Mobile Editor for Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes in Sparkforge

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

The Mobile Editor in Sparkforge lets you customize how forms, surveys, and quizzes look on mobile without changing the desktop layout. Fonts, images, padding, and layout are device-scoped.

The Mobile Editor in the Forms, Surveys, and Quizzes builder lets you style mobile separately from desktop. Upload mobile-only images, adjust font family, size, and weight per element, and set true zero padding for tight mobile layouts.

What the Mobile Editor does

It gives forms, surveys, and quizzes their own mobile styling layer. Desktop styles stay untouched when you edit on mobile, and vice versa.

Per-device controls

  • Mobile-specific header and background images.
  • Independent font family, font size, and font weight.
  • Style controls for Labels, Short Labels, and Placeholders.
  • Background color, padding, and border scoped to the device.
  • True 0px top and bottom padding on mobile without affecting desktop.

How to use it

  1. Open any form, survey, or quiz from the builder dashboard.
  2. Click the device toggle at the top to switch to Mobile View.
  3. In the right panel, configure mobile-only settings: layout style, header image, background image, and font settings.
  4. Adjust fonts individually for Labels, Short Labels, and Placeholder Text.
  5. Click Save, then Preview to test the mobile design.
  6. Publish when the mobile experience is dialed in.

Content vs. style on mobile

Content and presentation are handled separately:

  • Content — you can use different copy on mobile.
  • Style — spacing, borders, and typography are device-scoped.
  • Reset / Copy from Desktop — when available, speeds up setup.

Why mobile-specific images matter

Mobile users hold phones vertically. Tight, portrait-oriented images perform better than scaled-down desktop images. Mobile-specific uploads prevent the cropping and distortion that hits when desktop images are resized for small screens.

Mobile font styling

Text that's comfortable on desktop often feels cramped or oversized on a phone. Adjust per element:

  • Labels — guide users to fill fields properly.
  • Short Labels — for condensed or multi-column layouts.
  • Placeholders — subtle input cues.
