PollUnit Is Now Available in Hungarian

PollUnit Is Now Available in Hungarian

We're happy to announce that PollUnit is now available in Hungarian.

From now on, organizers and participants can use PollUnit in »Magyar«, making it even easier to create polls, surveys, photo contests, and voting projects for Hungarian-speaking communities.

Why Hungarian?

PollUnit is used by organizations, schools, companies, associations, and communities all over the world. By adding Hungarian, we continue our goal of making online voting and surveys accessible to as many people as possible.

Whether you need a poll maker for quick decisions, a professional survey tool, or a platform for photo contests, rankings, and collaborative voting, PollUnit now offers the complete experience in Hungarian. Organizers and participants alike can interact with the platform in their native language, making projects more accessible and easier to use.

Automatic Language Detection

PollUnit automatically detects the preferred language of each visitor whenever possible. Users can also switch languages manually at any time.

This means international projects can easily be used by participants from different countries without additional setup.

More Than Just a Translation

The Hungarian version includes the complete PollUnit interface, allowing organizers and participants to use all major features in Hungarian.

As always, new features added to PollUnit will also become available in Hungarian.

Growing Internationally

Hungarian joins our growing list of supported languages, helping even more people organize fair, transparent, and easy-to-use voting projects.

We're continuously improving our translations and welcome feedback from native speakers. If you notice anything that could be translated better, we'd love to hear from you.

Try PollUnit in Hungarian

Simply open PollUnit and select »Magyar« as your preferred language or let PollUnit detect it automatically.

We hope our Hungarian users enjoy the new localization!

Passkeys in PollUnit: Passwordless Login and Secure Two-Factor Authentication

We're excited to introduce Passkeys to PollUnit.

Passkeys make signing in faster, easier, and significantly more secure than traditional passwords. Whether you want to replace your password completely or simply strengthen your account security, PollUnit now gives you both options.

What Are Passkeys?

Passkeys are a modern authentication method based on the WebAuthn standard. Instead of remembering a password, you authenticate using your device – typically with Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello, Android biometrics, or your device PIN.

Behind the scenes, a cryptographic key pair is created. The public key is stored by PollUnit, while the private key remains securely protected in your Passkey provider. During sign-in, the private key is never sent to PollUnit, making Passkeys highly resistant to phishing attacks and password theft.

Why Use Passkeys?

Passkeys offer several advantages over traditional passwords:

  • Faster sign-in with Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello, or your device PIN
  • Protection against phishing attacks
  • No passwords to remember or reuse
  • No shared secrets stored on servers
  • Strong cryptographic authentication
  • Support across modern browsers and operating systems

Two Ways to Use Passkeys in PollUnit

Unlike many services, PollUnit lets you decide how you want to use Passkeys.

Passwordless Login

You can sign in using only your Passkey. No password is required.

This provides the fastest and most convenient login experience while improving security at the same time.

Passkeys as Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

If you prefer to continue using your password, you can use a Passkey as your second authentication factor.

This combines the familiarity of password-based authentication with the strong phishing protection offered by Passkeys.

Whether you're ready to go completely passwordless or want to introduce Passkeys gradually, PollUnit supports both approaches.

Works with SSO and Social Login

Passkey-based two-factor authentication isn't limited to PollUnit passwords.

If your organization uses its own Single Sign-On (SSO) solution, you can still protect your PollUnit account with a Passkey as a second authentication factor. The same applies when signing in with Google, Facebook, or GitHub.

This gives you an additional layer of phishing-resistant security regardless of how you authenticate with PollUnit.

Even if your identity provider doesn't support Passkeys yet, you can still benefit from Passkey-based protection inside PollUnit. This allows organizations to improve account security immediately without changing their existing authentication infrastructure.

Archive Instead of Delete: A Better Way to Manage Options

Archive Instead of Delete: A Better Way to Manage Options

We're excited to introduce a new feature in PollUnit: Option Archiving.

Until now, organizers had to decide whether to keep an option active or delete it entirely. With archiving, there is now a third option.

Archived options remain part of the PollUnit, but they are excluded from rankings and evaluations. Their votes are ignored, while all data remains available and can be restored at any time.

Why Archive Options?

Deleting an option permanently removes it from your workflow. Archiving allows you to hide options from the current ranking without losing submissions, files, comments, or voting history.

This makes it easier to manage large polls, contests, and long-running voting processes.

Ideal for Photo Contests

A common use case is a photo contest with many submissions.

Imagine a contest with 500 photos. After reviewing the results, you decide that only the best 200 photos should continue to the next phase.

Instead of deleting the remaining photos, simply archive them. The contest becomes much easier to manage, while all submissions remain available for later review.

Because archived options no longer influence rankings, organizers can gradually reduce the number of active entries and focus attention on the strongest candidates.

