In case you need some tips on how to use and create WhatsApp Poll, you can check out the easy guide mentioned below. I’m using this feature in Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, you can see if it’s available on your phone.
How to use WhatsApp Poll:
In any WhatsApp group or chat, tap on the attachment button (or “+” icon in iOS). Alongside Documents, Location, Payment, and other options, you will see the “Poll” option at the last on the menu. Tap on it.
In the “Ask question” section enter the question you want to create a poll for. Next to this, you will see “Options”. You can add multiple options here – enter the two options and more “Add” options will appear automatically. Once done, simply hit the “Send” button.
Availability:
It’s worth mentioning that the WhatsApp Polls feature is rolling out in a staged manner, which means it is not available for all Android and iOS users at the time. Some outdated smartphone users could get the feature in the coming time.
Make sure to update your WhatsApp to the latest version to get access to this feature. To do so you can simply head over to Google Play Store on Android and App Store on iOS.

WhatsApp for Android is rolling out a new beta update, which enhances user interaction with status updates by developing a new reaction notification feature. Users can identify the new beta update through version 2.24.9.29 on Android devices.
Previously, WhatsApp had been working on a quick reaction feature. The latest beta version goes a step further by providing an option to turn off notifications for ‘Like reactions.’ This means users can choose not to be notified every time someone reacts to their status, which could be particularly useful for those who receive many reactions.
This feature is beneficial as it allows users to reduce disruptions by preventing their notification panel from being cluttered with WhatsApp reaction notifications. But for those who prefer to view reactions at their convenience, this update will allow them to do so without the constant alerts.
Moreover, WhatsApp aims to enhance users’ control over their notifications and let them decide how they want to engage with status updates. This update is still under development, so stay tuned more details will be shared as they become available.

WhatsApp has introduced a new feature called Chat Filters to enhance the user experience. This feature simplifies the process of navigating through messages, making it quick and effortless. With the increasing volume of messages on WhatsApp, the ability to quickly access them is important.
The Chat Filters feature of WhatsApp helps users organize their chats better and focus on the most pressing conversations. The rollout of these filters has begun and will be available to all users in the upcoming weeks.
By tapping on these filters at the top of the chat list, users can sort their messages with ease. It offers three convenient options:
All: This filter shows every message or we can say a default view of all
Unread: This filter highlights conversations that require attention, displaying both marked unread and new messages.
Groups: It contains all group conversations, including Community subgroups, in one place. This filter is much-anticipated addition for organizing all group chats.
With the introduction of the Chat Filters feature, WhatsApp aims to improve functionality and ensure users can focus on their most important messages.

WhatsApp is enhancing user engagement with a new feature that prompts users to invite their contacts to join the messaging platform. This feature appears as a banner at the top of the chat list and is part of a targeted campaign to increase the app’s user base.
It is currently available to a select group of users who have installed the latest WhatsApp updates on iOS and Android devices. The banner aims to remind users to encourage their friends and family to use WhatsApp.
This approach is especially useful in countries where WhatsApp users are less, as it serves as a visible and convenient prompt for users to invite more people to the platform. By highlighting the advantages of new features and a unified chat experience, WhatsApp is looking to attract more users and maintain its position as a leading messaging service.
The feature is expected to be rolled out more widely in the coming weeks. This new move indicates that WhatsApp wants to keep users informed and connected, using the visibility of in-app notifications.
