A QR code has been added to the activity to make it easier for students to access the activity URL with their smartphone cameras. Both the URL and the QR code will launch your activities on the students' devices.

The layout of Open Response questions has changed. Just as before the participant's answers are displayed just as they were input (unlike a word cloud) and each response appears one at a time. As each new response appears, the others will animate downward to make room for it. It is possible to increase the speed in the visual settings. 

The timer feature has been updated. You can enable the timer in the "Configure" tab on the Poll Everywhere website before you present. When the question is activated the timer will automatically start, and when it finishes the question will automatically lock.  Presenters can control the timer with controls that will appear along the bottom of the slide.