More Flexible Than Starting Over

Some organizers want to conduct voting in multiple rounds. Until now, this often required creating a new PollUnit or resetting votes, which means losing the previous voting results.

Archiving offers a practical alternative. Instead of starting over, you can simply archive the options that should no longer participate and continue working with the remaining entries.

This preserves all submissions and allows you to narrow down the field without deleting data.

Additional Use Cases

  • Feature request and product roadmap voting
  • Employee idea management
  • Award competitions and jury selections
  • Logo, design, and naming contests
  • Event and meeting planning
  • Community suggestion platforms
  • Project prioritization and decision making
  • Candidate shortlisting and application reviews
  • Bulk Archive and Restore

Managing large numbers of options is easy.

Options can be archived directly from their context menu or from the evaluation area.

The evaluation area now includes multi-select functionality with bulk actions, allowing you to archive or restore multiple options at once.

Keep Your Data, Reduce Complexity

Archiving is a simple but powerful addition to PollUnit. It helps organizers focus on relevant options while keeping all submissions available for future reference.

No data loss. No unnecessary duplicates. Just a cleaner and more flexible workflow.

Names of voters and anonymized names

Until now, there was only one setting that controlled two things at once: whether voters have to provide a name, and whether voters' names are anonymized – namely »Anonymize voters«.

Many users who simply wanted to turn off the name requirement understandably often couldn't find this setting. That's why we've split the two functions into two separate settings:

  • Voters must provide a name
  • Anonymize voters

The »Anonymize voters« setting anonymizes all automatically collected personal data of voters. This includes, for example, names and email addresses. This information is also hidden in exports.

In contrast, the »Voters must provide a name« setting does not affect the visibility or anonymization of data. If the name requirement is disabled, voters can simply participate without providing a name. Existing names, email addresses, and other personal data remain visible.

Data collected through custom fields is not anonymized. Since the content of these fields is defined individually by the poll creator, it always remains visible and is not automatically anonymized.

We hope this makes the settings clearer for most users!

Import Text Options from Excel, CSV, or Text Files

Import Text Options from Excel, CSV, or Text Files

Creating large votings or surveys with many text options used to be tedious: typing options manually, copying them, or inserting them line by line. With the new »Option Import« feature, you can now import prepared data directly from files.

You can now upload the following file formats:

  • Excel files (.xlsx)
  • CSV files (.csv)
  • Text files (.txt)

The importer scans each row and automatically uses the first non-empty column and, in text files, each line as the option text. This makes it possible to create hundreds of options within seconds.

Ideal for Large Votings

The new feature is especially useful for:

  • large text votings
  • name lists
  • topic or idea collections
  • prioritization and rating lists
  • contests with many entries

Instead of creating options manually, you can directly import existing lists from Excel or other tools.

Perfect for Votings in Surveys and Likert Scales

The import works not only for classic votings, but also within survey steps containing text options.

For example, you can quickly import prepared:

  • Likert scales
  • rating options
  • answer lists
  • A/B or multiple ratings

Especially for more complex surveys, this saves a lot of time and reduces errors caused by manual copying.

New in Surveys: More Flexibility for A/B Comparisons and a new Gallery Layout

Previously, A/B comparisons within a survey were somewhat limited. Options were displayed one below the other, not randomized, and images were only shown as small thumbnails. This could lead to order bias and made visual comparison harder. Now you can combine multiple A/B comparisons in a single survey – clear, fair, and much more visual.

Randomized Order in Ratings

When creating a rating step in a survey, you can now randomize all options directly in step 1. Each participant will see their own randomly ordered list or gallery. This means:

  • No bias from fixed ordering
  • Fairer results
  • Better comparability

This is especially useful for design decisions, UX tests, or content variations.

New Gallery View for Images

Another new feature is the gallery view for images. Instead of a list with small thumbnails, you can now:

  • display images large and in focus
  • present them in a visually appealing way
  • put the content front and center

Titles, descriptions, etc. intentionally take a back seat – ideal when visual impact matters most.

This view is not only suitable for A/B comparisons, but also perfect for design feedback and large image collections. You can configure these features individually per survey step. When creating a new rating step, you’ll find a small preview, layout options (gallery or list), and the ability to randomize options.

Ask Quick Questions: Mini Polls for Instant Feedback

Ask Quick Questions: Mini Polls for Instant Feedback

Sometimes you don’t need a long survey. Sometimes a single question is enough.

With our new Quick Question, you can capture instant feedback in seconds – without registration, long forms, or barriers for your participants.

The Quick Question is ideal when you want to collect spontaneous feedback, a quick opinion, or a short vote. Your participants can respond with just one click, and you can see the results immediately. In addition to a tendency between two options, answers can also be given as a single choice (one option) or as multiple choice (multiple options).

Mini polls with maximum impact

The Quick Question reduces surveys to the essentials: one question and an intuitive way to answer.

