To provide some personal touch to your survey, in the Design tab, you can edit your survey by changing its color and theme, adding a progress bar, or customising buttons and messages.

This article will show you how to adjust your survey design. If you need help with creating your first survey, visit our previous guide:


Change survey colors and theme

On the left side of your design tab, you can change the survey colors and themes to brand your survey as your own.

Each survey distribution channel offers different options in terms of survey colors.


Check out individual articles about designing each of our survey types:

❗️If you create an Intercom Messenger survey, colors and themes will automatically be assigned from your Messenger settings.

Enable survey progress bar

Inform your users about the length of your survey by enabling the Progress bar under Create ➡️ Settings ➡️ Survey Experience.

This feature is available for Website or in-product and Email or Shareable link surveys.

💡 You can also upload your logo in the Survey settings ➡️ General tab to easily add it to any of your Email, Website, or Mobile surveys.

❗️Please note, if you have a CTA button or a redirect link on your Thank you page question at the end of your survey - it won't show 100% on the progress bar. That's because the redirect from the Thank you page is the last step of the survey.

Edit the text of the survey buttons and messages

If you are running a survey in a different language, you might want to change the text of your survey buttons and messages. This will allow you to survey your users in your desired language.

You can do this under the Messages of your survey's settings tab:
