Zoom Polling - View all poll results at one time during a meeting

Zoom's polling is a great feature. One tip that most users don't know is that you can view all polls' results during a meeting. By default, as the host, you can easily share one poll's results during the meeting, but you can launch a web browser and see every poll's results. This may be handy when you need to discuss the poll results or schedule breakout rooms based on poll results.

Zoom Polls - Question Types

  1. True/False
  2. Multiple Choice

Note: one poll can contain multiple questions.
