Fun poll questions for work: Polls your team will actually answer.
32 fun poll questions for work: a poll of the week for Teams, Slack or the group chat, or questions for a weekly meeting. Quick polls, team questions, food fights and check-ins.
Each one asks people to name something, so lots of people give the same short answers. Ask them out loud, or send a list as a survey and play your team’s answers as a game.
Free for up to 6 phones. No card needed.

Questions people ask
What makes a good poll of the week for work?
A question everyone can answer in a few seconds, about something the whole office shares, like the best food for a team lunch or the hardest part of a Monday. Post it on Monday, and share the most common answers on Friday.
How is this different from a normal poll?
A normal poll gives people choices. These ask people to name something, so the answers are in their own words. The answers given most become a board you can play: two teams guess what the team said.
Can I use them as voting questions?
Yes. Add three or four choices and post the question as a poll in Teams or Slack. Or leave it open: answers in people’s own words make a better board to play.
Can I post them in Teams or Slack?
Yes. Post one a day as a message, or share a list as a survey link: it opens on any phone or laptop, with no account. Or connect Slack, Microsoft Teams or Google Chat, and Crowdboard posts a question of the week for you. Colleagues make three guesses on their phones, and the board goes up on the day you pick.
Are the answers anonymous?
Yes. Survey answers carry no name, so people can be honest. The board shows only the answers and how many people gave each.
How many people can play?
Any number of people can watch and shout answers. Up to 6 phones can buzz in on Free, 20 on Pro and 40 on Team.
