Questions fréquentes
Do I need a PowerPoint add-in like ClassPoint?
No. PollsLive runs in the browser, so there's no add-in to install or have approved by IT. You add a QR or link to a slide, or present the live results in a browser tab.
Does it work outside PowerPoint?
Yes. Because it isn't tied to PowerPoint, PollsLive works the same alongside Google Slides, Keynote, or on its own.
Do students need accounts?
No. Students join with a code or QR from any phone or laptop - no app, no login.
