can provide free form text feedback instead of being limited to predefined options. Comment questions create an opportunity to collect in-depth responses and detailed opinions on a topic or problem. But it also requires more time and effort to complete. Use it moderately to avoid exhausting your respondents.
| ICON | TYPE | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|---|
![]() | Single line response | Comment box that only allows one line. If the text is longer than the box length, the overflowing part will not be displayed. |
![]() | Multiple line response | Comment box that contains more than one line with customizable height. |
