Manage data entry with Text field character limits

There are a variety of features that can be used to elevate the quality and completeness of your Text fields. With the Character Limit feature, you can easily improve employment applications, homework assignments, and customer surveys.

Applying a Character Limit to your Text fields enables form designers to control the amount of information incoming from specific fields. For example, if a Character Limit were placed on a Text field used for a homework assignment’s written response section, the teacher who designed the form could limit their students’ responses to 500 characters.

Applying Character Limits to your Text fields

Adding Character Limits to your Text fields is simple. To get started, log in to your GoFormz account from a computer and open the form you wish to edit in the Template Editor. Next, select the Text field you wish to modify and locate the Properties panel. Within the Properties panel you will see the ‘Character Limit’ feature – simply add your desired character limit and click ‘Save’!
