Do you trust your friends? Instagram adds new poll feature to let followers vote on your snaps

Today Instagram introduces an interactive poll sticker in Instagram Stories that lets you ask a question and see results from your friends and followers as they vote.
Whether you’re trying to plan tomorrow’s outfit, choosing which class to take or figuring out where to go for dinner, now it’s easy to share a two option poll right in your story. After you’ve taken a photo or video for your story, select the “poll” sticker and place it anywhere you’d like you can write out your own question and even customize the poll choices.

After you’ve shared your poll, your friends and followers can immediately start voting and see real-time results. Once someone has voted on your poll, they’ll see which choice is in the lead at any given moment. And if they watch your story again later, they’ll see the latest results.


The update comes alongside new tools geared toward a more ‘creative’ experience, including a color-matching tool for text, and an alignment tool for text and stickers.

To see your own poll results, swipe up to open the viewers list for that part of your story. There you’ll see everything you need to get the best answer for your question. Not only will you see how many votes each option received, but you’ll also see who voted and what option they chose. That way, you’ll be able to compare votes from the friends and followers whose opinions you trust most. And just like your story, your poll and its results will disappear after 24 hours.
