Weighted grading settings
I grade my students based on participation and correctness both (1 point for participation, another for correctness). I've been using the weighted grading options to give 2 points to the correct answer and 1 point to the wrong ones, but I wish I could simply set all my polls to automatically always do this.

Put back the ability to export poll screenshots directly from the Activity page!
It's completely inefficient--particularly when segmenting polls with multiple other polls--to have to go to the "Response History" page to simply download a screenshot. The new method requires the user to leave the activity screen, go to the Response History, export the screenshot, go back to the activity screen, wait for the lengthy time it takes for the segmentation tool to reload all polls, select the new segmentation poll, and start the process all over again (just getting the segmentation drop-down to populate fully takes forever, and now users have to wait for that population each and every time they return…
1 voteThank you for feedback! We understand the extra steps it takes to download a screenshot from the response history page with segmentation.
We recommend using your computer’s native screenshot functionality to save the activity visual without leaving the page.

Cursor scrolls to the top of the page when FAQ is clicked
The cursor should go to the correct "expanded" Answer when you click an FAQ question. Instead it goes right to the top, and you have to scroll down to find your answer. Please verify and update, thanks! (On a Windows 10 laptop)
1 voteThanks for your suggestion! We will look into updating our FAQ page. In the meantime, I recommend visiting polleverywhere.com/support to find the most up to date documentation and guides.

Display clean results on website
I’m now using mmhmm to “mix” my webcam, slide show, and a virtual background before pushing out video to Zoom etc. I like the control it gives me over almost everything - except Polleverywhere. If I share a full desktop, it works, even when I use Keynote’s “play in window” function (which I have to, if I want to see anything of the Zoom interface etc.). BUT - if I click on anything other than Keynote - like the Zoom chat or something - PollEverywhere won’t display in the Keynote show until I exit it, and restart on that slide.

Utilize videos (MP5) for questions
I have a need to create questions which include short video clips. It would be nice to have this option available.

In the meantime, I recommend using our slideware apps for PowerPoint, Keynote, and Google Slides to share a Poll Everywhere activity right after a video in your presentation. Learn more at polleverywhere.com/app

A Custom Response based on a right or wrong answer
I'm running a program that would like to reveal clues based on a right answer. For example if a right answer is given I would like to give an automatic response with a "correct" but also respond with a "your next clue is hotdog". If a wrong answer is given the automatic response would read "wrong answer".

This is a great platform. My family is using it for family trivia night.
As private citizens using this for personal polls/surveys for our family trivia night, this is a great solution for us!
None of your plans offered are tailored for personal use like this however. With 8 people playing and setting up their questions, we're not going to pay $45 a month each for access to advanced features. If you had plans for people like us that were under $5 a month with some advanced features, we would likely exercise that option. Seems like an opportunity for an additional revenue stream related to another use case. If it were marketed correctly, there…

Cascading answers
I'd like to collect answers on the first poll slide and allow upvotes (current functionality).
Then I'd like the top X number to be automagically available in the next poll slide so that people can add short answers.
Use case:
Survey: What excuses do your prospects say when you cold call them?
(respond and upvote)
New Poll with top 5 upvoted answers: OK, how would you respond to each of these excuses?1 voteThanks for your suggestion! As a current solution, we recommend locking the Q&A activity and then using the spotlight feature, which is the star icon on each answer, to focus on one response at a time.

A slider poll with multiple sentences/questions.
Coming from Mentimeter which has it flaws, I was disappointed to be able to use only one slider with question per poll. It would be great to have several. Also great if you can show the voting frequencies behind the slider position as sometimes there are multiple populations. Mentimeter does this very well.

Bug: Renamed Activity Title is not saved
Issue: Renamed Activity Title is not saved
Repro: Create a new Activity; configure the activity with no text message response; save it; edit the activity; re title the activity; add the ability for a text response; save.

Competition with open
Competition with open-ended answers.
I want to use competition in a music quiz. Let the audience listen to a song and let them answer the question about that song. The faster you give the right answer the more points. And no peeking about answers from other players on screen during the remaining time.
1 voteThanks for your suggestion! We currently don’t support correctness on open-ended activities, which is why they don’t appear in Competitions, but we will look into this as we see more customer interest.

Screenshot of Clickable Image Polls uses Responses/Region
There is new functionality that allows one to select responses or regions when displaying a clickable image poll.
I would like the screenshot feature to show whatever is used on the live poll. So if I have selected regions, then it shows regions.

In the meantime, I’d recommend using your device’s screenshot function to capture the Clickable image activity with regions.

Histograms for multiple right answer questions should show % of respondents, not % of responses
When I have a multiple right answer question, I want to know how many of my 400 students chose each answer.
Currently the histogram shows the percentage of the total responses for each option.
I'd love the option to switch this so the histogram shows the percentage of STUDENTS who chose each option.1 voteThank you for your suggestion! We’ll look into this feature as we see more customer interest.

Notification when someone requests to join the account
It would be helpful for the account owner to receive an email notification when someone uses the request to join feature rather than relying on periodically checking the manager users admin section.

Q & A question type - make 'load new responses' refresh button either more contrast or larger
Currently, I didn't realize there was this 'Load New Responses' button as an audience member on the Q & A question after I submitted my response. See screenshot.
Might be helpful to make it larger or a different color or bolder border around button.

Make it more obvious that you need to mark an answer as correct
I'm a new user. When I went to create my first polls, I assumed that the answers had all been automatically marked as correct because there were check marks next to each of them. The result was all kinds of problems. My polls didn't work at all.
I didn't realize that I needed to click a check mark to create a green background and mark the answer as correct. That interface behavior is not standard and not obvious.
Suggestions:
Provide two clickable options, with a check mark for correct and an "X" for incorrect. Then it should be far more…

Ignore anonymous polls when creating report
Currently, if you select a folder with multiple polls in it to create a report from, if one of them was set to record answers anonymously, the report creation simply fails and tells you that it couldn't do it because there was an anonymous poll. It would make a lot more sense for it to ignore the anonymous poll and succeed in creating a report from the others (and provide a warning message that it didn't include the anonymous polls). Currently, the only work-around is to go into the folder and select each non-anonymous poll by hand. You can't…

Remove/Move "Activity Title Hidden" Message on Response Screen
I am using the option to hide the activity titles on the participants' devices to help encourage attendance. Having the option is great and it is quite effective. Enabling this option, however, puts a fairly large message "Activity title hidden, etc." that takes up a lot of the device screen above the question options, sometimes requiring users to scroll to see all options. Is it possible to have an option to remove this message (or at least display below the answer choices) so that students can see the answer choices immediately and not need to scroll? I don't think users…

Allow reports to be created from subsets of multiple folders OR allow for deletion of individual questions from a report
Currently, one has the option either to create a report from one or more selected folders, OR to create a report from selected questions within a single folder. However, when teaching, it's not always possible to get through all the intended material in a given session, so sometimes a particular class will cover the end of one topic and the beginning of another topic. If one is (reasonably) sorting polling questions into folders by topic, there's a good chance that one will need to generate a report for a particular day that includes some polls from folder A and other…
