great to have a completely anonymous mode. In Demo mode you can see the students letter response.
I told the students that they could answer anonymously but I can see the letter response right above their card.

Have a "Hide answers" button.
This allows students to think/answer the question BEFORE seeing answers that will guide their thinking. Too often (especially in math, what I teach), the MC solutions guide student thinking, rather than the problem guiding thinking. I want to be able to hide the answers so that students are not working backwards and guessing based on the MC answers.

Display correct answers with color only
I'd like to be able to display the correct answers (by color only) so that a student knows if they are correct or not, and cannot peak at someone else's answer.

Changing Views
It would be great if there was a way that on the app you could change back and forth from the student view to the graph view on the computer. That way you don't have to be going back and forth to the computer switching the views. The student view is great so kids can see if their answer was recorded and the kids enjoy seeing the graph view.

Print questions
It would be great to have a way to print a hard copy of questions that we have used with plickers. This would allow our students to reveiw the questions on their own as well.

Allow questions to be organized in sessions and rank student scores per session.
My students (age 12-16) want to know who had the best score. I could copy their answers from the question reports to a speadsheet but that takes me several minutes. Why not have this option on the website so I can give rewards?

calendar!
I would find it very useful if I could schedule plickers for a particular day. I like to have my questions prepared ahead of time, but it's so awkward scrolling through all of my questions.

Different sized qr codes
be able to print at least 4 QR codes to a page. Or have them the size of "name tag" Avery sticker labels to stick to the back of other answer methods such as personal white boards.

Hi friends,
You can print 4 QR codes to a page by printing the standard set with 2 pages per 8.5 × 11″ sheet. Since each standard page has 2 Plickers QR codes on them, when you print 2 per page, it will automatically have 4 codes per page for you!
Best,
Jenn

Find a way that students can't cheat and peak at each other's card
I teach 6th grade and the students glance at each other's cards. It would be great to come up with a way that students can't cheat.

Allow for student groups to be created from the class list
We have a whole year group set up as a class and we would like to then pick from that class a group for maths, a group for English, etc. so that the students then only need 1 plickers card to cover all of the subjects and the teachers create their groups from the same generic class list.

Two sided cards for one student.
Allowing ABCDEFG(H). This would allow testing of simple music notation.

A way to embed the live graph into Powerpoint
With a direct embed into Powerpoint, there would be no clunky switches from presentation to plickers' site. The LiveWeb add-in for Powerpoint embeds the webpage, but is far too inelegant to the point that switching is often better.

Create a faster way to start to do on-the-fly polling, without setting up a question
As a quick feedback tool, I would like to scan the room for student responses based on a question from outside Plickers. I'd like to just collect the data without having to set up a question (or multiple questions... e.g. reviewing a 25Q MC quiz)

Hi Plickers friends!
We actually do have a way to collect data without setting up a question — you can simply tap the [+] button to create a new question, then tap the correct answer letter(s) and go ahead and tap the camera icon to start scanning the “empty” question.
What I’m really hearing here is that you’d like to have a faster way to do on-the-fly polling, and that is something we’d very much like to work on. To that end, I’m modifying this idea title just a bit to specify that!
We’re looking forward to changing up a lot of the mobile interface to make Plickers more intuitive and easy to use over the next few weeks!
Thanks!

Add some type of game integration. (Gamify Plickers)
Qwizdom and Socrative both have games that are played when answering question. It is merely a graphical display of what students are answering the most positive questions. It will require that you add the ability to make quizzes first. An example of game integration is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEsoFaubtS0

Sync with Skyward
Most states are using Skyward as their grading system. If plickers was able to export names/ID numbers and input data results for grading--you'd have a whole bunch of ecstatic teachers!

nice feature you have here. Can you get a spell check or auto correct option for when we are typing in questions? thanks!
