Private Voting doesn’t work
I unchecked the box that said “See Who Voted” that way everyone could vote without anyone seeing what they voted. People are more honest that way since they don’t feel the pressure of being judged by others for their vote. Well, it didn’t work. Everyone in the group iMessage got an iMessage each time someone voted AND it showed which vote option increased. So you could easily see Person A voted for Option 2, Person B voted for Option 5, and so on till the poll was over. Good idea, bad execution.

Little infuriating
When I downloaded the app I was expecting it to be on my Home Screen which was weird. Then in my group chat my friend pulled up a polls vote page and I couldn’t vote, and I still don’t know why. I feel left out in my group chat that everyone can vote and I can’t. Also I asked my friend how you vote and she said, “ Do you ah e the little plus sign near your typing bar,” and I said yes. Then she said scroll down, so I did and then I saw the Polls app I clicked it Whitehall were my friends instructions and nothing happened.

Nice tool
I read some of the comments and am happy to see that the updates do in fact allow for more customized polling.
Our family chat has 10 people. All of whom have different schedules. Having the voting centralized with this app has been very useful.
I am happy I did not let the low rating deter me from downloading. I am quite happy!

Few tweaks!! Almost perfect.
Just needs the voting without downloading the app or using a link like other apps. It would be nice if the others can interact with the message once they receive it and choose they're vote without redirecting. It would be deeply appreciated. I have a family group chat and we get together often and it would be easy to vote to make decisions on the things we plan. This app is almost perfect. Please fix as soon as possible across all devices.

Does not work
Won’t open in iMessage !!
Does not work - how to delete listed below
Concept wise great, execution wise its lacking. To put simply the app simply does not work. You add it, then click on it in messager and nothing, theres no popup app or redirect to the app page. Just a good old solid nothing. Furthermore It is more of an add on to iphone messenger than an actual app; Making it borderline impossible to uninstall as there is no physical app widget for it. This app would be better as a feature of messenger and not a separate entity. Honestly feels like i downloaded something illicit in nature, as an app that does nothing, is impossible to remove and is free; probs is up to no good. *********************************** Edit- for those of you trying to delete this elusive app. The following is how i deleted it. - settings >messages > iMessage apps> then there will be a option to delete this app

Just doesn’t work
I don’t know if its been deprecated but whenever I create any pool with anyone, it just fails. Hope the devs can fix it soon. Interesting concept.
2 years later and its clearly a stupid project.

Recipients have to download app?
I research this app before downloading it, and all of the sites said that your recipient did not have to download the app to respond to the pole. However, during my tests with my husband, when he taps on the pole, it takes him straight to the App Store for download. It’s a shame because I really need the pulling option, but I don’t want people to have to download the app. I’d be willing to pay if I could find an app that did polling without your recipients having to do anything besides respond.

Not so good
It is quite glitchy and in order to vote, you need the app! Highly inconvenient if you need to do something for a party! I do not have WhatsApp, so I downloaded this.
Can’t delete
There is instruction on how to delete on an older iOS. But not the current. Cannot delete. Have had battery drain since installing.
