Slido’s new interface is now available for everyone 
Although it may look a bit different, its design provides an easier, quicker, and more intuitive experience. See below for answers to the most common questions regarding the changes.
Where do I create my polls?
All polls and Q&A are now listed under My interactions on the left side. Create your polls by selecting the + Add option and choosing your poll type.
How do I save my polls?
Slido polls now save automatically after a few seconds. You can also save immediately by hitting return – or by clicking anywhere outside of the text box.
Surveys are a bit different. Because they’re designed to include multiple polls, they only save after two poll questions are added.
Where is my Q&A?
Audience Q&A is now an Interaction that you add to your slido – just like a poll. Select the Q&A interaction at any point to view and manage the submitted questions.
What is the control bar for?
The control bar on the bottom of your Host mode is there to help manage your live interactions. Here you can easily see what poll is activated, hide or reveal the results for your audience, go to the next poll, and more.
How do I adjust my quiz timer?
Set and adjust your quiz timer directly above each quiz question. Or you can edit the timer within each question’s Poll settings.
Can I still test my Slido as a participant?
Yes, of course. Simply select the View as participant option in the control bar. Then choose to see the live participant experience in a mobile or desktop view. Select View as host whenever you’re finished testing.
Has the participant experience changed?
No. Participants join and interact with Slido in the same ways they always have. Their view and experience of Slido has not changed.
Does new Slido have all the same features?
For various reasons, there are some features not available in the new interface. Some will return better than before, while others are being deprecated. Learn more in our new Slido feature continuity guide.
Can I switch back to the old Slido interface?
The new interface is now available for all users. However for a time, you will be able to switch to the old interface. Just click the ? icon in the bottom left corner and select Switch to old Slido. You can switch back to new Slido at any time using the same menu.
Keep in mind that the option to switch to old Slido is only temporary. All users will be permanently switched to new Slido in the near future, but we’ll give you plenty of notice.
Where can I find help?
Select the ? icon and choose Help Center. There you’ll find guides for using the new interface. And if you can’t find what you need, choose the Chat with us option. Our Customer Care Team is available 24 hours a day, Monday-Friday.
