How to Restore Deleted Forms in Jotform Mobile Forms

March 9, 2026

Accidentally deleting a form can happen, but Jotform makes it easy to recover it. In the Jotform Mobile Forms App, deleted forms are moved to the Trash folder, where you can restore them if needed.

Restoring a deleted form allows you to bring it back to your form list so you can continue editing it or collecting submissions.

Note

Deleted forms remain in the Trash folder for 30 days before they are permanently removed. Once a form is permanently deleted from Trash, it can’t be restored.

If a form is deleted from your Jotform account, it will be moved to the Trash folder. You can restore it from the Trash in the Jotform Mobile Forms app in just a few steps. Here’s how:

  1. In the Jotform Mobile App, tap the Three Lines icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
