  1. Allow students to change (delete and resubmit) their answers in open-ended polls

    Currently, for multiple choice or clickable image polls, students can clear their response and re-submit. We would like to be able to do that with open-ended (specifically Word Cloud) types. The idea is that as participants change their answers, the cloud would morph as some responses shrink and others grow with the changes to the audience's understanding.

  2. Alt Text

    This actually is an accessibility issue... Not sure if I'm missing something but it doesn't appear that I enter alt-text for images?

    Thanks for the video. We do have a way to add alt-text to uploaded images, but it needs to first be enabled. We do not have it on by default. Here’s how to get it:

    1. click the Gear icon on the top left of the page and select Settings
    2. select the Features lab tab on the left of settings. This will take you to polleverywhere.com/labs
    3. then click the checkbox for Image Alt-Text and save your change

    Now, when you go to create or edit a poll question that has an image → you should be able to enter alt-text for the image. This will be read by screenreaders.

  3. Emojis

    It would be fun to be able to use emojis to answer polls. So instead of using "one word" for the word cloud feature, using "one emoji." I think with the increased usage of cell phones, employees use emjois often to describe how they are feeling and can make for a fun time.

  4. Nested groups of polls

    I hear this is in the works, but being able to have groups of polls INSIDE other group would make managing hundreds of polls much easier to navigate and deal with. THANKS!!

  6. Ability to have multiple polls active

    We have used Poll Everywhere to run polls using a distributed audience in multiple countries. It would be incredibly useful to have multiple active polls going at the same time. For example, it would be great to have an open ended poll open so our global audience can ask questions, at the same having a word cloud poll to gauge the audience sentiment, and a multiple choice poll to see how they are reacting to certain topics and finally a up/down vote poll to see how they are responding to the presentation of the conference. This is a must have…

  9. Option to show real-time poll results on audience devices after a web poll vote is placed

    After a web poll link is used, show the voter the real time results and keep refreshing the page like a gamecast app/page does, so the voter can see the real-time results of the poll they just participated in.

  10. show total votes with percentage view

    Offer the ability to show percentages, but also include somewhere on the slide, the 'total # of votes', so that presenter can judge as to how much to continue to push the audience to vote.

  11. Add A Live Updating Leaderboard for Team Competitions

    The current segmentation feature doesn't allow me to view a live visual of which team is in the lead. It would be nice if there was a live view that could be embedded into PowerPoint.

  12. Account Delegation for Poll Execution

    We often have classes that utilize multiple professors. They would like to be able to share polls, powerpoint slide decks, and class data more easily for a single class. Account delegation for at least poll execution rights would probably be able to solve this use-case completely.

  13. Can we change the colour of the Total Results?

    1. Can we change the colour of the Total Responses? Currently, it is black by default and cannot change so it is difficult to see on projector when the background is dark.

    You can change the text color for Total Results. That is controlled by the “Primary text color” option in our visual settings menu. To change it:

    1. open the visual settings menu
    2. expand the Color Scheme menu
    3. change the Primary Text Color to something with enough contrast for the background.

    That Color Scheme section controls just about every color on the chart and it should get you what you need.

  14. Change colour of word cloud

    For word cloud with dark background, any way to change also the text colour? It’s difficult to see dark texts against dark background.

  15. Proposed Report Format

    Is it possible to provide a report format where 1) each row is a unique respondent with 2) the "poll title" as a column heading and 3) the corresponding "response" is in the same column as the poll title?

    The “Participant Response History” report should have what you are looking for. However, we display it somewhat differently on the website. If you download/export that report to CSV (Excel) that will have the information in that order.

    The CSV export for the Gradebook report is also in a similar format.

    Hope this helps!

  16. Sort polls by response date.

    After using PE a few years, I have lots of polls (quizzes) accumulated, and I pluck out a subset to use each year. Things get rather difficult to organize come end of the term as I have to sift through all the quiz polls to see which ones I gave. Sorting polls by latest response time would solve this issue.

    We do have a way to sort by date, however it is a Labs feature and not on by default. Here’s how you can get it:

    1. log into your account
    2. click the gear icon to the top right and select My Settings
    3. on the left side, click the tab for Features lab
    4. enable the Sort Order feature

    When you next go to your My Polls page you should be able to change the default sort order for your polls.

  17. delayed response

    Is there a way to delay showing the results of a live poll so as not to influence the audiences answer? Maybe a 10 second delay or a "display answers" button?

  18. Found a bug in Q&A counting

    I posted a test "answer" and upvoted it to +1. I went on another account (where it already showed +1) and downvoted it. Instead of correctly going to 0, it went to -1.

    The same bug exists going up from -1 towards 0/1.

    Please fix this. Thanks!

  19. Hiding/Showing results when using PollEV Presenter

    I use PollEV Presenter and I love it. It would be incredibly helpful to be able to hide or show poll results from within the presentation software (i.e., Keynote, Powerpoint or Google Slides) without having to go into the PollEverywhere site to turn the 'eye' off or on.

    You can actually do this right now from the PollEv presenter. It’s a little hidden though.

    When you are in full screen presentation mode and displaying one of our polls, if you hover your mouse over the right side of the screen → you should see several grey control icons appear. One of those will be the Show/Hide ‘eye’ icon. You can toggle it there.

    We just hide those buttons (unless you mouse over them) to keep the display prettier
