Live Poll FAQ

How to create an online voting poll?

Go to Slideasy, a live poll maker and sign in. Create a new presentation, then add a live poll slide.

Type the question people are voting on. Keep it plain. If the wording needs explaining out loud, rewrite it. Add your options underneath. This is where most votes go wrong. Options that overlap force people to guess which one you meant, and the result stops meaning anything. Make each choice clearly separate from the rest. Save it.

You can build the vote days ahead or write one during the session if the room raises something you didn't plan for.

When it's time to vote, present the slide. Your audience joins with a code in their phone browser. No sign-up. No app. Votes come in anonymously. That matters more than people expect. The count builds on screen as responses land. Everyone watches the same count.

Slideasy runs in its own browser tab and doesn't plug into PowerPoint or Zoom. Keep the tab open and switch over when the vote comes up. Close it once the audience has answered. The result stays saved in your account.
