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…

Clarify costs are in US dollars
Hello,
It doesn't state in both Plans & Pricing page and in Pricing FAQs that cost is US dollars, nor does it show as such in invoice.
My invoice has $79, however my credit card was charged $105.28 for the month. I am assuming the price difference is the conversion of US to AUD dollars, however should state as such both on website and invoice.
Thanks1 voteAlright, this should be out now! Sorry for any confusion earlier. We should now have a disclaimer for “All prices are in USD” listed on the bottom of our plans page, in the Terms of Service section of our payment confirmation page, and on all of our receipts.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

Need a Canadian account exec?
You should hire me as the new account exec. Your app was something I was thinking of using for an ineffective parent participation organization meeting I attended. I can go after the K-12 market :)

Thanks for thinking of us and let us know if there’s anything we can do to help you out. Have a good one!

Keyboard shortcuts for all menu items
I would love it if there were keyboard shortcuts for all the items in the menu including toggle correct answers and clear results (could be dangerous :)) But to toggle the correct answers would be great because in large events we like to have everything as clean as possible without visual interference of the cursor. Thanks.

Default Settings for Profanity Filter
I would like to have a way to configure the profanity filter so that each new question has the default setting of "Censor profanity out of responses." Right now, I have to set that for EACH individual poll I create. I use PollEV in class, usually creating questions on the fly, and it would be nice to have a way to change my default settings for moderation and profanity filter so that each new question is created with my preferences already set.
1 voteSure! We can do that right now actually by setting a Template Poll. You can see some details for how here: https://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/160776-setting-a-template-poll-default-visual-settings
Here’s the way it works:
- First you create or choose a an open ended polls to be your template
- Then set this poll question to have the Profanity Filter and any other settings you would like as your default for all future poll questions on your account
- click Settings on the top right
- scroll down to Poll Settings > click Set and select this poll question to be your Template.All future Open Ended Poll Questions you create will then have this enabled by default.
Hope this helps!

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!!

Full question edit when creating polls
It is frustrating to have a subset of editing options when creating a poll, so that I have to create it, then edit it to refine it. I would like to be able to do all the editing upon creation (grade response, response settings, etc).

Improve word cloud contrast for dark backgrounds
The WordCloud presentation style is very impressive, but when you use black or dark background colors/images most of the words in the cloud are hard to read. It seems only the two largest words use the configurable text foreground colors (secondary and primary). It would be nice if to have at least configurable brightness for colors used by all the other words.

Change output for ranking polls
We love the drag and drop functionality for ranking polls on the participant end. However, the output of the poll results on the screen is not so great. It gets confusing quickly if participants' answers cancel each other out and everything is ranked at the same level. It would be nice if the answers could be listed on the vertical axis and re-organize to reflect the ranking. We've been testing out another polling system, Mentimeter, that has this functionality in their "100 points" questions.
1 voteSure! If I understand, you would like the top ranked choice to be listed at the top of the vertical axis, correct? This way the answer choices will be listed in rank order.
We do have this feature, but we decided not to turn it on by default for ranking polls because some of our customers had complained about how the order kept changing and made it difficult to read.
To get them in rank order on the chart, you will need to enable our Leaderboard feature. Here’s how:
1. click on the paintbrush icon on the top right of the chart to open our visual settings menu
2. in the drop down menu, click on the Bars tab
3. then click the checkbox for LeaderboardYou may then select how many options you’d like to display on the cart. This will list the answer choices in rank order based…

Make entire bar draggable on ranked choice answer
Hello, I used the PollEV.com app for a ranked-choice voting question with 3 answers.
I watched about 10 people try to vote using a first-gen iPad mini device.
Many people tried to drag the questions up/down by tapping and dragging on the answer text. In every case I had to show them to tap on the handle that's on the right side of the answer.
My feedback is to make the entire bar draggable on ranked choice answers, or at least the text of the answer (in addition to the handle).
1 voteHey DJ,
We increased the size of the draggable region about 2x the previous size (actually a bit more). Can you give it a try and let us know how that wen?

Improve reporting for clickable image polls
Results for clickable image polls are currently documented in reports using percentages. The participant's selection is noted as a percentage of the image as a whole.
It would be awesome if the user was able to identify the defined regions of a clickable image poll in a report. This could be done by numbering the regions as they are defined by the user, or by allowing the user to name the regions as they are created. The goal being to make the results of the report more clear by noting the user defined region of the clicked response.
24 votesDone! All new regions on clickable image polls will be assigned a readable name by default (Region 1, Region 2….) Furthermore, you can edit the name of a clickable region on new or existing clickable image polls from the Edit menu. Click the new Pencil icon on the top right of the click region.
You can see the details for how here: https://polleverywhere.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/943315
The basics:
1. Create your Clickable Image Poll or click on the title of an existing one to open it2. Click the Edit button on the bottom right of the page
3. Click somewhere on the image > a small box or “click region” will appear. You may resize this box and drag it to the appropriate place on the image. You can create as many of these regions as you like.
By default, we will name them regions 1, 2, 3….4. Click the pencil icon…

Can you document how to add LaTeX code to an answer?
Hi,
I've just noted that you support LaTeX in answers, which is obviously cool! Unfortunately, I couldn't find any documentation for this feature. Maybe I'm just too stupid :-)
I finally found an example of someone else, which told me that I had to prepend "latex:" for this to work. It would have been good to have found this in the documentation somewhere. It then took me a little bit of experimenting to learn that LaTeX would start straight in math mode. Again, a little bit of documentation would have been nice.
Many thanks,
Steffen

Ability to display hard-coded new lines
Because I use PollEverywhere in my programming course, it is necessary sometimes to include short pieces of code. However, despite appearing to include the newlines when creating the poll, when that same poll actually displays to the screen, the newlines disappear and everything runs together into a paragraph. I'm not sure whether I am doing something wrong, or if something is going on with the tool.
1 voteWell, there are a few tricks. You can add breaklines by using \n (backslash n) to create a new line.
So, to write the following output:
“How cool is this?
Please note: the answer is Ice Cold”You would type this in the title field:
“How cool is this? \n Please note: the answer is Ice Cold”We also support just about any HTML Entity in the title of the poll question if you want to be fancy. This can get you a lot of various mathematical symbols. You can read about them here: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_entities.asp
