Great App and great first few hours in my journey
TLDR : Great easy to use form builder and data collector.
I started using the app and for the first few hours, it is going great. I plan to use this app for both instructional purposes (students filling out worksheets) as well as a research tool. This morning, I started the Student Worksheets, but research forms will be similar as well.
1) Pretty easy to use and smooth drag and drop.
2) Quite a few choices of elements to drag and drop - forms, design elements etc...
3) When I test out the links (of the forms that the students will fill out) they look good!
4) I have yet to run it live so we will see, but from my test run it works well enough.
5) The PDF export is great. Is there a way to disable the link (file location info at the bottom right hand corner)
Overall I had an easy time learning and getting things done and managed to finish the first worksheet in a short time. I mostly spent time trying to get the look right. Once that is done, I just need to clone and repeat for the rest of my worksheets.
Nits (Just some personal observations, YMMV)
1) Selecting different elements are some times a bit tricky for when there are several layers of text, image etc... so click around.
2) I tried using an image in the background and while it allows for me to crop, it looks very zoomed in. So when I try to have the whole image show up, I cannot. Maybe a 'fit' command would help?
3) I really really really like to customize the look of my forms and while there are more than few Font, Color (You can select from a color chart/wheel or enter code). Ability to upload own fonts or provide a bigger list of Google Fonts.
4) I wanted to place my business logo - a bit unobtrusively - like in a PowerPoint/Keynote at the left bottom corner say. I cannot figure how to do that. It just shows up in the middle. Again I may need to mess around with it.
5) Last nit is that all the elements to make great forms are there - if only it were a bit more Canva-like in handling the UX. This is by no means a criticism as I can pretty much do what I need to do, just a small thing to ease my journey.
Great work!

There's an icon visible now for helping users to more easily select the "parent" item when there's nested components. When adding the logo one options is you can add a structural block, e.g. 3 column, and put the logo in the first column.
Hope that helps,
