WhatsApp launches a new in-chat ‘poll’ feature for both Android and iOS. WhatsApp users can now create a new ‘Poll’ directly for both group and individual chats. Update your WhatsApp application to see this new feature.  This WhatsApp update was released through build number 2.22.24.24 for Android users. Through this update, users can create a new poll with up to 12 different options to choose from, WhatsApp will automatically update the poll when it receives a new vote and you can view the total polled votes under “Poll details”, also having the option to vote multiple options.
