The shortest month of the year hasn't slowed our product teams down from rolling out important updates and new features. Read on to find out what's changed in our Host mode, along with updates in presentation and video integrations.
🎛️ New functionality in Host mode
🗑️ Option to delete open text poll submissions
As part of the new Host mode feature continuity, we're reintroducing the option to delete Open text poll submissions. This is espeically useful for removing inappropriate, off-topic responses or answers containing confidential information.
A trash icon appears when hovering over a poll submission, making it easy to delete entries in both active and inactive polls.
🔄 Reset results in active poll
As we continue to improve our Host mode, we've listened to your feedback and added the ability to reset results in active polls.
You can find this option in the three-dot menu on the interaction card, enabling you to clear existing responses and start collecting new input.
