5 Of The Best Free Social Media Polling Apps

Did you know the average amount of remotely conscious decisions an adult makes each day equals about 35,000? That’s a lot for the old grey matter to deal with and it’s no wonder we’re all guilty of making the odd bad choice from time to time. Thankfully the rise of social media has also lead to a recent surge in decision making apps and polling solutions that can save you from ever making a mistake again.

1. Wishbone

Popular with the pre-teen market, has been downloaded millions of times since launching in 2015 but it hasn’t aged well (and is full of annoying pop-up ads). Still kids love it for posting images, finding and asking questions and voting on the 14 pop culture-based polls from the Wishbone editors.

“TwtPoll” is a free Twitter tool that allows users to create and vote in polls. Each one has a voting period of 24 hours. The results of each poll are posted on the Twitter page of the poll's creator after the time has ended. TwtPoll allows you to create a poll of single or multiple answers. With tens of thousands of users leaving Twitter on a daily basis, this might not be the place to get the answers you want.

4. Facebook Questions

Facebook first introduced 'Questions' back in 2011 in a bid to help you get answers from your friends or fans. Unlike other Facebook features, ‘Questions’ has failed to prove to be the hit that the social media giant hoped the Questions dashboard are being removed due to being unused.

5. Instagram Stories

Instagram’s Snapchat clone famously allows you to post a photo or video to Instagram that will only be viewable for 24 hours, after which it will disappear altogether. In a recent development Instagram have added a poll feature. As each poll is only ‘live’ for one day it’s currently pretty limited but who knows what they have up their sleeves.
