Put the results on screen

Every poll has its own live results page. Open it from the poll's page, move that browser window to the projector or screen, and it updates as votes come in.

Steps

1. In the app, go to Audience Tools, then Audience Polls.
2. Click Open results page on the poll's row, or open the poll and click Open Results Page at the top.
3. The page opens in a new tab. Drag that window to the screen in the room and use your browser's full-screen mode.

The link is also shown under Results page on the poll's page, so you can copy it to another computer.

What the page shows

• The question and the total number of responses.
• Each answer with a bar, its percentage, and its count.
• When the poll closes: "Poll closed" and a banner with the Winner, or It's a tie when answers share the top spot.
• A small "Powered by Textiful" link at the bottom.

It never shows names or phone numbers. It updates in real time, so there’s nothing to reload.

Change how it looks

On the poll's page, under Results page:

• Theme: Dark or Light. Pick whichever reads better on your screen.
• Closing time: for a poll that closes at a set time, show a Countdown timer, the Closing day and time, or Don't show.
• Confetti when the poll closes: on by default. It plays on screens showing the results page as the poll closes, then reveals the winner. Screens set to reduce motion don't show it.

Click Save changes. Screens that already have the page open pick up the new results automatically; reload the page to see a new theme.

Share it with the room

The default reply after someone votes includes the results link, so people can follow along on their phones. The closing text can include it too (see Close a poll).
