View your first responses
Learn how to view, analyze, and manage form responses in Mokaform's dashboard and analytics.
Congratulations! People are responding to your form. We'll show you how to view, analyze, and act on the data.
1. Access your responses
Navigate to your workspace dashboard.
Find your form in the forms list.
Look for the Responses column.
Click the response number (e.g., "2", "15", "47").
Alternative: click your form name to open the builder, then go to the Submissions tab.
What the numbers mean:
- "0" — no completed responses yet
- Number — total completed responses (clickable)
- Completion % — how many people who started also finished
A completion rate above 80% is excellent. Below 60% suggests your form may be too long or confusing.
2. View individual submissions
What you'll see:
- Complete answers for every field
- Submission timestamp and completion time
- Device information (mobile, tablet, desktop)
- IP location (if enabled)
Organization tools:
- Chronological order — newest first by default
- Sortable columns — sort by any field or timestamp
- Search — find specific responses quickly
- Filters — show only responses meeting certain criteria
Check response quality
Look for:
- ✅ Complete responses with all required questions answered
- ✅ Thoughtful, detailed answers
- ✅ Valid contact information
- ⚠️ Spam or fake responses
- ⚠️ Duplicate submissions
- ⚠️ Nonsensical text in open fields
If you notice spam, add a CAPTCHA or require email verification in your form settings.
3. Export your data
| Format | Best For | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| CSV | Excel or Google Sheets | All responses, timestamps |

Go to the Submissions tab and click Export.

Click Download.
Export to CSV for the most flexibility in analyzing your data.
4. Analyze your data
Response patterns:
- Total submission count
- Completion rate (started vs. finished)
- Average completion time
- Device breakdown (mobile vs. desktop)
Question insights:
- Most popular choices in multiple-choice
- Average ratings in scale questions
- Common themes in open-ended responses
- Questions with high skip rates
Geographic and timing:
- Where responses come from
- When people respond most
- Response velocity (how quickly they come in)
Even with few responses, look for common themes in open-ended answers, popular choices, rating patterns, and demographic patterns.
