Allow webcam scanning
GradeCam has software that allows you to check scantrons using your webcam. I think Plickers is a phenomenal idea and it would be even more awesomer (deliberate use of horrible language) if kids could hold their cards up towards the camera as they walked out of the room. That way, teachers could post a one-question exit ticket on the board and collect data to the very last second of instruction.

Assessing understanding using Plickers
In our school over here in the UK, we like to ask the children about their current understanding (sometimes at the start, sometimes during and sometimes at the end of lessons). We use traffic light colours to do this. I have added a red dot next to the A, an orange dot next to the B, a green dot next to the C and a white dot next to D. Red normally means limited understanding and need help, amber is getting there, green means they have understood it and white is expert meaning they could teach it someone else. It…

Voice recognition software
I am so excited to get started with Plickers! It would be fabulous if teachers could use voice recognition to ask questions on the fly. Something along the lines of Siri where you ask a question verbally and your app recognizes it and then allows you to scan your class for questions on the go! :)

Create and edit classes in the app
It would be nice to be able to create/edit classes in the app. That way, if you get a new student, it's easy to add them without signing into the website.

link multiple questions to a set
In the new plickers you work with sets, but I already have a lot of questions. Make it possible to add a question to a set in stead of typing it again. Something like adding it to a queue would be sufficent.

Restore large Plicker cards
There used to be a large (1 up) version of the Plicker cards that was available for 63 students. The file appears to have disappeared, and the Amazon version certainly doesn't have 63 codes. Given that I almost always teach more than 40 students in a lecture theatre setting this is a major constraint.
Could this file be made available again, please?

Bulk upload of questions
Someone has written a python program which uploads to plickers from a spreadsheet. Could this be done within the website? it would be a huge time saver

Add colour to expand number of cards
I think number if possible cards could be expanded using colour. Yes it would require a colour printer, but I would also need around 100 possible votes. Perhaps you can set it up so you can choose between plickers Classic (your current system) and plickers expanded (with a few coulors as a factor)

Get a max date range of 6 months instead of 1
Get a date range max of 6 months instead of 1 because most middle school teachers in Europe work by semester or term. That's why it would very useful to get an overview of several months results to evaluate the students.

Smaller cards with large print
It would be a lot easier for kindergarten students to have smaller cards to handle but with larger print to more easily recognize the letters and numbers.

Mini cards! 6 per page...
I teach PE and would love to have smaller cards since I need to use so many cards. A mini set of cards would allow me to use them all on a smaller space (instead of kids holding them up!)

Add option to show archived questions in Scoresheet
It would be great to have the "Show Archived Reports" option from Question History available in the Scoresheet view as well.

Include images in individual answers print-outs
When you print out individual answer sheets only the text is included. That makes the sheets pretty unusable if the question relies on the image. Can you fix it please?

Accessibility Features
If a sound could chime when a correct answer was recorded, the app would be more interactive for blind students. Part of what students love is seeing that their answer has been recorded in live view. Adding a simple chime would involve sight impaired participants. If you only had a chime for correct answers, rather than all answers, students could hear the feedback. One chime? We need to review the material. Lots of chimes? We got this one. - Thank you for creating and supporting this wonderful app!
