WhatsApp will soon make it easier to make group decisions within the app. The popular Meta-owned messaging app is developing a feature that will allow you to conduct polls in group chats, similar to Telegram.
The dependable WABetaInfo has uncovered details of the upcoming feature via the latest WhatsApp beta version. A future WhatsApp update, according to their report, will allow you to create polls directly within WhatsApp groups.
By typing a question in the bar shown below, any group member will be able to ask the group chats opinion.
According to the WhatsApp feature tracker, polls will be end-to-end encrypted like other WhatsApp chats, which means that only the members of the group will be able to see the results.
There are no additional details on this feature as of yet because it is still in development.
In related news, WhatsApp is working on a Community Tab as well. This will consolidate all of your community-related group chats into a single location. Group administrators will be able to add their groups to this tab, making management easier.
The chatting app is also working on message reactions and the ability to record and pause voice messages.
All of these features are expected to be included in future updates, but there is no set release date as of yet. Keep an eye out.
