Frustrated

I used to use this two years ago. Trying to use it again but the app won’t open. Keeps closing when I click open. There is no update showing up. Is this a defunct app now? I liked using it.

Literally life saving!!

When I say I might have quit my job without this app, I mean it!! I teacher 6 classes everyday (200 kids in total) so grading all their work takes forever! Plickers cuts my grading time by 2/3 and gives me instant data on what kids know and don’t know. It’s a must have for any stressed out teacher!!!

Amazing Customer Service!

Been using Plickers for a while now and love it within my classroom. However I’m writing this review to give a special shoutout to the support team, who go above and beyond.
Great app, useful product and great, helpful support team. All you could ask for!
Thank you to support agent Joe!

Message kept popping up

Use to enjoy using this APP with students last year. Tried bringing it back to classroom this year however can’t sign in through APP. A message asking me to continue kept popping up and disappearing as if glitched.
I tried uninstalling and installing, did not solve the problem.

Updated review

Update: it’s working now like before! Awesome. My students really liked it!

I haven’t used this app in awhile but was going to have my ESL students answer questions to engage them in answering without computers. I made sure I had all updates on app and phone and it won’t open. Just crashes from start. Can’t use.

FAQ

What does Plickers do?

Plickers enables educators to poll their classes and perform instant checks for understanding without needing students to have their own devices. It uses scannable cards that students hold up, and the teacher scans these cards with their smartphone or tablet.

How does Plickers work?

Each student is given a unique 'paper clicker' card. The teacher then uses the Plickers app on their iPhone or iPad to scan the cards, instantly capturing student responses. This data is automatically saved to the plickers.com website.

Is Plickers free to use?

Yes, the core functionality of Plickers, including polling your class and scanning student cards, is free. The app does contain advertisements.

What are the main benefits of using Plickers?

The primary benefit is conducting quick, informal assessments and polls without the need for expensive student devices or complex technology. It provides instant feedback and automatically saves student data for easy review.

Can I access my data from anywhere?

Yes, all the data collected through the Plickers app is automatically saved student-by-student at plickers.com. This allows you to access your class data from any internet-connected device.
