Launching the Poll Projector View

The Projector View for your Poll is a centralized display that your entire crowd sees at your event. The Projector View shows all the details of your Poll like the active question, the available answers, live vote results, and also displays the instructions for how your crowd accesses your Poll on their mobile devices.

Your crowd uses the Projector View to "follow along" while using their mobile device to vote.

Do I Have To Use the Projector View?

No, your Poll will still work. All the information that is needed for your audience to vote is on their mobile device (questions, answers, etc.). However the Projector View shows real-time vote results which are fun to show to the audience on one centralized screen.

Open the Projector View

To open the Projector View click on the large purple "Projector View" button under the "Control Center" heading on the Experience Dashboard. The Projector View will open in a new browser tab. This browser tab can be detached and then dragged to the projector desktop of your computer.

Set the Projector View to Full-Screen Mode

After opening the Projector View in a new browser tab, you'll detach the browser tab and move it to a desktop on your computer that is connected to a projector, HDTV, or other display source. These are often connected to your computer's external display ports via HDMI, DVI, VGA, etc.

Once the projector is showing the Projector View's browser tab, click the "Full Screen" button in the lower-right-hand corner of the Projector View. This will put the Projector View into the full-screen presentation mode. You should do this bit of setup before your audience arrives at your event.

Your audience is now ready to follow along with your Poll. The Projector View will show appropriate messages based on if your Poll is in the "Ready" state, or the "Live" state, or the "Finished" state. It also shows the "Active Question" and Live Answer Results.

Now that you know how to launch the Projector View, you're ready for the next step Updating the Poll's Active Question.
