Progress bar showing progress inaccurately. | XM Community
Skip to main content

I have a survey with 7 blocks and have a branched survey flow. As I progress through the survey, the progress bar moves very slowly and then by the last block it makes a huge jump even though there is just one question in the block. I am not able to understand why this is happening. The progress bar moving so slowly may make people drop out. I have seen answers to other similar question suggesting using JavaScript to manually add the percentage of completion I want to show for a specific question but that will be time consuming for me as I have a long survey. Is there any other solution to this? Or at least do you know why the progress bar is faulty?

It makes a large jump because you are skipping blocks containing many questions with branch logic.
