Introduction
The Translation Toggle feature helps make your forms easier to understand for viewers who prefer reading questions in a different language.
When enabled, form viewers can translate the question text only while filling out the form. This is useful when your form is shared with people from different regions, teams, customers, students, or applicants who may not all be comfortable with the original form language.
The feature keeps the form structure the same while giving viewers a simple way to understand the questions better and submit their responses with more confidence.
