Preview a form on phone, tablet and desktop
You can see your draft the way a respondent will, at phone, tablet or desktop width, before you publish. You need to be signed in to get the Preview button.
Preview your draft
- Open the form in the editor and click the eye icon named Preview form to open it in Preview mode at desktop width.
- Click Mobile view to see the form in a 390 × 844 px frame, or Tablet view for an 820 × 1180 px frame. Click Desktop view to use the full editor area.
- Try the form's page navigation and required questions. Check show or hide logic too; these work in Preview as they do for respondents.
- Click Back to Editor or the crossed-eye button to leave Preview.
Preview shows your current draft, including changes you haven't saved or published. When you enter Preview, it closes your code editor. It also closes your logic view and customize panel.
What Preview can test
When you submit in Preview, Makeform shows the ending page, but it doesn't store a response or change the response count. You won't get a notification email, and no integration fires.
You can't upload files in Preview. The countdown timer won't work either. If you pick a file, you'll see "Upload disabled in preview mode."
To test a real submission, with uploads, notification emails and integrations, publish your form and fill it in from its live link.
