Poll Everywhere feature update
To provide a more intuitive and user-friendly experience, Poll Everywhere will implement a visual redesign and introduce new features on July 19, 2023.
The upcoming changes will allow you to:
- Add a QR code for participants to join an activity quickly
- Present and moderate activities via the Poll Everywhere mobile app
- Compose custom reply messages to participants after they submit a response
- Display open-ended question responses as a text wall instead of clusters
- Utilize multiple-choice activities instead of segmentation or heat maps
Additional changes include the relocation of voting instructions to the left panel of the activity page and a change to activity settings, where some options—such as axis color, label color, and highlighting—will no longer be customizable.
Visit Poll Everywhere's list of new visual settings for a detailed overview of these changes and their potential impacts on your activities.
