Can I use forms on an iPad?

Question

I create forms for my students in Word. My challenge, is they want to be able to use them on an iPad so they can enter data as the work through a procedure, then download to email. The forms load onto the ipad but they cannot fill out the form ??

Answer 1

Yes, you can use Microsoft Forms on an iPad. Microsoft Forms is optimized for various web browsers, including Safari on iOS devices. This means that your students should be able to access and fill out forms created in Microsoft Forms using their iPads. However, if you are referring to forms created in Word, those may not be compatible with direct data entry on an iPad unless they are converted into a format that supports interactive fields, such as a PDF with fillable fields or using Microsoft Forms directly for data collection.

If your forms are not loading correctly or are not fillable, ensure that you are using the latest version of the browser and that the forms are set up correctly to allow responses from users on mobile devices.
