About this app

Plickers lets you poll your class for free, without the need for student devices. Just give each student a card (a “paper clicker”), and use your Android smartphone or tablet to scan them to do instant checks-for-understanding, exit tickets, and impromptu polls. Best of all, your data is automatically saved, student-by-student, at plickers.com.

Happy teaching!

Ratings and reviews

This app used to be incredibly helpful for quick formative assessment but the recent changes have made it incredibly cumbersome. I can no longer add questions from my phone, and my phone is unable to show me individual student responses in real time. I have used this app for years and advocated for it as way to provide useful formative data. I am very disappointed with the recent changes

New version is clumsy and counter intuitive. The only update needed was a new coat of paint, but the devs took it way too far. Example, clicking on a question opens up a side menu for more options, but clicking on the right side arrow of a question takes you to a new page for options. How does that make sense? I would honestly consider upgrading based on the old version, but new version makes even using it for free a tough choice.

Not happy with this new version/upgrade! Why do I need to click "Upload Plicker" again then click "Open" before I could go to my library, where in fact the app is already in my phone! I couldn't find where to enter my students' name ,compared from the old version, it was so easy to use and very convenient.
