This would be great if it actually worked.

Not functioning properly at all. Won't allow and save editing.

When it works it's great, but honestly the amount of time I spend dealing with trying to get the extension to work properly when it suddenly stops functioning in slides makes me wish I had never invested my time in this system in the first place. Only the fact that all of my activities are already in here keeps me from starting over with a different system

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Poll Everywhere for Google Slides requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
