The option for a "back" button in the Surveys.

Currently in the Survey tool, the end recipient is unable to go "back" a page once they select "Next" page. Would love to have the option in case the end recipient needs to go back and edit/add/remove something. 

 

Adding content from @jascharf10’s related Idea:

It would be nice to have a back button on a multi-question survey, along with a submit button. For example, I am creating the following question in a multi-question survey:
 

backbutton-1c4ae324-7470-497c-ad74-f99864a361c2-556018068.png



And it would be nice if a customer could go back to confirm what the previous question was, or it would be nice to just go back in general to review answers earlier in the survey.

This would be great if we have a back button implemented in Surveys.

We send surveys with 20 to 25 questions and it is getting difficult for the users to go back and change the responses.

+1 on this too, seems like a basic UI/UX requirement for surveys is missing!

Hi all, yes, the back button does make absolute sense. We did ideate this for the current quarter; however, due to other high priority items, this item was not picked up. 

 

Saying that, we are finalizing items for our immediate roadmap (for the next 2 quarterly releases). I will keep the forum posted about any new updates in this regard.

Hi GS team,


Do we have any timeline on when this will be implemented?
I can see this post has been created 6 years ago and I don’t see any update on it.

Any update here?  This is basic survey functionality and our users are surprised that it is not there already like with many other survey tools available.

Hey there - it doesn’t seem like the votes were transferred to the new idea. Could you please look into it? There are 34 votes here that are not reflected into the new one and it would be a shame to lose sight of this one as it seems like a BACK button should have been something available from the get go. Thank you!
