have a "save poll results as a graphic" option
although easy to PRINTSCREEN and save to PAINT
how about an export to image button? so it can be inserted manually into a presentation that way you can save the reponses quickly. particulalrly if you are going o re-use the poll very soon2 votesThanks for your interest in Poll Everywhere!
That’s a great idea! We’ve actually already done this for multiple-choice polls. When looking at your poll in your account, on the right side you’ll see a Views button. Clicking that will reveal a few links, one of which is Screenshot.
Give that a shot!
Best,

Have multiple clickable image icon settings
I spoke with Sejal (vashi@hsph.harvard.edu) and she was using the clickable image (emotion one). She wanted to change up the icon (maybe to an arrow) on the clickabe image and change the color of the drop pin but there isn't a way. She would like to request these options be added to our clickable image
1 voteWe have just added the ability to change the colors of the Pins for our clickable image polls. Here’s how:
1. Open the clickable image poll you want to edit
2. click the Visual Settings button on the top right of the poll display
3. expand the menu titled “Clicks received”You will then have the option to change the default pin color, the color for correct answers, and the color for incorrect answers.
Click ‘Save’ to apply the new colors.

Allow creation of a template on website as currently exists on plugin
Just as I can create a template when working on powerpoint, I'd like to have a template when creating polls on the site. Eg., it appears my polls are randomly assigned by the system to be anonymous vs. not. I'd like to set it so that all polls are anonymous, applied to existing polls and future polls.
1 voteWe do have a template poll feature available. You can see the details for how it works and how to set it up here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/support/articles/your-settings/template-poll
And, that will support the Anonymous poll setting as well.

Edit survey
The edit screen needs adjusted. When editing a survey, you cannot see the 'correct' response. Overall very clunky.
1 voteWe have implemented a change to our survey editor to make it look more like our creation workflow. And, it does now have the correct answer shown.
Thanks for the feedback

Completion count
I want to see how many people have voted on a specific slide. Currently I can see that 70% have chosen B and 30% have chosen C, but I don't know how many are done at this point on this slide (when do I move on?)
1 voteYou can do that today! Here’s how:
- click on the Paintbrush icon to the top right of the poll
- select the Total results menu to expand it
- then click the checkbox to show total results while you are showing the chart -
Default Group & Survey Collapse
Allow collapse all groups and surveys by default and allow this setting to be locked. Great numbers of groups and surveys can require lots and lots of scrolling or clicking when this feature is not available.
1 voteWe do have a “Collapse all” feature on our My Polls page. If you click the checkmark toward the top of the page (just above the Ungrouped area) → you should see an option to Collapse all. That will collapse all of your groups and surveys. It will persist with one exception – the Ungrouped group will expand by default when you log in or refresh the page. This is something we do plan on addressing, but is actually a very difficult technical problem as that is our “root” group.
Will that work for you?

Figures in the question
Allow pictures/figures in the question text
1 voteThere are a couple of different ways to show pictures while displaying our chart. We have a new side-by-side image option that you can read about here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/blog/instruction-image/
And, we’ll be adding some improvements to that very soon. Otherwise, for mathematical or scientific expressions you can use LaTeX https://www.polleverywhere.com/support/articles/power-users/latex
And, we also have full emoji support for our question titles
Hope this helps! And, thanks for the feedback

Posting images as a question, not a clickable image.
Let us post a photo in place of typing a question! I have many quizzes that I have as PDFs that I have to retype, whereas when I used iclickers or SMART clickers I could just upload the screenshot of the question, and then type in the answer choices. It would make my life MUCH easier when I have questions that include scientific symbols and equations!!!
1 voteWe actually just released this feature last week! There is a new visualization feature that will allow you to have an image displayed side by side with your multiple choice poll’s bar chart. You can see details for it here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/blog/instruction-image/

Add number of participants to bar graph
When posting bar charts, it would really be helpful if the number of participants involved in that bar could be listed on the bar.

Click on the grey paintbrush icon on the top right of the poll chart to open our visual settings menu > then select “Count” under the Response Totals section

Just some feedback!
No complaints - I just want to give some very positive feedback! I use PollEv for teaching medical students and junior doctors about radiology. It has been universally well received. In particular, the option to place a marker on an image is great and perfect for teaching radiology. I use it to ask students to identify abnormal areas on x-rays.
Thank you for making such a great product!
1 voteHey, thanks a lot! Always wonderful to hear. I’m glad our Clickable Image Polls are working, so well for you. We have a few small improvements for that poll type slated toward the end of the year, so keep an eye out for it.
Have a good one!
