The six kinds of slide

Multiple choice

Up to six answers. Choose whether people may pick one or several. Short answers appear as columns; longer ones as rows, so they stay readable.

Use it for: decisions, opinions, “where are you joining from?”

Word cloud

People send one, two or three short answers each, up to three words. The most common grow in the middle. Capitals and stray punctuation do not split a word in two, and offensive words are refused.

Use it for: moods, expectations, “one word for this week”.

Rating scale

A scale from 1 to 5, 7 or 10, with your own labels at each end. The screen shows how the answers are spread and the average.

Use it for: confidence, satisfaction, “how clear was that?”

Audience Q&A

People send questions and upvote other people’s. You can approve each question before it shows on the screen, and mark questions as answered.

Use it for: panels, town halls, the end of a lecture.

Quiz question

Two to four answers with one correct, and a timer of 10 to 60 seconds. See Running a quiz for how scoring works.

Content slide

A heading, some words and a picture from the built-in library. People’s phones show the heading while it is on screen.
