ChangelogCopy Anchor Link

1.9.1 - 2026-10-22Copy Anchor Link

AddedCopy Anchor Link

• Copy a form: Use "Make a copy" in the form menu (grid and list views) to duplicate a form with its design, fields, addons, settings and integrations. Responses, files and Stripe payment mapping are not copied. Also available to AI agents as the duplicate_form tool.

ChangedCopy Anchor Link

• Save menu: "Save as Template" now lives in a dropdown next to "Save changes" in the customizer.

1.9.0 - 2026-10-17Copy Anchor Link

ChangedCopy Anchor Link

• Groundwork for an upcoming feature. No visible changes yet.

1.8.11 - 2026-10-16Copy Anchor Link

FixedCopy Anchor Link

• No more submitting while files upload: Visitors can no longer submit a form while a file or signature is still uploading. They see "Please wait until the upload finishes." and can submit once it completes. Before, the response could be sent without the file.
• One failed file no longer drops the rest: When several files are dropped at once and one fails, the files that uploaded are kept, and the error names the file that failed.
• Signature redraw and clear: Clearing or redrawing a signature while an earlier version was still uploading could save the old signature. Only the latest signature is kept now.
• Upload size limit fallback: If the server size limit isn't configured, uploads up to 100 MB are allowed (it was 10 MB), matching the largest size a field can be set to.

1.8.10 - 2026-10-16Copy Anchor Link

FixedCopy Anchor Link

• Large file uploads: Files over 10 MB were rejected with "Failed to initialize upload", even when the form allows up to 100 MB. Uploads now work up to the limit set on the field (100 MB maximum).
• Uploads of files with no browser type: Some browsers, especially Chrome and Edge on Windows, give no file type for formats like .heic, .dcm, .stl, or .rar. These uploads always failed; the type is now worked out from the file extension.
• Answer validation on optional questions: Google Forms response validation (for example "must be an email" or "must be a number") now also applies to optional questions when they are answered. Email, URL, and "is a number" rules now work on all questions, and values like 12abc no longer pass number checks. Before, Google could silently reject these responses.
• Re-fetch keeps addons: Re-fetch in the dashboard no longer removes file upload, location, scanner, and other addons from your fields. It keeps them the same way the MCP sync_google_form tool does.
• Re-fetch for forms without a description: Re-fetch no longer fails for Google Forms without a description. If the Google Form can't be read (for example it is restricted), you now see the reason instead of a generic error.

1.8.9 - 2026-10-15Copy Anchor Link

FixedCopy Anchor Link

• Embedded forms show saved changes immediately: After Save changes, visitors who loaded your page before could still see old styles because their browser reused a cached copy of the form. Embedded forms now check for a newer version on every load, and the CDN tells browsers not to reuse form settings without checking. If nothing changed, the browser still uses its cached copy, so loading stays fast.

1.8.8 - 2026-10-15Copy Anchor Link

FixedCopy Anchor Link

• Google Form header image: The banner image at the top of a Google Form is now imported and shown above the form title. It is saved to our CDN when you create, re-fetch, or sync a form. Existing forms pick it up after Re-fetch (or the MCP sync_google_form tool, which now also returns headerImageUrl).

1.8.7 - 2026-10-13Copy Anchor Link

ChangedCopy Anchor Link

• Dark theme inherits shared styles: A form's dark theme now only overrides colors. Fonts, sizes, radii, spacing, width, columns, and RTL come from the light theme, so both modes always match. In Custom Theme → Theme preview → Dark, only color settings are shown. Ask AI, MCP customize_google_form, and save_theme_to_template follow the same rule: non-color dark values are applied to the shared light theme.

Web app update - 2026-10-13Copy Anchor Link

AddedCopy Anchor Link

• Dark theme: The website, docs, and dashboard now support dark mode. Pick Light, System, or Dark from the theme switcher in the footer or under Dashboard → Settings → Theme; it follows your OS setting by default and remembers your choice in this browser only. Public form pages (/form/...) stay light, and embedded forms keep their own theme.

ChangedCopy Anchor Link

• Pricing page redesign: /pricing now has plan overview cards and a grouped, side-by-side plan comparison with a "Show differences only" filter, plus an updated billing FAQ.
• Usage & plans dashboard: Upgrade or switch billing period from plan cards at the top, with the same comparison table below and your current plan highlighted.
• Webhooks now require Starter or higher: Creating new webhook integrations (UI, API, Ask AI and MCP) requires a Starter or Pro plan. Existing webhooks on the Hobby plan keep working.

