Date & Time

Date, time, both, or a date/time range.

On this page (6 sections)

Collects a date, a time, both together, or a start-and-end date range — one question type that covers every calendar/clock scenario via a single interface switch.


What respondents see#

A modernized date/time picker that works consistently across desktop, tablet, and mobile. Respondents can tab into the field and type a value directly, or open the calendar/clock popover to click. The picker respects the survey's base language for month and weekday names. What exactly they interact with depends on your chosen interface mode below.

When to use it#

  • Appointment or event dates.
  • Birth dates for age-based logic.
  • A start/end window (e.g., "when did your subscription run?").
  • Any field where a calendar or clock is easier and more consistent than free-form text.

Configuring it in the builder#

Open SettingsDate & time interface and pick one of four modes:

Logic support#

Date/time questions have their own condition operators for comparing against a fixed date/time or a range:
