Whether you aim to test the knowledge of your audience or simply want to engage more people with a little game, then having your audience guess the correct answer in a poll shall do the trick!

 

In this article:


 

Reveal the answer

 

Once you activate your poll and attendees send their votes, you can reveal the correct answer. The correct answer will be automatically highlighted in both Present and Participant modes. You can also edit your poll by selecting edit from the dropdown menu, which takes you to the options in poll settings, such as hiding live results if you wanted to reveal them later or not have them show at all.

Hide the results before you start your poll to make sure attendees are not influenced by each other. Afterwards, lock the voting to stop people from sending their votes while you present the results

 

 

Export the results

 

If you’re running a contest, check off the option to require a name from your participants before you run your polls. Then export the results per user to see how people voted.
