### **2. Join the polling during physical event**

When attendees scan the QR code on event materials shown by the organizer or click the polling event link through the social media platform, they could do the Q\&A and polling without logging into an EventX account.

**Reminder:** The sharing link address and the QR code address are the same, but question submission and polling are only available on **mobile view**.

A page will pop up upon scanning the QR code, shown as follow.
