Interaction Tools (App)

The interaction tools allow the audience to interact during your live sessions. This article explains how to set this up and add a live chat, polls, and Q&A's to your session.

How to set it up

First, you need to make sure the interaction tools in the app are enabled. You can do so by following the next steps:

  1. Open the admin panel.

  2. Click 'Settings' > 'App settings' > 'Layout'

  3. Under chat options, put 'Enable the usage of session interaction tools' on 'Enable'

  4. Save Changes.

Now your interaction tools are enabled and you can add new polls, chats, and Q&A's via the app.
