Form Approvals
Form Approvals converts Google Forms submissions into approval workflows.
What Form Approvals is
Form Approvals converts Google Forms submissions into approval workflows. It supports sequential or parallel review, conditional routing, dynamic recipients, roles and quorum approvals. Its AI workflow builder can create form fields, question types and routing based on a natural-language description. Approvers can respond with one-click email approvals, and notifications can use personalized templates with attachments. Approval records are written to the spreadsheet linked to a form, where submission data also remains; configuration and metadata are stored in Google Cloud Firestore in the United States. The free plan allows 20 responses per month and one admin user. Individual costs $96 a year for up to 100 monthly responses, while Team costs $600 a year for up to 1,000. When a plan reaches its monthly response allowance, the add-on deactivates; paid-plan forms stop accepting responses until the next cycle or an additional allowance is purchased.
Good
- Supports parallel and sequential approvals.
- AI can generate fields and routing from descriptions.
- Approval records go to the linked Google Sheet.
- Team includes automatic reminders and recipient authentication.
Watch out
- Free plan is limited to 20 responses monthly.
- Paid-plan forms halt responses at the monthly allowance.
- Service metadata is stored in the United States.
Who it suits
Form Approvals suits people who collect information with Google Forms and need review routed among approvers. Teams needing shared administration, recipient tracking or automatic reminders may find the Team plan relevant.
Verdict
Form Approvals adds configurable review flows to Google Forms, including routing choices and email-based approvals. Keep the monthly response cap in mind, since reaching it deactivates the add-on and stops paid-plan forms from taking responses until the next cycle or more allowance is bought.
