Follow-Up Mode

Re-engage users who haven't completed the form

Follow-Up Mode re-engages users who haven't completed the form. Choose a stop condition (Dismissed, Partial Submission, or Completed), set how many times to show the form, and optionally add a wait between attempts and a stop-after duration.

Follow-Up Mode - Stop condition and timing

When to use

  • Increase completion rates — Give users another chance if they closed the form without submitting.
  • Recover partial submissions — Re-show the form to users who started but didn't finish.
  • Respect user choice — Use "Completed" as the stop condition so you don't ask again after a successful submission.
  • Control persistence — Limit maximum attempts and add wait times to avoid being intrusive.

Follow-Up Mode - Stop condition options

Configuration

Stop Condition — Choose when to stop following up: Dismissed, Partial Submission, or Completed.

Maximum Attempts — How many times to show the form to each user (e.g. 3). After this, no more follow-ups.

Wait Between Attempts — Optional. Time to wait before showing the form again (e.g. 24 hours). Helps avoid feeling pushy.

Stop After Duration — Optional. Stop following up after this duration from the first attempt (e.g. 7 days). Even if Maximum Attempts isn't reached, follow-ups stop after this period.

Tips

  • Start with Dismissed — Re-engage users who closed the form; they may have been interrupted or distracted.
  • Use Partial Save — Enable Partial Save so users can resume where they left off when the form reappears.
  • Set reasonable limits — 2–3 attempts with 24–48 hours between often works well. More can feel spammy.
  • Combine with RecurrenceRecurrence Settings control the overall cadence; Follow-Up Mode handles the re-engagement logic.
