A Screen Recording poll asks respondents to record their screen and voice while reacting to your content. Use it when you need to watch how people interact with your product listing, landing page, or website — capturing both their actions and their spoken feedback in real time. Screen Recording polls collect 1-2 minute videos showing exactly how respondents navigate, click, scroll, and react to your content. You’ll see what confuses them, what excites them, and where they focus their attention. This poll type is a variation of an Open-Ended poll — you share one piece of content (text, image, video, or URL) and gather qualitative feedback. The difference: instead of written responses, you get video recordings of their screen and voice. When should I use a Screen Recording poll? Screen Recording polls work best when you need to see how people interact with your content. They’re ideal for:
  • Landing page testing — how do visitors navigate your page? What catches their attention?
  • Product listing optimization — where do shoppers look on your Amazon or e-commerce listing? What questions arise?
  • User experience research — how do people explore your website or app interface?
  • Message clarity — do visitors understand your value proposition and key features?
  • First impressions — what’s their immediate reaction when they see your offering?
Choose Screen Recording when you want to watch people’s authentic reactions and interactions, not just read about them. Note: Screen Recording polls currently support U.S. audiences only, with sample sizes between 5-30 respondents (in increments of 5). Support for additional countries is coming in a future update.

How many respondents can I target?

Screen Recording polls support 5-30 respondents in increments of 5 (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30). This ensures you get quality video feedback without overwhelming volume.

​
Which countries are supported?

Currently, Screen Recording polls support U.S. audiences only. You can apply all standard PickFu targeting traits for U.S. respondents. Support for additional countries is planned for a future update.

​
What content formats can I test?

Screen Recording polls support text, images, videos, audio files, and URLs. URLs work particularly well — respondents can navigate your live website or product page while recording.

​
How long are the screen recordings?

Recordings are typically 1-2 minutes long, giving respondents enough time to explore your content and share detailed reactions.

​
How is Screen Recording different from Open-Ended polls?

Both poll types collect qualitative feedback on one piece of content. Open-Ended polls collect written text responses, while Screen Recording polls capture video of the respondent’s screen and voice. Use Screen Recording when you need to see how people interact with your content, not just read their opinions.
