    Hello! If some-one fills in my survey, but half way decided he needs more time, can he then get back to the survey and finish his entry? Of go back the next day and modify his answers?

    I think this has something to to with sending an unique link???

    Groetjes/regards,

    Trudy

    JotForm has different ways to allow users to start filling a form and continue on a later date, this without generating the submission. 

    - The first one os the Auto-fill feature that will save the data on the browser's cache, this will require the user to continue the form using the same browser and device each time. 

    More details can be found here: https://www.jotform.com/help/227-How-to-Enable-Auto-Fill-on-Forms 

    - The second method uses a session and provides your users with a custom link so they can continue filling the form from any device or browser. 

    Please find more details about it here: https://www.jotform.com/help/97-How-to-Save-Forms-and-Continue-Later 

    You may also provide the user with the edit link of his submission so he can edit it at any time, here is a guide with more details about it: https://www.jotform.com/help/40-How-to-Let-Users-Update-Their-Form-Submissions-at-a-Later-Date 

    I hope this helps.
