Let’s cut to it GoHighLevel’s latest update brings full mobile form progress functionality to your surveys and quizzes, and it’s a game-changer for the mobile experience.

Now, when someone fills out a multi-step form on their phone or tablet, they’ll actually see how far they’ve come and how much they’ve got left. No more guessing. No more frustration. Just smooth, visual guidance that keeps them moving.

But this mobile form progress feature isn’t just a line that fills up. It’s responsive, clean, and designed to look great on smaller screens. Whether your form has two steps or ten, mobile users now get the same clarity desktop users have always had.

And here’s the fun part you can fully customize it. Pick your brand colors for both the filled and inactive portions. Adjust the text style for each step label so it looks and feels just like the rest of your funnel. It’s all about giving users that extra polish and professional vibe without touching a line of code.

This new mobile form progress bar works with both “Stick to Card” and “Stick to Page” footer styles, meaning it plays nicely with whatever layout you’re already using.Turning it on is super simple. Just head to Styles > Footer inside your survey or quiz builder, flip the toggle, and boom you’re live.
