CREATE POLL
Last month, we posted news about a new feature under development: the ability to create polls in your WhatsApp groups! The news was spotted during the development of the WhatsApp beta for iOS 22.6.0.72 update, but further details were not available. Today, thanks to the release of the new WhatsApp beta for iOS 22.8.0.72 update, we have discovered some improvements for the feature:
The feature is still under development, but you can see in this screenshot that the company is now working on poll options, so the ability to enter some possible options for the poll. You can read that it is possible to add up to 12 possible options and while you are creating them, you can also move an option to a different position.
The ability to create polls is not available since it's under development, but you can see this is another step forward. When the feature is available in a new update, there will be another changelog on this website.
