Product Updates - November 2024

📲 - Based on user feedback, we’ve made significant adjustments to the QR code placement during presentations: Users can now move the QR code dynamically during live presentations. Simply hover over it to reveal arrows and adjust its position! Want to learn more about the QR-code in Menti? Look no further

⚡ - We’ve improved the reliability of AI-driven summarization! We’ve started provisioning Lambdas that run continuously, avoiding idle states.Execution times are now faster and smoother, ensuring a better summarization experience. Check out the AI features in Menti here.

🔑 - you can now invite others to your Menti with tailored access levels: Edit (Pro and Enterprise users only), Comment, or View. This feature applies to presentations in "My Presentations" and is available to Pro and Enterprise users. Basic, Free, and Member Lite collaborators can be granted Comment or View access. Read more about collaboration here.

🔌 - allowing for seamless embedding of any Mentimeter slide directly into PowerPoint, with full editing capabilities via a shortcut to the Mentimeter Editor. Say goodbye to switching windows during presentations—everything now works smoothly within PowerPoint. Read more about the new PowerPoint plugin here.

🖥️ — one simple Esc takes you directly to the editor! And for the occasions you want to exit fullscreen, you can use the toolbar or hotkey F just like before. Read more about keyboard shortcuts here.

🎨 - titles now scale smartly, use a lighter font, and have a fixed height to avoid crowding visuals. We've also adjusted text sizes, spacing, and margins around content, giving slides a cleaner, more open feel. Part of our Slides’ New Look initiative, these updates enhance readability and visual balance across all slides. Check it out in your account!

👀 - we've released a new, intuitive view-only editor! This updated view provides a smoother experience for viewing shared Mentis, enabling collaboration through comments and expanding sharing options. Read more about collaboration and how to add comments in Menti.

- When someone leaves a comment, invites you to a presentation, or you got results on a recent Menti you will now be informed through our in-app notification center. You will find it in the top right corner of your Home view and it will be turned on by default for all Mentimeter users. Read more about comments & notifications here.

- Previously, images on quiz slides were only shown on top of the slide during countdown and voting, which has caused problems with options or content sometimes being covered. To improve the experience, we've removed this functionality and are now supporting the regular "image layouts" on quiz slides—just like on all other slides. Read more about quizzes here!

- The Requests page is a centralized hub for admins to manage join requests and Member Lite roles and upgrades. Admins can review and approve all types of requests on the Requests Page with a single click! Read more here.

👍 - reactions in your Mentimeter presentations are now simpler and unified which makes managing reactions much easier. Here's what's new:

🛝 - 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!

🖥️ - 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)

✨ - 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.

🎟️ - 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.

⚙️ - 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).

🌐 - 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.

🗂️ - 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.

💽 - 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.
