Text field

The Text field lets customers enter short text answers. It’s ideal for names, titles, short responses, and single-line input.


βœ… When to use Text

Use a Text field when:

  • You need a short answer

  • The input fits on one line

  • Customers type freely

Common examples

  • First name / Last name

  • Company name

  • Order number

  • City


βš™οΈ How it works

  • Customers type text into a single input field

  • The value is saved with the submission


🧩 How to add a Text field

  1. In the app > open form editor > click Add element

  2. Select Text

  3. Set the field label

  4. Configure other details of the field

  5. Click Save


Placeholder text

Shows a hint before the user types.

Examples

  • Enter your full name

  • Company name


Default value (optional)

Pre-fills the field when the form loads.

Examples

  • USA

  • Guest

⚠️ Tip: Leave empty if you want users to type their own value.


Prevents form submission until the field is filled.

Examples

  • Name on contact forms

  • Order number on support forms


🌟 Best practices

  • Use clear labels

  • Keep placeholders short

  • Use Text instead of Textarea for short answers
