Questions

The Q&A feature lets attendees submit questions during a live event. Organizers can moderate, curate, and display the best questions on the big screen via the Display View.

How it works for attendees

Tap the Ask a Question button in the Action Bar
Type the question in the modal that appears
Optionally add your name (or submit anonymously, if allowed by Event Settings)
Submit — the question is sent to the organizer

Depending on event settings:

Questions may appear immediately in the Activity Feed
Or they may require moderator approval before becoming visible (see Moderation below)

Attendees can also see their own submitted questions and their approval status in the My Submitted Questions section.

How it works for organizers

Receiving questions

Questions arrive in real time in the Producer panel. You’ll see them in the moderation sidebar where you can:

Approve — Make the question visible to all attendees in the Activity Feed
Dismiss — Hide the question without showing it
Go Live — Send the question to the Display View for the whole room to see

Moderation flow

Attendee submits → Appears in moderation queue → Organizer reviews
  → Approve → Visible in Activity Feed
  → Go Live → Shown full-screen on Display View
  → Dismiss → Hidden

Enable or disable moderation in Event Settings → Interactions.

Creating questions manually

Organizers can also create questions from the Producer panel — useful for seeding Q&A or submitting questions on behalf of the audience (e.g., from a microphone runner).

Permission levels

Configure who can ask questions in Event Settings → Interactions:

Level	Who can ask
Anonymous	Anyone with the event link — no sign-in needed
Named users	Must provide a name before submitting
Authenticated	Must sign in with an account

Moderation settings

Setting	Effect	Where to configure
Require moderation	Questions stay hidden until an organizer approves them in the Producer panel	Event Settings
Auto-approve	Questions appear immediately in the Activity Feed	Event Settings

Comments on questions

Attendees can comment on approved questions if comments are enabled. Configure this in Event Settings:

Enable comments globally — turns comments on for all new items
Auto-add comments — when on, every new item (including questions) has comments enabled by default
Per-item toggle — you can also enable/disable comments on individual questions from the Producer panel

Tips

For large audiences (100+), enable moderation to filter noise and surface the best questions
For intimate workshops, auto-approve works well and feels more natural
Use the “Go Live” action to highlight a question on the Display View before the speaker answers it
Encourage attendees to upvote questions they want answered — it helps you prioritize in the Producer panel

Producer Panel Manage questions, moderate content, and control the display

Event Settings Configure Q&A permissions and moderation