1.8.6 - 2026-10-12Copy Anchor Link

AddedCopy Anchor Link

• Vue Integration: New official @customgform-lib/vue-customgform Vue 3 component with standard, popup, and popover support. See the Vue Quickstart.
• Vue embed snippets: Share → Embed → Vue now generates a ready-to-paste Vue single-file component (replacing the "coming soon" placeholder), including prefilled and hidden fields.
• AI & MCP Tool Parity: get_form_share_instructions returns a vueSnippet and accepts format: 'vue'; the Ask AI share card shows a Vue tab.

1.8.5 - 2026-10-10Copy Anchor Link

AddedCopy Anchor Link

• Quiz Progress Bar Colors: Configure the countdown progress track, normal fill, warning fill, and expired fill colors from Custom Theme → Form settings. AI and MCP customization supports the same theme keys.

FixedCopy Anchor Link

• Timer auto-submit rejected by Google (HTTP 400): Unanswered questions were sent as the text null, which Google Forms rejects as an invalid option. Unanswered fields are now omitted, so auto-submitted forms with skipped questions are recorded.
• Timer re-submitting after completion: Timer, anti-cheat, and draft state are now cleared after a successful submission, so revisiting an expired quiz no longer auto-submits an empty response.
• Auto-submit on multi-page forms: Timer auto-submit now sends only the visited sections and pageHistory for branching forms, and finalizes uploaded files so they are not purged.
• Timer clock accuracy: Timers started before server time sync are rebased onto server time, and /api/time now supports cross-origin embeds (CORS).

SecurityCopy Anchor Link

• Consent rules rendering: Timer rules and instructions are rendered through a strict allowlist sanitizer (safe tags, http/https/mailto links only).

1.8.1 - 2026-10-10Copy Anchor Link

AddedCopy Anchor Link

• Form Countdown Timers & Proctoring Suite: Add tamper-resistant countdown timers to any Google Form with auto-submission, warning pulse states, and mobile pinned displays.
• Dynamic On-Demand Asset Loading: Forms without timers incur 0 KB extra JavaScript overhead. The timer module (/addons/timer.js) is loaded asynchronously on-demand only when enabled.
• Anti-Cheating Suite: Block question text selection (user-select: none), disable right-click context menus and clipboard copy (Ctrl+C, Cmd+C), prevent text pasting into answers, and track tab switching with strike limits and auto-submission enforcement.
• Tamper-Proof Time Synchronization: Server clock synchronization (/api/time) protects against client operating system clock tampering; monotonic delta and scoped storage prevent page refresh exploits and inactive tab throttling.
• Hidden Audit Trail: Injects server-verifiable audit timestamps and metrics (timeStarted, timeSubmitted, durationSeconds, tabSwitchesCount, timeAwaySeconds, isAutoSubmitted) into form submission metadata.
• AI & MCP Tool Parity: Full configuration support in customize_google_form tool (timerEnabled, timerDurationMinutes, timerWarningThresholdMinutes, timerAutoSubmit, timerDisableCopyPaste, timerTrackTabSwitches, timerMaxTabSwitches, timerPreventPaste, timerRecordAuditFields). Available on Starter and Pro plans.
• Docs & SEO Guides: New How to Add a Timer to Google Forms guide and Timers & Proctoring feature documentation.

1.8.0 - 2026-10-10Copy Anchor Link

AddedCopy Anchor Link

• Barcode Scanner Addon: Turn any Short Answer question into a camera barcode scanner (Code 128, Code 39, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, ITF). The decoded value is written straight into the Google Form answer and your connected Google Sheet.
• QR Code Scanner Addon: Scan QR codes with the respondent's phone camera, with no third-party app and no iframe.
• Fallbacks & Feedback: Manual typing when the camera is denied, blocked, or the code is unreadable, optional "Scan from a photo", beep and vibration feedback, and an optional auto-submit on successful scan for rapid check-ins.
• On-Demand Addon Asset Loading: Heavy addon assets (Barcode/QR scanner engine and E-Signature Pad) are dynamically loaded only when a respondent opens a form containing those fields. Forms without these addons download zero extra JavaScript, and browsers with a native BarcodeDetector need no scanner download at all.
• AI & MCP Tool Parity: Attach, configure, or remove both scanners through configure_field_addon (addonType: 'barcode' | 'qr-code', scannerConfig). Available on Starter and Pro plans.
• Docs: New QR code scanner and Barcode scanner feature pages and two how-to guides.
