About Image Choice Questions
A picture speaks 1.000 words because a complex idea can be conveyed with a single image. It's, therefore, no wonder that Image Choice questions lead to respondents being more engaged and giving more accurate answers. Also, Image Choice questions can add style to your design!
Image Choice questions support the following file types:
- GIF
- JPG
- PNG
- SVG
