WhatsApp to roll out new feature for group chat polls soon

The Meta-owned messaging site WhatsApp is working to roll out a new "big" feature that will allow the users to conduct polls in group chats on the platform in a future update, WABetainfo reported.

With the future update, the users can ask for their friends' opinions through polling within a WhatsApp group chat.

A group member can ask a question by typing in the bar shown in the screenshot given below.

However, there aren't any more details about the feature for now since the feature is still under development.

According to the WhatsApp news tracker, the feature is designed solely for group chats and the answers collected through voting will be end-to-end encrypted like other WhatsApp chats.

This means that only the group members will be able to view the polls and their results.
