Release Apr 15, 2026: RTL Layout, Location Detection & Prefill
This update focuses on internationalization, respondent data quality, and personalized form embedding.
1. Right-to-Left (RTL) Layout Support
While Google Forms allows typing right-to-left languages, the layout structure remains locked in left-to-right alignment. CustomGForm v1.2.0 introduces one-click RTL mirroring:
- Mirrored Form Structure: Reverses radio buttons, checkboxes, input alignments, and multi-step pagination controls.
- Native Experience: Designed specifically for Arabic, Hebrew, Persian (Farsi), Urdu, and Yiddish speakers.
- Data Integrity: Visual inversion only; response data submits cleanly to standard Google Sheets columns.
2. Location Detection Addon
Stop relying on respondents to manually type error-prone country and city names:
- IP-Based Auto-Detection: Automatically resolves country, region, city, and timezone client-side the moment the form opens.
- Respondent Editable: Values pre-fill standard Short Answer or Paragraph fields so respondents can review or adjust them before submitting.
- GDPR Compliant: Privacy-respecting geographic resolution with zero device GPS prompts.
3. Dynamic Prefill & Hidden Field Query Parameters
- Populate form fields automatically via
?prefill=FIELD_ID=VALUEURL query parameters or embed snippet attributes. - Pass silent UTM tracking codes and campaign IDs via
?hidden=FIELD_ID.