For example, you can:

  • collect a quick opinion on a topic
  • gather feedback about an article or presentation
  • prepare a decision
  • run spontaneous feedback polls

Example: An online magazine asks its readers: »Did this article convince you?«

Readers move a slider between agreement and disagreement and show their tendency – not just a simple yes or no. This provides more nuanced insights into the opinion of your audience.

Perfect for websites, blogs and presentations

The Quick Question is especially well suited for embedding on websites. This allows you to involve your visitors directly in your content:

  • below blog articles
  • in online magazines
  • on landing pages
  • during presentations or live events
  • on community or project pages

Thanks to its simple format, interaction happens effortlessly. Visitors don’t need to install anything or create an account — they can vote immediately.

See results instantly

As with all PollUnit votes, the results are automatically collected and visualized. This allows you to immediately see how your audience thinks.

This makes the Quick Question especially useful for:

  • media and publishers
  • events and presentations
  • product feedback
  • community voting
  • spontaneous opinion polls

Created in seconds and ready to use

You can create a Quick Question in just a few seconds:

  1. Write your question
  2. Share the link or embed it
  3. Collect answers and view the results

This format is perfect for situations where speed, simplicity, and participation matter most.

Making PollUnit Accessible in More Languages

Over the past months we have started a major internationalization initiative to make PollUnit more accessible to people around the world.

PollUnit is used by organizations, companies, clubs, and communities in many different countries. While English has always been available, we noticed that more and more users prefer working in their native language when creating polls, surveys, and contests.

To support this, we began a large effort to translate and localize PollUnit across the entire platform.

Expanding language support

This initiative focuses on translating not only the interface but also our tutorials, blog posts, help pages, and feature descriptions. Our goal is that users can understand PollUnit and its features in their own language – from the first visit to advanced use cases.

In the coming months, more and more content will also become available in additional languages. PollUnit is now available in the following languages:

  • German
  • English
  • French
  • Indonesian
  • Italian
  • Dutch
  • Polish
  • Portuguese
  • Romanian
  • Spanish
  • Czech
  • Turkish

…and more to come.

Why this matters

PollUnit is used for many different purposes – from scheduling meetings and collecting feedback to running photo contests or design votes. Making these tools accessible in more languages helps teams collaborate more easily and removes barriers for participants.

For many people, voting or participating in a poll is much more comfortable when the interface are in their native language.

A continuous effort

Internationalization is not a one-time project but an ongoing process. As PollUnit evolves and new features are released, we will continue expanding translations and improving existing ones.

If you notice something that could be translated better in your language, feel free to let us know – feedback from our users helps us improve PollUnit for everyone.

Manage Your Team Together with Other Admins

Manage Your Team Together with Other Admins

Managing polls in a team just got easier. PollUnit organizations now support organization admins, allowing you to delegate administrative tasks within your team.

What is a PollUnit organization?

A PollUnit organization allows teams to collaborate under a shared workspace. Members of an organization can work together on polls, contests, and surveys while sharing features such as branding, plan limits, and features.

Organizations are especially useful for companies, clubs, agencies, or event teams that create polls regularly and want to manage them centrally.

New: Organization admins

Until now, only the organization owner could manage members. With the new admin role, you can now assign selected members as organization admins.
Organization admins can invite new members to the organization and help manage the team structure. This makes it much easier to manage larger teams and distribute responsibilities.

This small change can make a big difference for teams that use PollUnit regularly. Especially if you manage multiple organizations as an owner, each with its own members and admins.

Mark locations, areas, and routes directly in surveys

With our latest update, we are expanding the PollUnit survey type with an especially versatile feature:

From now on, you can add a new map step to your multi-step surveys. Participants can mark a location, draw an area, or sketch a route directly on an interactive map.

This extension makes PollUnit even more flexible and is ideal for anyone who wants to collect geographic information or make joint decisions with a spatial reference.

Why a map step?

Many votes and surveys have a clear spatial context: Where should an event take place? Which districts need special attention? How do favorite routes, commuting paths, or danger spots run?

With the new map step, there is no need for laborious descriptions of locations. Instead, participants visually, intuitively, and precisely mark what they mean.

What can the new survey step do?

1. Mark locations

Let your participants set a point, for example for:

  • potential meeting points
  • desired locations
  • danger spots in road traffic
  • favorite places

2. Draw areas

Ideal for all scenarios where an area is relevant:

  • district boundaries
  • potential construction areas
  • garden or property areas
  • zoning

3. Mark routes

Perfect for:

  • commuting routes
  • running and cycling routes
  • route guidance for events
  • problem points on daily routes

Participants can freely draw very easily using click or drag-and-drop.

Evaluation made easy

All markings appear in your results overview, aggregated on a shared map, clearly distinguishable by color and viewable individually.

For further analysis, you can export the points, areas, and routes. For each point you receive a latitude and longitude, enabling you to use the data in other applications as well.
