How Offline Surveys Work

After you’ve successfully created your offline survey, it’s time to add it to your device. Unlike other offline survey apps, there’s no app install necessary – and your respondents will still be able to reply to your surveys offline. Simply enter the link of your questionnaire in your browser to open the survey or quiz. It’s important to open the link with the HTTP prefix instead of the HTTPS prefix. Don’t use Incognito mode to open the survey. Add the icon of the web page of your questionnaire to the home screen. If you work on a desktop or laptop, just open the browser and enter the link. (With the HTTP prefix instead of HTTPS) Learn how you add your offline survey to your home screen on Android or iOS.
After having added the icon to the home screen, start the survey (by tapping on the newly created icon on the home screen) while the device is online. You do not have to complete the survey: just start it from the home screen, go through the first two question and quit immediately after. However, if you have added elements such as video, audio, a Scratch Card, a Slot Machine, … you’ll have to run through the entire survey or quiz in order that all elements are uploaded. For a desktop or a laptop, you run through the survey/quiz.
Now it’s time to turn off the internet on your device. You can do this easily by turning on Airplane Mode. Open the survey or quiz by clicking on the icon you’ve added on your home screen. It is possible that the first time you launch the app offline, the system will show the message ‘Turn Off Airplane Mode or Use Wi-Fi to Access Data’. Just answer ‘OK’ and continue.
Important remark 1: For offline use, it is advised to always launch the mobile app from the home screen button (i.e. not use it offline inside the browser) Important remark 2: It is advised to turn on Airplane Mode to work completely offline. This is a better option than leaving the Wi-Fi/3G/4G on and taking the risk that the device has a poor-quality connection. In the latter case, there is a potential risk for bad performance and/or loss of data collected in offline mode.

3 important tips

Avoid yes or no types of questions, this can lead to making the wrong decisions when taking conclusions from your feedback results. After receiving your results, use the correct benchmarks to determine how to implement change e.g. If you notice 10% of your attendees said they did not eat the lamb roast, maybe it was because 10% was vegetarian and not 10% did not like the roast.
Send out your feedback survey immediately after the event. This way the event will still be fresh in the attendees’ minds, enabling them to give an actionable, detailed report on their experience.
Know your attendee. Ask some demographic questions such as age, gender, nationality etc. This way you’ll know which group of people to market to in the future and which people are less likely to attend your event next time.
