Edit the time limit of respondent replies

If you continue the conversation with a respondent after their initial response to your videoask, it can often turn into a flowing, asynchronous chat of back-and-forth replies.

When you reply to a respondent after they’ve submitted their initial response to a videoask, they can reply back to you with a video, audio, or text message. By default, they’ll have a 5-minute limit to record a video or audio message. However, if you want to reduce the time limit to encourage more succinct replies from your respondents, just follow the steps below or watch this tutorial. ā¤µļø

Looking to change the time limit on initial responses to a videoask step? Check out this article on how to control the length of video or audio answers.

Note: If a respondent uploads a video from outside of VideoAsk when submitting a reply, the maximum file size they can upload is 500MB. The time limit of the video would be restricted to what is set under Settings.
