Form responders can now save their progress in Google Forms
September 08, 2021
When responding to a Google Form or quiz in Google Forms while signed into your Google account, your progress will automatically be saved as a draft for 30 days from your last edit, or until your submission is complete.
Form owners and editors can disable this feature for responders to a specific form. You may want to disable the feature on forms that are:
- Used for repeated data entry,
- Embedded in websites,
- On certain shared devices, such as registration or information kiosks.
To disable this feature, within Google Forms, go to Settings > Presentation > Restrictions and select “Disable autosave for all respondents”.
