📌
Results page refresh
- Pin on image responses have been added to the results page, accessible to all users. Read more about the Pin on Image slide here.
👍
Reactions for the whole presentation
- reactions in your Mentimeter presentations are now simpler and unified which makes managing reactions much easier. Here's what's new:
  • Turn reactions on or off for your entire Menti from one spot.
  • No more per-slide reaction customization.
  • Reactions are counted on each slide, even with Menti-wide settings.
🛝
New design when adding slides
- making it easy to get an overview of our slide offerings when creating a new presentation. Head over to Mentimeter and create a new presentation to see it in action!
🖥️
Presentation grid view
- is now added to your dashboard on the "My Presentation" and "Shared with me" pages. This new grid layout shows presentations with enhanced thumbnails instead of the traditional list format, offering a more visual browsing experience. (PS: if you prefer the classic list view, you can easily switch back using icons in the upper right corner)
New Free plan out
- which allows you to create as many presentations as you like. Gather input from up to 50 unique participants each month, with no limits on the number of Question, Quiz, and Content slides. Exceed your limit? The current presentation won't be interrupted. Want more? Simply wait 30 days for a reset, or level up with an upgrade. Read more about our new free offering here.
🎟️
New free workspace role: Member lite
- a free workspace role that doesn’t occupy a license in Basic, Pro or Enterprise workspace. Member lite can collect responses from up to 50 participants monthly and create Mentis with free features. The new Member lite role enables organizations to include team members into their workspace, enhancing the team experience and asset sharing. By default, we allow 20 Member lite roles per workspace. You can read more about it here.
⚙️
New team setting
- we added a new permission setting that allows Pro and Enterprise workspaces to control who can invite new Member lite users to their workspace (admins only or everyone in the workspace).
🌐
Global presentation reactions
- reactions are now the same across a Menti — instead of per slide. This means that you turn them on and off for a full Menti instead of per slide. Add, remove or change which reactions you want in your Menti from one place! To learn more about reactions, check out this help article.
🗂️
Responses tab in results
- you can now view a detailed breakdown of the data collected in your presentation in the Responses tab on the results page. We are confident that this will allow you to better understand your responses, and in turn, your participants. We currently support multiple choice, word cloud, open ended, scales, quiz, ranking and pin on image. Read more about results here.
💽
Custom Data Retention
- our new custom data retention policy determines how long presentation data (votes, Q&A) is stored within Mentimeter, before being permanently deleted. With this feature, Enterprise customers can set a data retention policy on their workspace (for example 6 or 12 months). Please note: this feature can only be applied to workspaces with help from the Mentimeter team. If you want to learn more, reach out to hello@mentimeter.com.
📽️ Add more videos to your Menti
- you can now use Vimeo links in the video slide! To use it, just add a Vimeo link the same way as you would add a YouTube link.
🗳️ Voting on Groups for Open-Ended Questions
- you can now allows participants to vote on groups in open-ended questions. After collecting open-ended responses, simply enable the group voting option. Participants can then view grouped responses and submit their votes. Note: in order for this to work, you must have the AI tools turned on.
☁️ Word Cloud: New addition for Beta users on the Results page
- our most popular question type is now added to the Results page, where you can easily see how many time each word was mentioned. (Want to join the Mentimeter Beta Program to help us build a better Mentimeter experience ? Opt in here)
🔒 Enhanced Anonymity in Excel Exports
- Workspace admins now have the option to restrict Excel exports. This update, aimed at our Enterprise plan customers, ensures that exports are disallowed if a presentation has fewer than 10 participants. Q&A participants are counted separately, maintaining flexibility in varied presentation formats. Additionally, timestamps have been removed from the Excel export to protect participant privacy. This change is crucial for maintaining participant anonymity, especially in smaller groups.
👥 "Shared with Me" Update
- Presentations shared with you will soon appear in a dedicated "Shared with Me" area, decluttering "My Presentations". This logical separation aims to reduce confusion, as shared presentations have limited actions (like move, delete). Note: This change applies only to Pro and Enterprise users; basic users continue with view-only access through email links.
🌅 Simplifying our slide offering
- as a part of our commitment to making Mentimeter more intuitive we have decided to retire the Slide Library. These slides haven’t given our users the value we thought, and usage has been low since release. We will instead focus our efforts on making our most popular slides even better. Read more in our blog post here.
🚁 SSO Log-In Troubleshooting Guide
- error messages that previously were difficult to understand and decode, are now updated to human-readable copy, with an error code and a unique Request ID (which can help us troubleshoot the issues quicker internally).
📱
Mobile editing improvements
- we have enhanced the mobile editor for on-the-go adjustments. The updated editor now works better for smaller screens, making those last-minute changes easy - no matter where you are.
🎨
Hover to see themes
- you can now simply hover over the themes to see a live preview of what your Menti will look like. Themes are found under design, and can be customized with fonts, colors and even your own logo!
🫱🏼‍🫲🏽
Member Lite Role
- we have enabled selected Menti accounts to add free users into their teams without having to pay for an extra license. Member lite users have their individual limitations of a free plan while being able to create Menti in a shared workspace, co-edit presentations and surveys alongside other members and access results in shared Menti.
📊
