Ability to hide target area on clickable image poll through template poll
I use a template poll to hide results by default for multiple choice type polls. This seems to translate to hiding click markers on clickable images polls but the target areas are still shown by default. I would like the option to hide these as well so students only see the unadorned image when the poll is launched., without have to edit this setting for each clickable image poll.

Custom time period for correct answer visibility delay
Instead of having a drop down with limited options for the "When should correct responses be visible to participants?" setting, have it be a field where you fill in a set number of hours/days.
Even better - if we could set this on a per-poll or per-group basis and enter in a specific date as well.

Give the option to show regions in present mode.
For the poll I want to create, I have selected specific regions and ideally would be able to show those on present mode so that voters can "click" on the region they are voting for instead of randomly clicking on the map. The way it’s set up now, the map is blank and you essentially have to cross your fingers that voters click on an area that corresponds to one of those boxes. Keep in mind - some countries are small! For this use-case, I feel like a pin would be sufficient as shown under “Audience Favorites” (hopefully people can…

Experiments
Allow teachers to run in-class experiments: By this I mean that I want to direct all my students to one link. The poll or survey should then (randomly) direct one half of students to one version of a question and the other half of students to another version of a question. This way I can show how different question wording / scenarios / ... lead to different responses.
thanks

Change the order of text number and poll number
I am getting feedback from many students and colleagues that, when I request them to text their poll response, the language on the slide does not read clearly. It provides the content of the text message (the unique poll number to text with the response) before providing the phone number to text to. On many devices, you have to put in a number before you can draft a text. The ordering of these two numbers results in many people sending a text to the poll number and putting the text number in the content of the text message.

Ability to show multiple choice answers one at a time in Powerpoint
Instead of giving all multiple choice answers at the same time, allow the presenter to show a new answer on click. There are benefits to showing students the answers one at time. This might require to be able to activate the poll in ppt manually, instead of instant activation as soon as the slide/poll comes up.

Censor using a custom word list (in addition to usual profanity)
My students often post names of classmates and other professors to make fun of them. I'd like to prevent this problem.

Could you add a feature to "competitions" so that every class I could run one, and the results would be added to a cumulative ranking?
The idea is this, each class I could run my current events competition and get a weekly winner and ranking of ALL participants. As well, as the weeks go by I could produce a cumulative ranking of ALL competitions for the group.

Use of ENTER in text-fields - Linebreak not possible
Students cannot use ENTER-button, and often submit and have to re-do the questions. They cannot even use line-shift as SHIFT+ENTER.

Provide the APK file for foreign Android platform users who do not have access to Google Playstore
I was recently using your poll in China. We encountered a difficulty for Android users because they are not able to download the android app because they are not able to access Google playstore. As you know Google is blocked in China. We also tried to locate the APK file but it could not be installed. While the web interface can be used, I think we all agree that the app is much more convenient. Is there a solution that you can provide to allow Android based phone users in China to have access to the app?

Open Ended Question Categorization
Hi, I am an independent event manager and I manage a number of medical events across the country. we use your software as a stand-alone program, which works great for our application. Many of our questions are open source questions from the audience being texted into my computer then displayed for later response. During a speakers talks the audience has the ability to randomly pose questions related to that particular presentation. At the end of each presentation, or during a designated QA session we produce, or display the questions for the faculty to review and answer. It works great. The…

Add attendance export for Sakai
Sakai seems to have some ability to import an attendance report. It would be nice if Poll Everywhere could export a compatible file.

A better "attendance tracker"
Please consider a way in the Poll “Configure” options to a) Auto lock after a duration of time and then b) auto report of a particular group (as user (admin) specified) and finally, c) auto clear of results. If all three could be scripted to execute in that sequence, at the intervals specified, there would be some SERIOUSLY added value to using your approach to attendance tracking.
This would be helpful because most teachers using the approach recommended on your blog are capped at 40 results…it’s yet one more step to have to remember to clear results every time classes…

Clearly indicate when I'm logged in on iOS
Clearly indicate when I'm logged in on iOS
I use an iPhone and intend to always be logged in to the app. For the first few weeks, I was taking polls and would check the invisible nav bar on the right to see if I was logged in, then slide it away. Last week, although I was able to answer the poll, I was shocked to see that I was no longer logged in, causing my response to not be recorded in my profile. Had there been some indication on the screen when I was taking the poll that I…

Leaderboards
It would be great if we could add our independent questions from our polls to be included in a Leaderboard. Example: I have a PPT with several review questions and preknowledge questions that are not in a Competition. At the end, it would be nice to recognize those individuals that had the most correct without having to move to the reports.

Option to turn off access to participant response history
Instructors using PE for exam review do not want students to have access to a log of their questions to share with each other or future classes. Just turning off correct isn't enough, they want to completely make access to their questions banks not possible.

Ranking bar sizes scaled to convey average rank position (and show number)
It appears that the bar chart in ranking polls conveys a simple spread from 1-x, with equal size steps for each rank, and any ties having equal bar lengths. Would like option to display bar sizes that are scaled to indicate the average rank position so you can tell which answers are very close or landslide winners. Suggest a bar size formula along lines of: (max length)*(number of answers+1)-(avg rank position). Another nice feature would be at least to display the average rank position of each answer/bar rounded to the tenths.

Allow ODBC link to poll data to facilitate custom queries/analytics
Give us a way to link directly to raw data or tabular format. I currently manually pull down my poll everywhere data in your 'pivot table' report format and perform custom query analytics and visualizations in MS Access and Tableau. It'd be nice to be able to set up the link to the poll/survey data once and not have to deal with the tedium of version control and manual steps.
