You will find this “+” icon on the right side of your screen. Click on it.
The dropdown menu provides various question types; for signatures, “Short Answer” is the most appropriate.
By labeling it “Signature,” respondents will understand that this is where they should provide their digital signature.
To do this, activate the “Required” slider or toggle option. This step ensures that the form cannot be submitted unless the signature section is filled out.
If a typed name isn't sufficient and you prefer a handwritten signature, access the add-ons by clicking the three dots (often labeled “More”) in the top right corner.
Search for “Signature” in the Add-ons store.
Go for popular choices or any add-on of your choice and follow the given setup instructions.
By clicking on the eye-shaped preview icon at the top, you can see how respondents will view the form.
Distribute your form to your intended audience by selecting the “Send” button.
There you have it! With these steps, anyone can easily add a signature prompt to their Google Form. Remember, a typed name can act as a digital signature, but if you need actual handwritten signatures, using an add-on will be necessary.
