Attachments in Polls and Much More

In the Beta version of Telegram for Android 12.6, the poll feature has been significantly improved.

The tool has received a wide range of new features:

• You can now add a text description to a poll — it will be displayed before the question.
• Certain types of media files can now be attached to answer options, poll descriptions, and quiz explanations.
• A new option allows group chat participants to add their own answer options to an existing poll.
• The poll creator can now prevent users from retracting their vote.
• A new setting allows displaying answer options in a random order for each user.
• In quiz mode, you can specify one or multiple correct answers.
• You can now set a voting deadline, after which the poll automatically stops.
• If a poll timer is set, you can activate a setting that hides the voting results until it ends.
• The number of users who voted for an option is indicated next to it.
• The length of the bar under each option now depends on the proportion of users who chose that answer among the total number of voters.
• If somebody votes in your poll, a corresponding indicator is now displayed on the group in the chat list or as a floating button inside the chat itself.
