There are some new features available in the latest Vevox (Polling Tool) update that we wanted to draw your attention to.
For those unfamiliar with Vevox, the polling software can be used to ask students questions and for them to respond live using their mobile devices. For information on how to use Vevox, see our webpage.
The update includes:
- Scheduled Surveys and Quizzes. You can make surveys and quizzes available outside of lecture rooms with automatic start and end times (note that the session needs to be started in Vevox for this to work).
- Feedback for Quizzes and Surveys. You can provide feedback to participants taking quizzes and surveys.
- AI Question Helper. The AI tools will now suggest answer options based on your questions as well as creating a wider range of questions.
- Spin the wheel. A fun way of selecting a random option from a list, for example a list of revision topics, or group names for delivering presentations. Note that the person running the poll controls the wheel (not participants).
Take a look at Vevox’s latest product update: October 2025 for the full update.
