WhatsApp: Meta always keeps updating something new in its messaging platform WhatsApp so that users always remain attracted towards WhatsApp. This time also a new feature has been added to WhatsApp. This feature is for WhatsApp channel. Let us tell you about it.
New feature in WhatsApp
WhatsApp started the poll feature on its platform about a year ago, through which users could create a poll with some options to seek answers to any question, and send it to their friends or groups. Now WhatsApp has started the option to share the poll in WhatsApp channel also.
With this, users will be able to get more votes on any of their questions. Till now, after creating a poll, users send it one by one to their friends or any group, where they do not get much voting on their question. But now by sharing polls on WhatsApp channel, users can get more voting on any poll.
Android beta users got a chance to use
According to WABetainfo, a website that keeps track of all the upcoming features and news of WhatsApp, this feature has currently been introduced only for select beta users.

The company is busy improving this feature according to the feedback received from beta users, and then this feature will be launched for general Android users. However, this feature has not been released yet for the beta users of iOS, so it will be difficult to say when the users running iPhone will get this feature.
