How to Get the Most Out of Your Form Filling Extension
Expert tips and best practices for using Fyllyo's Chrome extension to maximize your productivity and avoid common pitfalls.
You've installed Fyllyo and filled a few forms, but are you really getting the most out of it? This guide reveals pro tips, hidden features, and optimization strategies that power users swear by.
Setting Up for Success
The difference between a good experience and a great one often comes down to initial setup. Here's how to configure Fyllyo for maximum efficiency:
Complete Your Profile
Spend 10 minutes adding documents and information to your profile. The more complete it is, the more forms Fyllyo can auto-fill. You can also manually fill in the fields that are not part of your documents.
Create multiple collections.
Set up different collections for work, personal, and travel. For your mother, daughter, wife, etc. Switch between them based on the context of your form.
Advanced Features You're Probably Missing
1. Custom end to end flows
To automate multi-page forms, you dont want to keep clicking "next" button. Instead, you want a custom end to end flow that does it all for you. Fyllyo provides pre-built workflows for common forms like DS-160 (more coming soon). Use custom flow when available. Custom flows are more accurate, donot use AI credits and would fill out a form end to end.
Custom flows like DS-160 appear at the bottom of the Fyllyo extension when available for your form
2. Conditional Logic
Fyllyo can handle complex forms with conditional fields. For example, if you select "Married" for marital status, it automatically knows to fill spouse information. Make sure your profile includes all possible scenarios.
3. Unresolved fields
Fyllyo shows you fields it could not resolve because it does not have that information or its ambiguous. You can chat with fyllyo to resolve the fields.

Each country wants the same information formatted differently.

Some documents are in different languages. It takes hours every single time.
