Set multiple-choice response colors

Learn how to set multiple-choice response colors for custom response sets via the web app and the mobile app.

Why set multiple-choice response colors?

Customizing colors for multiple-choice responses helps clearly differentiate between response options, making it easier for users to navigate and select their answers during an inspection. By setting these response colors, you can present options more clearly and make reports more visually distinct.

Published changes made to templates only apply to new inspections moving forward.

You can use custom colors by entering the color hex code in the text field when selecting the color of the multiple-choice response.
