We made some recent changes to our Office 365 integration (which is the version of Office used on iOS). These changes will let you log into your Poll Everywhere account and insert polls that you created previously. So, you do not need to “recreate” poll questions, but you will need to reinsert them into your PowerPoint presentation.
Office 365 for iPad works on a completely different architecture than our desktop PowerPoint app, so the two are not interchangeable for now.
That said, there is a way to do this but it means using the Office 365 App from the get go. If you have Office 365 on your desktop, you can create the poll questions from our Office 365 App and then open the deck on your iPad. Here’s a bit how:
1. open PowerPoint on your desktop
2. click Insert → Add-ins → store → find the Poll Everywhere office add-in
3. log into that app with your regular Poll Everywhere username/password
4. insert your poll slides through that app
5. then you can save the deck on your desktop and open that on your iPad.
The main thing here is that you need to make sure you are using the Microsoft addin store version of our PowerPoint integration and not our normal installed one.
