Poll Everywhere “join” usually means how participants enter a live poll or class session using a link, code, or presenter username.
How to join a Poll Everywhere poll
You generally have three main ways to join :
- Via web link (most common)
- Look at the presenter’s slide or screen for a URL like:
pollev.com/usernameor a custom link.
- Look at the presenter’s slide or screen for a URL like:
* On your phone, laptop, or tablet, open a browser and type that address.
* The live activity appears and you can submit your response in real time.
- With the Poll Everywhere app
- Download the Poll Everywhere app from the iOS App Store or Google Play.
* Open the app, choose **Join presentation** (or similar prompt).
* Enter the **username** or code your instructor/presenter gives you, then tap **Join**.
* You’ll either see the active poll or a “waiting” screen until the presenter starts.
- By SMS text (if enabled)
- On some activities, you can text a code to the number shown at the top of the presenter’s screen.
* Text the code or your answer as instructed, then you can text “LEAVE” (or as directed) to exit the session.
