Common questions
The poll did not appear in a private channel
The app can post in a private channel only after it was invited. Run /invite @Meeting Mouse in that channel, then start the poll again.
It says the poll limit is reached
A workspace can have 10 polls open at once. Close or delete one from the menu on its message, then start the new one. Closed polls do not count.
/meet opens a different app
Another app in your workspace uses the same command. Use /mouse, which opens the same form.
Who can close or delete a poll
Only the person who started it, from the menu on the poll's message.
What does it cost
Meeting Mouse is free.
Remove the app
A workspace admin opens Slack's app management page for the workspace, selects Meeting Mouse and chooses Remove App. Everything Meeting Mouse stored for the workspace is deleted at once. Poll messages already posted stay in their channels until someone deletes them in Slack.
