List vs. Wizard Forms in FeatureOS

When creating forms in FeatureOS, you can choose between two types of layouts: List and Wizard. Each type offers a unique way of presenting questions to respondents and is suited for different use cases.

📋 List Form

In a List Form, all questions appear on a single page. Respondents can see the entire form at once and answer questions in any order before submitting.

Key Benefits:

• Fast and straightforward for short forms.

• Best when the number of questions is small and context is simple.

• Respondents can review and edit their answers easily before submission.

Ideal Use Cases:

• Quick polls (e.g., “Which feature do you use most?”).

• Short product satisfaction surveys.

• Gathering feedback that doesn’t require detailed navigation or logic.

🧭 Wizard Form

In a Wizard Form, questions are shown one step at a time. Respondents navigate through the form sequentially, with the option to apply Navigation Rules that branch or skip questions based on previous responses.

Key Benefits:

• Makes long forms feel less overwhelming by breaking them into steps.

• Allows advanced logic with Navigation Rules, showing only relevant questions.

• Improves clarity by keeping respondents focused on one question at a time.

Ideal Use Cases:

• Customer satisfaction surveys with conditional paths.

• Onboarding or qualification surveys where context matters.

• Product research where detailed branching logic improves data quality.

⚖️ Quick Comparison

✅ Which One Should You Choose?

• If you’re running short, straightforward surveys, go with List Form for speed and simplicity.

• If you need adaptive, personalized surveys with branching logic, use the Wizard Form.

Both types are fully integrated into your FeatureOS feedback system, so responses seamlessly connect with your boards, roadmaps, and changelogs.
