From inquiry to next step

Your form collects.
You take it from here.

For the photographer between shoots, the tutor between lessons, and anyone doing the work and the follow-up.

  1. Start with what you have.

    Sign in with Google and paste your form’s edit link. Bring in its questions and response history. Your form and the link you share stay with Google.

  2. Give each inquiry a next step.

    Record a status, keep a note or set a reminder. Add inquiries from calls, DMs and conversations to the same inbox. Tap to open your own mail or phone app.

  3. See the work you’ve recorded.

    Read submission trends and follow-up reports. Tap a metric to see the inquiries behind it. Contact and booking dates reflect the actions you mark yourself.

Why Formbox asks for Google access

Google sign-in identifies your connected account. When you connect a form, Formbox asks for permission to read its questions and responses so it can display your customer inquiries and reports. Your device connects directly to Google; your form responses are not sent to a Formbox server.

Your notes, statuses, manual inquiries and reminders are stored on this device. Read how Formbox uses and protects your data.

Good questions

A few things
worth knowing.

Small tools should be straightforward. So should the answers about them.

More help & support

Do I need to move off Google Forms?

No. Your form stays with Google, using the same link and respondent experience. Formbox reads its responses and keeps your follow-up work alongside them.

Where does my data live?

The app talks directly to Google. Manual inquiries, notes, statuses and reminders stay on this device, separately for each signed-in Google account. Formbox has no server holding a copy. Export files whenever you want to save or share them. Read the privacy policy.

Does restoring a purchase restore my inquiries?

Restore brings back tool access for your Apple Account. It does not recover local inquiries, notes or reminders from another device. Export copies you need before removing the app; export is not automatic cloud backup.

Does Formbox send messages or change statuses for me?

No. Email and phone actions open your own apps. Opening a composer does not prove a reply was sent, and Formbox changes an inquiry’s status only when you choose to. It never requests access to your Gmail.

How do reminders and reports work?

Responses refresh when you open the app or sync. Follow-up reminders are local notifications when permission and purchase access allow; the app shows when a reminder is in-app only. Reports describe recorded work. Untouched imports show “Follow-ups not tracked yet,” and manual inquiries do not inflate Google submission counts.

What’s included in this release?

Formbox 1.0 includes the inbox, recorded follow-up, manual inquiries, reports, export and example inbox described above. Form creation, reply templates, saved views and new-response notifications are not included yet. Our earlier commitment to free template-based form creation remains in place for when it ships.

Built around your working day.
