Meaning, It will not be fair as he will come to know the possible answer of that question. So, it is recommended to keep the Hide Autofill feature ON.
Limit Text
Limit Text is the Maximum Character count the user can enter in the Answer field.
For Example, You want the user to enter his/her full name. So in this case you can keep the Limit Text as “50” or “100” as someone’s full name cannot exceed 100 characters.
Limit Multiple Choice
