Meta-owned WhatsApp has announced three new features for users to improve their experience.
According to WaBetaInfo, new features include improvements to polls, pushing media with captions, and sharing documents with captions.
New updates are being rolled out globally and released to all users who install the latest version of the app. However, it may take some time for these features to be available to everyone.
Polls
The new update allows poll creators to enable the single vote option which will make it easier for them to reach the final answer. Users can now disable the “Allow multiple responses” toggle when creating a poll.
Users can also filter messages by polls, just as they can search for images, videos, or links by selecting the “Polls” option when searching for specific text.
“Additionally, the latest app updates ensure poll creators are always up-to-date with responses by notifying them when people vote on their polls,” said the app tracking website. “
Forward media with captions.
Users can forward media with captions in this new feature. This includes images, videos and GIFs. When they forward something, they can choose to keep or delete captions or they can add more information to the caption.
Documents with captions
Additionally, users can forward documents with captions, making it easier for them to find the document later.
