Pricing

It would be great if the cheapest plan didn’t require you to pay $60

Moderation is paywalled

Clearly they don’t care about the safety of their potential customers if they aren’t allowing basic moderation for Q&A without forking money over for the privilege of not being called slurs at events.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for your feedback. The Slido free Basic plan offers some moderation features for Q&A, such as the ability to archive or delete questions at any time during your session. We’ve also integrated a profanity filter to help event organizers maintain a positive environment. If you’d like to approve every question before it goes live, this feature is available on our paid plans. However, this level of protection isn’t typically necessary for most events. If you’d like to explore the advanced moderation features included in our paid plans, you can take advantage of our 30-day money-back guarantee to see if it meets your needs.

It’s just a polling app

Nothing revolutionary. Customer service is nice but not willing to work with you on the extreme prices. Not worth it, there are cheaper apps out there that perform the same type of functionality.

Response from developer

Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re not quite sure what you mean by “extreme prices.” We strive to make Slido better every day, and when you purchase our product, you receive all upcoming updates and improvements. There are so many of them 🤩 Feel free to check out our community at https://community.slido.com/

Not useful, unless you actually need another app on your phone

Great interface, but it is basically the same as just going to the website in your browser.I simply added this website as a link on my honescreen.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for your feedback. You are correct, but since many users search for Slido in the App Store, we wanted to ensure they can easily find and access the app whenever they need it.

Great tool!

Very aggravating. Gets stuck on top question.

I think it limits the participants. Gotta be something better than this piece of crap.

Response from developer

Thank you for your honest feedback. Could you please provide more details about what went wrong and what could be improved? Feel free to reach out directly at support@slido.com. Thank you very much.

No Admin Control

Works well as a user but it would be much better if you could use the app as an admin to moderate Q&A. Unless I’m missing something?

Should allow downvotes

The app is decent, but you should be able to downvote stupid questions.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for your feedback. As an event or meeting host, you can choose whether to enable or disable downvotes for Q&A questions. In your case, it appears that downvotes were disabled, but this feature is available if needed. I hope this helps clarify things.

Awful

Completely unusable. “Server is taking too long to respond”

Not opening

Any suggestions when the app is just stuck on home page?

Very basic

Why can’t I login as admin with the registered account directly on the app!
Everytime it redirects me to the webpage and even once you close this web page the app becomes useless.
Why you din’t add the admin login feature in the app itself ?!!

Response from developer

Hello, Bebo. Thank you for your feedback and sorry for the struggle. We used to have admin opening inside the iOS app but it was loading very slow since that is technically a separate app. I just asked my team to revisit that as we did some changes to our app in last quarter that could help this one. Feel free to send a reply to experience@slido.com. Thanks.

Not a good app

Would be far better as a native app not a web app.

Can’t give it a zero

Passcodes accepted sporadically

Response from developer

Thanks for your review. We are sorry for your experience but would you be able to clarify what exactly is the issue? Feel free to edit your response or send your feedback to experience@slido.com. We are not sure we really understand what went wrong. Thank you.

No landscape on iPad.

[Review/Update] I noted this app lacks iPad support. Developers advise using Safari on iPad and going webapp of Slido. Well, sorry but that’s a bit clunky. I took my iPad AND phone to a conference which chose to use using Slido, and was quite disappointed hence three stars. Please update to iPad compatibility thanks.

Helps us greatly

An amazing crowd participation app, we use it for internal work meetings and get great honest answers from our employees.

Best audience interaction app ever!

Nice and seamless

Hybrid

What is the point of wrapping the website in an app webview and not provide additional functionality. It loads really slow and is just like a slow version of the web site.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. It is true that native apps have additional functionalities most of the time in comparison to web apps. For Slido, the majority of users use our web app as a main channel where we invest most of our time so for now, the native apps are exactly the same in terms of functionality. Is there some functionality you were missing that would make your experience in the app even better? Feel free to edit your response or send your feedback to experience@slido.com. Thank you.

Needs better admin support

I love this tool, it’s changed the way I teach my class. However, the limited administrator support makes it hard for me to pace around room and effectively manage what’s happening.

As it stands it’s just a web wrapper for the admin, which means I can easily close the window and lose access to what I need if I tap “Done”.

No point in having the app for admins

If your a participant maybe this app is for you.

If your an admin don’t bother. The app simply pushes you to the web browser as there is no native support for the features for an admin in the app and it doesn’t even hide the fact it’s just loading a web page.

Please develop a native app rather than loading a web page!

Still No iPhone X screen size support?

Seriously? iPhone X has been around for almost 3 years now and you're still not scaling to it's screen?
