You are great
Just to tell to whomever is creating the test for this website in theRainforestQA platform that you are a good person. It is one of the friendliest test I have worked on and I wanted to tank you for making my job a little better
Best regards

Grouping Participants
Better way to group participants once they are linked to your polls. I can only color code the participants, but I can't find a way to sort or collect the names within a "group"
6 votesThere are a few ways to sort your list of Registered Participants today. You can put your participants into Participant Groups. These can be created on the right side of the participants table. This will have color coded circles for each participant group. You may click on the circles on the right side to show/hide certain participant groups in the table.
You may also sort by first name, last name, email address, or created at date within the participant table. Finally, if that isn’t enough for you! You can also export the list of participants to CSV and sort within Excel.

Fixed feedback - second vote
Allow poll creator to send electric shock back to users of devices that got the question wrong - excellent motivator for pre-school.
Failing that, allow automated response to be sent back to user based on their vote - a kind of instant fixed-text feedback, before offering a second vote with which they can confirm or alter their response.
4 votesHa, well we probably won’t go the route of electric shock. I can only imagine the a meeting with our lawyer after that…
But, we do have an auto-reply message feature to allow any of our paid users to send a reply SMS or post a message on the web response page. You can see the details of this here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/guide#custom_reply_messages
Our Change Answer feature is now available! Students may now click “Clear Responses” at the bottom of the page to change their original answer. And, if they are using text message – they may text Clear or Undo to the same number to change their response.
The combination of these two should get you 90% if not more of the way there

Start/Stop controls access from list
The Stop/Start button is more confusing now when the poll is being displayed, and there's no access to starting or stopping polls from the poll screen with a single-click. This is the only thing I dislike about the NEW pollev.
5 votesLock/Unlock is our new concept of Start/Stop. We have a single button on the top right of every poll display that will be a grey Padlock icon. This will lock/stop a poll question and prevent any more responses from coming through.
For the most part, the “New” PollEv is based around the concept of activation. Usually I recommend just using our Full Screen feature to got through polls. Our User Guide will explain it better than I ever could. Check out our detailed explanation AND a video here: https://www.polleverywhere.com/guide#presenting_from_the_web
Please shoot us an email to support@PollEverywhere.com if you have any trouble though!

Order survey questions
Ability to order questions in Survey View
1 voteThe order of polls in Survey View is determined by the order of the polls in your group. You can re-order your polls by hovering over a poll question, clicking on the “handle” to the left, and dragging your poll to the desired position in the group.

Yeah! We can do this. Here’s how
1. Open the emaze presentation you want to include a poll inside of.
2. Click the “Media” button at the top of the screen. You’ll see a place to insert code.
3. In another tab, open your Poll Everywhere poll that you want to embed.
4. Click on the “Present” tab, then under “Share,” click “Embed Poll.”5. On the page that follows, you should see a snippet of code that you can include. Copy this.
6. Paste the code you just copied into the emaze embed section. Your poll should appear!
There’s one limitation to note that I can see- our control buttons do not appear in emaze’s embed method. As such, to control activation, locking, etc. of the polls, you’ll need to use an external method. For this, I would recommend using our mobile app.

stop timer without advancing automatically to next poll
have a timer that stops a poll from accepting answers but that does not advance to the next poll -- when used in the classroom, then I could have a timed cut off for response, but would still have time to reveal student answers, correct answer, and discuss before manually moving on to the next poll
1 voteGood news, this already exists! You can use the countdown timer explained in detail here: http://www.polleverywhere.com/guide#countdown_timer

option to assign poll to a pre-existing group as you create them
The option to choose a group to save your poll to after creating it would be useful. Quicker than having to keep dragging it from the default ungrouped area into the appropriate group, particularly if you already have a very long list
6 votesYou got it! We recently added a “Add a question” link at the bottom of every group and survey on your my/polls page. You can click it and add polls directly to pre-existing groups.

"X" for deleting open ended posts
Ability on the instructors end to delete unwanted open-ended posts. In a high school setting it would be nice to have a little "x" in the corner of the though bubbles in case a student writes something inappropriate, it is quickly and easily deleted.
1 voteThis can be done with the moderation feature!

Hide responses by default
Set up the do not show responses by default, and automatically switch to show responses once the poll closes.
1 voteDid you know you can already hide responses by default? Hide responses on one poll, and set that poll as the template for all other polls on the settings page. Voila!
