A great feature to add would be the ability to insert a video, or video clip, in the "question box."
Students would watch the video/video clip and then answer a question(s) about the video.

Built in LATEX equation editor for questions and answers
As a physics teacher it would be a real boon to be able to quickly and easily insert equations to questions and answers. Latex would be perfect for this, and online platforms already exist which convert latex code into an equation image. Combining this with Plickers would be absolutely awesome.

Randomize Plicker multiple choice responses
I teach the same class all day long and I have found that as the day goes on kids are sharing the plicker answers with my afternoon classes. I was wondering if there was a way to randomize the multiple choice answers, and if there was not I think you should work on making it an option.

Fonts sizes and styles
It would be helpful to be able to change font sizes and styles in both the question and the answer choices. My first graders have a hard time reading the small font and the letter a. When I try and test things like commas and periods, it is so hard to see.

Copying Questions
I teach multiple grades and I would sometimes like to have repeat questions within grade-specific folders without having to recreate the entire question.

Multiple pictures for questions AND answers
I would like to be able to add more than one picture to the question and I would also like to be able to add pictures (even multiple) for the answers. My 1st graders love Plickers and we are using it, but sometimes they need a picture because they can't yet read all answers and questions.

Have the ability to copy and paste images
On the web-based version, you currently have the ability to upload an image. It would be easier to be able to paste image files in. This should be for the question as well as the answer choices, as right now you can't put images in the answer choices.

Link Google Sheet with Plickers for fast, collaborative question creation.
Creating questions would be easy in a spreadsheet. Question answers ans correct responses in different columns, with a category of class added to aid organisation would be great. Connect the Google Sheet to plickers and off you go. Copy and Paste is fine, but the current way of adding questions for your class with no sharing to speed up the process doesn't match with the amazing use of the app . Questions from a bank by subject would well be worth paying for!

I would love to be able to access a bank of questions based on standards created by other teachers.
It would be wonderful if I could access a bank of questions created by other teachers based on grade level standards. Why reinvent the wheel?

Option to delay the reveal of an image/graphic
Have the option to delay the presentation of an image (one that illustrates the answer and allows for discussion) until after the question has been asked and all answers have been submitted.
For example: If the question is "On which continent is Myanmar located?", I could include an image of a blank global map with the question, and once students submit their answers I can reveal a new image of the global map with a star on the location of Myanmar.
I don't want this image to appear alongside the question itself because it gives away the answer. But for…

I would like an assessment bank to share questions. Have categories, like 3rd grade fractions or elementary floor hockey. Click to share.
When you write a questions, there could be an option to click on "share." Then you put in it in a age group "Elementary" or "5th grade" and then the topic. For instance, "Elementary volleyball" or "5th grade, division". It would be great when planning a unit, to see if there are questions already ready instead of creating your own each time. It would be a time saver and there would be a better chance the students have a better quality of questions than just me creating them all.

Plickers could have pre-created questions in a data base to choose from.
Plickers could have pre-created questions in a data base. They could be categorized like Movies, Actors, TV Shows, Sports, books and general interest. Then we could use your questions to insert them in our queues. For instance...I could have 3 vocabulary questions and then one about movies (to make more motivating). Then 3 more of my questions and then another about sports. And you could have simple questions like: Which of this movies is not about Sci-fi : a) Star Wars b) Contact c) E.T d) Deep blue. We teachers could save A LOT of time if I have the…

Have a common library of all users' questions (if given permission somehow) to add to your personal library.
There should be a common library organized according to grade, subject, and keyword that allows users to use content created and uploaded by other users. Something like a universal library.

Add One Question to Multiple Classes Simultaneously
Could you please add a feature to add a question to all classes instead of having to click each one individually? I wanted to add about 2 dozen questions to each of my 24 classes and had to click the queue for each class individually in each question.
