Reviews & Comments of Poll Everywhere for Google Slides chrome extension

Works without any issues!

Does not add slides anymore. Worked back in February, has not worked for months. I love PollEV but its a showstopper not being able insert new activities! Please fix. Thanks!

Doesnt work in google slides like it said it does. Such a shame because I love Polleverywhere!

Used to be great. Now (Jan 2022) all i get is an "invalid authenticity token" when I try to log in through google slides on chrome. I can log into the polleverywhere site no problem and see all the activities I've built up over several years but now it's not working with google slides. Grrr. I tried to contact support but all they have now are "help pages" and no way to contact them with issues that aren't already in their support pages. It used to be great. Appears not to be any more.

Has worked for me in the past, both as a student and as a presenter, but now it's not working. I can create activities and access from their web site, but it fails when adding the activity to a slide. "We can't find the image at that URL. " So frustrating as I was planning to use this in a presentation tomorrow, now I have to go install and learn something else like PearDeck.

Never works .

It's such a cool idea and I appreciate that it plugs in directly to Google Slides. However, I never could get it to work and it would never take me beyond the sign-in/sign-up page after trying to sign in multiple times on different accounts. Once that bug gets worked out, I imagine it'll be a lot more helpful.

Doesn't work. What the instruction say and what you see are completely different!

The extention is synced with google single sign on but the Poll Everywhere dropdown in slides is not and won't let me sign in with the single sign on. very frustrating.

I despite pollEV. The whole idea is to make dynamic content that updates in real-time as audience members submit responses. It doesn't do that, and it offers no support to fix it. Complete trash.

I installed it, it didn't work. It "refuses" to load in slides. So I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it still didn't work. I searched the support FAQ for the language used in the error message, and nothing came up. I even installed Chrome explicitly to use this extension in Slides. 45 minutes wasted.

Works well with MS Powerpoint and Google Slides. I use it for student education and conference talks. Excellent audience engagement tool. Completely free for up to 40 participants. Easy to use and reliable. Participants can quickly respond without going through a lengthy login process and/or signing up with their email addresses. The removes barriers for use.

I can use directly from the site as a Teacher. Now I tried to use it on Chrome, well it is not working for me so far...

I cannot get the extension to load in chrome on my macbook. It shows up under the extensions, but does not show up in the Chrome window on Google Slides as an option to use.

Hate it beyond words.

Incredible

This is awesome and it's so much fun!!

good apps

perfect

I am having trouble adding the live poll feature into my google slides. I have tried "insert image" an copy paste the URL, but now I am getting a message that it's not correct. It initially worked when I only had 1 question on the poll, but when I increased the Poll to 3 questions, I couldn't get the image to populate into Google Slides. It worked initially after I added the Chrome ext and then it stopped. Can you help? My session is tomorrow morning. ​​

It is not working!

Wow!

awesome! great for teaching.

Very unstable. It just keeps reloading. Can't expect to use it for any important presentation!

Great for building background for novels.

I could not create an account after endless amount of attempts.

I've been using Poll Everywhere in my Google Slides presentations for a few months. It's helped me collect responses from my students throughout the presentation as opposed to separately at the end. I love it, and my students now expect it.

Overall, the use of this product has enhanced my presentations. Poll Everywhere offers a level of engagement that you can not accomplish in a verbal question and answer session. Great product!

a great tool by a super company, Poll Everywhere. Once it works well gets 4-5 stars. Will updated Raf

does not work, it lets me select a poll and then nothing happens. using latest chrome on mac

UPDATE: Suddenly, the Poll Everywhere extension showed up as an option on my tool bar. Sweet. Can't wait to try it. Original: I cannot get the extension to load in chrome on my macbook. It shows up under the extensions, but does not show up in the Chrome window on Google Slides as an option to use. Would love to be able to use this and rate this effort by Poll Everywhere, Inc 5-stars but cannot until I can actually use it. Will update this rating when I find that it works.

I used this in my higher ed class and it worked great as a quick tool to do some review of the material. It kept students involved and learning. It worked great in my class.

Tried the beta - worked every time with no issues. Excited to try out the new features. If you are a Poll Everywhere user, then you need this extension.

This is fun and works great to liven up a presentation.

Very easy to use - I have recommended it with all the teachers I work with. I am curious about the new features - login from Google Slides, poll creation within Google Slides, etc. - I haven't tried those yet!

How would you like to have your cake and eat it too? It's possible now that Poll Everywhere polls can be embedded in Google Slides. No more flipping back and forth between poll questions and slides. Forget that presentation tool that only really works on the desktop. Taste and see that life is good in the cloud. Your audience will love the interaction. :)

I would like the ability to have the poll on take up some of the screen, similar to the office plug in.

Easy to use and works.
