Use of Drop down list within Office Forms
Can we have the option of a drop down menu within Office Forms. This is available within Google Forms and is a very nice feature.

(2019 update) - It is available now. All you need to do is to add more than 6 options in the answers, and then click on "dropdown list".

I actually can't use it without dropdowns which means inconsistent branding and appearance for our work which is frustrating to say the least. Please add this in, otherwise I will have to discontinue using MS Forms

I can't believe it's 2019 and Microsoft forms has no drop down button. Such a shame.

Really? After 3 years for this basic functionality. You want companies to leverage this platform, but the basics are still missing.

you are missing some obvious features. MS Form is no good. We're asking for such simple features here. You shouldn't even offer Forms at all if this is going to be this poorly designed.

This needs implementing on mobile to make it consistent with desktop

As mentioned in the previous post, selections in the drop down lists do not populate the excel sheet. Without this functionality it does make drop downs pretty useless with a spreadsheet. Would there happen to be a fix in the works to resolve this?

The drop down list in forms does not populate the results to the excel sheet. This makes the form useless for compiling data as you have to check each individual submission for the data required in that field.

This option should be available in mobile view.

Is there a way to alphabetize your drop down menu? I tried copying and pasting an alphabetized list into the drop down menu, but unfortunately that did not work.

It is only possible to use "drop down list" if its viewed on a desktop computer. If you view form as an end user on a mobile phone, it is not shown as a drop down.
We need it to work on mobile phones as well. -

Kelly Eleftheriou is correct. 1) Add a "Choice" question. 2) Click the ellipsis (...) in the lower right. 3) Select "dropdown."

I've been working with Form but I don't know when exactly the added this option but while creating the list, on the right hand of required you can open the menu and it gives you the drop down option.
