PointSolutions FAQ
Is PointSolutions free?
Yes, PointSolutions is completely free and it doesn't have any in-app purchases or subscriptions.
Is PointSolutions legit?
⚠️ The PointSolutions app has poor ratings and negative feedback. Users seem unsatisfied with its performance or features.
For the amount of money you have to pay for this subscription, it works absolutely awfully. I am being logged out while using the app, getting errors for no reason and am losing points for my class. Only am using it because I have to, but it doesn’t matter since my grade is not getting better because of it
Excellent for Town Meeting remote sessions
We use it in our town for Town Meeting, there are 288 of us in Town Meeting and it’s been working great for us since 2020 when we couldn’t have met in person yet we had to keep running our town.
Town Meeting is the closest form of direct democracy, the legislative branch of our local government.
Point Solutions has worked perfectly for us. We log into the app via our cell phones using our credentials and the voting session provided to us by Town Clerk a few days before Town Meeting. We then watch the presentations and discussions on zoom, ideally on a different device (PC, iPads etc.) but use the app on our phones to vote when the voting is opened to us. We can see if our vote was registered as the color of our name changes to teal blue. After a few minutes, the votes display as a bar graph. Seamless.
But it does involve tech support and experts to make it happen.
Love it so much!
I use this app to give continuing education seminars all over the world. I have become completely addicted to it. I cannot give a talk now without using it.

It kept logging me out throughout the session. That was not very helpful as I missed two votes!
Fix your app
Should not have to sign in over and over this day and age. My grade should not be hurt because timed questions where I’m signed out just when I go to answer on your app. At the very least at a remember login ability.
Infuriating
On several occasions I have been either locked out of my own account or have been unable to connect to my class session due to some mystery connectivity issue. When a large part of my class is dependent on participation through this app the reliability of this app becomes very important. Unfortunately this app is not very reliable. Very excited to no longer need to use this app.
Stop making us use this trash
Easy to summarize with one word… TRASH. App fails constantly. Support people have not been of assistance at all this year. Last year they at least could fix this. Not anymore. Throw it away.
Glitchy
Glitchy and annoying
Unethical financial burden upon students
A $35 dollar fee per student for an app that is kahoot with less features is absolutely absurd
