## ☑️ Exclude answer

An exclude answer is an answer that will block the selection of all other answers and un-check any checked answer, in the example above if the respondent checks the "None of the above" answer it will block the selection on all the other answers and un-check them.

There can be only one exclude answer per question and you can set it from the [answer properties](/form-management/form-designer/answers/answer-properties.md) page.
