Forms for Google Docs

What it does

This app acts as a supercharged mobile client for Google Forms. It allows users to create, edit, and manage their forms on the go, but its real power comes from a suite of advanced features not available in the standard Google Forms interface. These include AI-powered form generation from text prompts or files, response scheduling, enhanced analytics, and various export options.

Where it shines

The app excels at leveraging AI to streamline form creation. The 'Create with AI' flow (01:13) is a standout feature. It goes beyond simple text prompts by allowing users to upload a PDF or text document (02:15), which the app then analyzes to generate relevant questions. This turns a tedious copy-and-paste task into an automated process. Additionally, the detailed form editor provides granular control, allowing users to add images to specific multiple-choice options (03:16) and reorder items with a simple drag-and-drop interface (03:34).

UX highlights

AI Form Assistant: At 01:14, the app introduces its AI assistant for creating forms from a topic, which is a powerful entry point for new users.
Contextual Permissions: The app requests permissions progressively. General Google Drive access is requested at sign-in (00:57), but more specific script permissions are only asked for when enabling advanced features like the 'Response scheduler' (06:17).
Rich Form Editing: The editor is surprisingly robust for a mobile interface. It supports various question types (02:39), allows adding images to individual answers (03:16), and includes options for making questions required or adding conditional logic.
File Management: The app includes a simple but effective file management system. Users can create folders (11:10), move forms (09:40), and duplicate existing forms (10:41) with ease.
Multiple Export Options: The app provides multiple ways to get data out, including generating an enhanced analytics link (07:33) and exporting form data as a .zip file (10:58).

Monetization & growth

The app uses a subscription model gated by a soft paywall presented after the initial onboarding carousel. At 00:24, it shows yearly and weekly plans, but a clever 'Enable Free Trial' toggle (00:27) dynamically replaces the weekly plan with a 3-day free trial. This design segments users by their intent to pay versus their desire to try first. Premium features like AI file import and response scheduling are clearly marked with a crown icon, reinforcing the value of the subscription throughout the app.

Who it’s for

This app is designed for power users of Google Forms, such as educators, researchers, event organizers, and small business owners. Anyone who needs to create detailed surveys, quizzes, or feedback forms on the move and wants more functionality than the standard web interface provides would find it useful. The AI features, in particular, cater to users looking to save time on form creation.

Notes & opportunities

The app is feature-rich, but some of the UI could be streamlined. For example, after an AI form is generated, the user lands in a complex editor that could be overwhelming. A simplified 'review' mode might be a gentler transition. The initial onboarding also requests App Tracking permission without a warm-up screen (00:02), which could be an area for optimization to improve opt-in rates.
