The Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Pie Chart on Google Forms

If you want something more polished, when it comes to Survey's representation, you can use Google Sheets to make graphs and charts with the data from Google Forms that appear more polished. With Google Forms, you can receive a summary of the responses in the form of easy-to-copy graphs and charts; however, if you want something a little more polished, you can use Google Forms.

Is it possible to create pie charts with Google Forms?

Google Forms allows users to create their own questions and conduct online surveys, this capability has been available to users for quite some time. The forms may be used to carry out online surveys on any scale, from tiny to huge, and they provide respondents the maximum degree of leeway possible in terms of how they submit their responses.

Despite having a pre-built summary option that transforms the results into clear charts and graphs, Google Forms is still behind in terms of customizations. This is the case even if the option is there. Users are not allowed to make any changes to the titles or subtitles of the graphs, nor can they choose which sort of graph to view.

Creating bespoke charts with the data collected from Google Forms can be accomplished through the usage of Google Sheets. Because Google Sheets and Google Forms are integrated, Google Sheets is able to natively export the data from Google Forms and can be used to generate a range of graphs and charts that can be modified in a variety of different ways. This is made possible by the integration between the two products.
