Most common 'simple' question type. Allow only 1 answer (single response) or multiple choice, where checkboxes are available.
In this example, we have a multiple choice question, with 7 brand names to choose from. And an 8th special one, that resets the others, because you can't select both a smartphone brand and "Don't have one". We use the column 'Exclusive' and ticked that box, so the last options becomes a radio button.
We choose a custom color scale, to overwrite the default green color. And sorted questions as defined. Other display options are: sorting on highest voting frequency or alphabetical order.
On multiple choice questions, you can set the maximum or exact numbers of answer options with the {max: } or {exact: } keyword. Read more about this.

Hints:
Make short answer options, so users can choose easily. Also the display in the smartphone and text alignment in the reporting graph looks better.
Don't ask negative or (double) denial questions. People tend to misread or misjudge such questions: Example: Which isn't a fruit that you don't like?
In this example, we defined a multipe choice question, with an image on the left besided the question.

Each vote counts equal, and in this result, the reporting shows percentages of the total 100%, with the horizontal bar as %.
You can also set to absolute numbers, and sort the most voted answers on top, or alphabetical. You can set it in the designer per question.

Hint:
To prevent bias when users still have to vote, when there are already answer results or votes visible to your audience, use the 'H' (hide/toggle chart) on your keyboard. It will hide the chart results, until you are satisfied.
If you run a quiz, we advice to use the autoclose timer and show the results only after the voting round is over. You can toggle the chart if you like with H in the keyboard. (see top left gear icon on live screen with other keyboard options).
Also, in quiz mode, you can choose to color the correct answers green, and wrong answers red, or different colour. Or you can keep all answers in the same color, and show the quiz results only at the end for the correct answers, marked with a 'correct' answer (thumb up) besides the answer text in the designer.

Question type that reports as a wordcloud or frequency.
Use this question type for opinions, suggestions or 'single' words to capture from your audience. For full long sentences, use the Q&A - Question and Answer Module.

Hint: You can use this question type also to ask for user credentials, like name, city, e-mail or phone number. Beware: the wordcloud shows them on screen (or in the Excel export). VoxVote voting is anonymous by default. And we don't want your audience credentials, nor email addresses. In case you want to identify your quiz winner names, use the nickname option in the voting devices on your smartphone screens.

Live chart screen. WordCloud

Most frequent words (profanity and course words, as well as stop words like the, is, me, we etc. are filtered out). are shown larger based on their frequency.

• If audience answer is given as Super Cool, both super and cool are counted. The "Super Cool" can be seen in the frequency tab (2nd tab above the wordcloud). In the excel data, full text without filtering is available. (paid or educational licence)
• For speed 'only' the top 300 words are used.
• On refresh (letter R, or the refresh control button), the WordCloud is redrawn. You can press R until you are satisfied. 
• Hint: Use this question as a great introduction or opening question, asking for example:
  What did you have for breakfast?
  Or
  from which city is my audience today?

For each possible answer set a weight. In this example, all numeric numbers between 1 and 10 have the same weight.
In this example, we also included an 11th option: 'Don't know' with a weight of 0. And 0 weights are excluded in the calculation for your average.

With always,sometimes,often,never kind of likert scales, you can set your 1 to 5 point weights or similar.

Live chart screen. Weighted Average.

All the users votes, combined, devided by the users with a weight > 0 sums up to this result. Here, 10+9*4+8*6+7*8+6*4+5*2+4+3 = 185 / 26 users = 7.12 average.

Define your answer options, and the audience should rank them with 'most' importance. Double ranks are not allowed. In this example we defined 7 answer options, and each user can rank them with number 1 to 7. If your audience only ranks only a few items, the remaining can be left blank with rank 0.

Hint: give an instruction in the instruction text for your audience.

Add on a answer label {wave: red} or {wave: yellow} or another color name, and based on the given answer, the phones will light up in that color. Very cool feature in crowds to see the results in a glance.

There is nothing in the designer to setup, but you can ask your audience to fill in a nickname. (in Quiz, we recommend it).
To have a much as unbiased votes, anonymous voting is the default. A nickname or your city name could be a simple way to tell your host / event organizer your successfully joined the voting session.

Nickname overview screen.

On the chart screen (live or preview), there is on the right side a icon, which opens a screen on top of your graph. It will show and count the number of users connected in this session. (all who entered a PIN, on this event project.)
Double names are grouped, and a count is displayed. Empty names are shown as - Anonymous -
Use the refresh button to show the updated list. When you think the majority of your audience is connected, start your vote. (letter S on keyboard, or use the controls on top).
