The app is good for simple class polls. Would be great if the instructor could see how many students voted for each response and if students could edit an answer before the poll closes. Also, when submitting the poll to multiple sections it has severe lag when trying to start or stop the poll and does not accurately reflect the total number of students in each section. The app has great potential and, as an instructor, I would prefer to use a Canvas app versus other options.

No information about results or participation is shared with your Canvas course, which makes it almost useless. Just use Acadly instead - that at least gives you the option to export info.

On Android I can't go back after answering a poll. I have to log out. Then, when logging in it doesn't remember my school or my authorization. Please fix.
