O WhatsApp began testing, in its beta version for iOSthe possibility of sharing channel polls. Already available in group conversations for some time, the new feature can now be used by messenger testers.
Identified by staff WABetaInfo In the latest version of WhatsApp on TestFlight (2.24.1.7), the functionality unlocks another form of interaction between the owner of a channel and its participants, since only the administrator can send messages.
According to the website, the new feature can be found in the menu represented by a plus icon (“+”), right next to the text box. Among the feature’s options, there is the ability to limit the number of responses that users can register at a time, for example.
To protect the safety of channel participants, responses are completely anonymous, making it possible to only see the total number of votes registered. Not even the channel owner can see which people voted for each of the options.
As mentioned, channel polls have been released to some testers, but should reach more people soon.
