Poll type that can record a timestamp of the audience when being shown a video.
Getting the audience to log time staps on their device and visualize the average of the group. I would then want to compare to the average audience opinion when shown another video.
1 voteGreat idea, we’re always looking for new activity types. Embedding videos is not on our short-term roadmap right now, but we hope to get to it one day.

save word cloud
After "clearing" results for Word Cloud to prepare for next batch of audience responses, I need a way to back to archived version of word cloud and be able to export or download word cloud image.
9 votesRight now we’ll load the screenshot of the Word cloud in an Executive summary report, but we know that is smaller than ideal. We will definitely look into what it would take to add the ability to download larger screenshots of archived Word clouds.

Report and archived run changes
Can you please consider adding the functionality to run reports on multiple runs, AND to tease out data from one archived run that should have been split into two?
5 votesThanks for the suggestion. We’ll consider adding this to our roadmap in the future.

Add Feature for Open Questions
Enable a feature that requires a poller to respond to a question before moving on to the next one.
1 voteWe currently don’t have plans to add required questions to a Survey activity. If we hear more requests for it, we’ll consider adding this to our roadmap.

Allow branching in surveys, so I don't need to use SurveyMonkey anymore!
Allow branching in the non-live surveys, so there can be follow-up questions posed to only those who respond in a certain way to a question. Thanks!
9 votesThis idea has come up before. It would be a large project that will take time for us to complete. We’ll look into it as we get more feedback and interest.

Accumulative point scoring on grading feature
The option for points scoring to be the sum total based on the options a respondee chooses, so when running a report this is a total figure rather than just one of the choices they selected.
For example you have a multiple choice question with 4 possible choices, each choice is worth 25 points and respondees are able to response up to 4 times. If a respondee selects 3 options they them accrue a total of 75 pints etc.
7 votesThanks for your feedback. We’ll look into what it would take to update our reporting features for questions with multiple correct answers.

Add more languages (e.g. Afrikaans)
Please add the ability to localise/translate the UI easily into other languages than those currently supported. I'm mostly presenting to an Afrikaans audience, using Afrikaans slides, and would therefore also like to have the instructions, etc. in Afrikaans. This of course, also apply to other unsupported languages. Thank you!
1 voteThanks for the suggestion. We’ll look into this.

Chat Feature?
Hi, I see the Chat feature discussion from 2015, but it doesn't fully address my needs. I'd like a CHAT feature in Poll Everywhere (PE) - just like Zoom has. In fact, that's the only reason I use Zoom over PE. The CHAT feature allows webinar participants an opportunity to ask questions, add comments, etc. Please incorporate this to Poll Everywhere. Thank you.
1 voteThanks! We’ve been looking into this as well and will keep you posted on our progress.

Include vote results on Pivot Report for "Brainstorm" ideas results
When downloading results on a .csv file in the Pivot view, we lose the vote results from "Brainstorm" template. Can this be brought in as a field? I know the Exec Summary report right now has them but would be great to have this feature on the Pivot too.
2 votesThanks for your suggestion — we’ll look into this as we see more interest in this feature.

Group competitions
Divide the participants (or let them choose) in groups so they can compete against groups on the leaderboards rather than individually. Similar to the option for this in Turningpoint.
Group based competitiveness is increasingly applied within (higher) education.
Personally I wish to engage with my students playfully without compounding on the individual pressures which fuels the fear of failing, avoiding of risk and the negative aspects of performativity and goal-oriented behaviour which are typically already over-cultivated in (higher) education.
7 votesThanks for the suggestion, we’ve always been interested in having a group or team Competition feature. As we see more interest, we’ll look into adding it to our roadmap.

allow to set mandatory questions vs not mandatory questions
Some questions might not be mandatory to answer allowing to skip them and move to the next one

Create teams
For the competitions, could participates select a team they would like to be a part of, or better yet, could I assign participants to specific teams for competitions.
17 votesCompetitions is our newest activity type and we’re always looking to enhance it. This one is on our radar, and we’ll look into pursuing it as there is more interest.

Export poll questions
Poll Everywhere should include an option for poll creators to export poll questions out of the system. This could be done via .csv file. Since poll questions can be imported into the system, there should be an option to export them as well.
11 votesWe do have data exports available for our University-Wide and Enterprise accounts. Anyone on these accounts may contact their dedicated Account Manager to get this enabled.
Otherwise, we do have a CSV export for our Executive Summary report which will have the poll title and all response options. However, the format isn’t really designed to be uploaded to another system necessarily and may need someone to manually delete certain fields to work.

In competitions, ability to make questions worth different number of points
In competitions, instead of each correctly answered question automatically being worth 1000 points, this value should be customizable, so questions can be worth 100, 200, 500, etc points.
Also, the option of setting incorrectly answered questions as negative points.
15 votesThanks for your suggestion. Our current goals are to try to keep Competitions as simple and easy to understand as possible for both the presenter and the audience when it comes to scoring. We have other features in the roadmap for Competitions first but we’ll definitely consider this as interest grows.

Competition - set up for over time, not just for one session
Can Competition be set up as a loop? This way we can put up the questions on a monitor and people who walk by can answer questions as they please and over time we can see the winner on the leaderboard.
10 votesThanks for the suggestion. Competitions is our newest activity type and we’re always looking to expand its functionality. We’ll look into this with more interest.

I am wondering if I can make a shape(ex. animal, tree...) with the keywords from the participants in Word Cloud function.
Since I saw Pollev, It changed the way I survey.
My name is Hwain Moon from Korea and I work for a pharmaceutical company.
I use pollev's word cloud function to get doctors' idea on our product. To tell the truth I am 90% satisfied with the service now.
But I am wondering if I can make a shape(ex. animal, tree...) with the keywords from the participants in Word Cloud function.
Best regards,

Allow students to submit open-ended answers to a question, and then allow the class to choose the correct answer from the submissions
For those who have played the game Fibbage, this idea will sound familiar, because it's an ingenious way of making classroom quizzes fun.
I'd love to see a feature where students would be allowed to submit an answer to a question. After all submissions are received, they appear on the screen in addition to the correct answer. Students must select the correct answer from among all of the submissions.
What makes this a game and much more fun is that kids are encouraged to submit clever (but ultimately incorrect) "fake" answers to try to fool the other students and prevent…
3 votesThat sounds super fun! I’m not quite sure how to do that from a technical perspective, but I’ll bring it up to the team for new activity types.
We already have a few other new ones in our roadmap we hope to do first, but I’ll bring this up. Thank you so much for the explanation
