A lot of users wonder whether is it possible to arrange to vote in the WhatsApp group. WhatsApp is used by 2 billion people in the world. However, it doesn’t have a polling function.
Unfortunately, there is no built-in function in the app. You can not use the services of bots-assistants (such as in Telegram), because they are also absent from the functionality of the program. However don’t get upset, because there are separate apps that will help you to solve this problem.
A poll is a great way to gather feedback and make a decision that the majority of the group will agree with. So, here is how to start a poll in WhatsApp in a few simple steps.
