How polls work on this site

Step by step: make a poll, share it, vote and read the results, what is stored, how long polls last and how to close one early.

  1. Make it. On the home page type your question, add two to eight options and choose how many days the poll stays open (up to 30). Press Make my poll.
  2. Keep the admin link. After you make the poll, the page address contains a private admin code after the # sign. Bookmark it or keep it in "Your polls on this device". It lets you close the poll early.
  3. Share. Use "Copy poll link" or "Send on WhatsApp". The link without the admin code is the one to share.
  4. Vote. People tap an option and press Vote, then see the results. Each device can vote once.
  5. Results. They show percentages and counts and update when the page reloads.

What is stored

The question, options, vote counts, an anonymous random device code, and the time. No names, phone numbers or IP addresses. Old polls are deleted automatically some weeks after they close.

What this is not

It is not secret-ballot software and not an official count. Read the limits of anonymous voting and how to run a fair poll.
