We are excited to announce the launch of a major update for our Slack Poll app. Designed to enhance decision-making, ignite engaging discussions, and streamline feedback workflows, this update brings you the most advanced version yet.
Discover the powerful new features and improvements we've implemented to elevate your Poll app experience and how these new features can save you time and ensure consistency in your polling process.
Let’s see the benefits of our latest and greatest Poll app updates.
We pushed the Slack Block Kit's limits and improved the poll app's overall UI in every step possible.
In the previous version of the poll app, the Closing time and Starting time often caused confusion during poll scheduling. We've replaced these with two new ones:
Polls created with Poll by Actioner were undoubtedly helpful and useful, but they tend to blend in with other Slack messages, making them hard to notice. To address this, we enhanced the poll messages by leveraging the Slack Block Kit more effectively, significantly improving readability. It's much easier to understand questions, options, poll settings, and voting periods. Please examine the before and after screenshots below to see the difference for yourself.
Recurring polls save time and ensure consistency by automating the polling process for regularly scheduled decisions. It helps maintain engagement by providing a predictable and reliable way for team members to contribute their input on a regular basis, leading to more informed decision-making and a more collaborative environment. It has been a long-awaited and requested feature for the Poll by Actioner.
Now, you can fully leverage recurring polls for your repetitive poll needs.
You can create a recurring poll anytime using the poll scheduling settings we introduced with this update.
Managing your recurring polls is a breeze with Poll by Actioner, and you can do it without leaving Slack.
Poll templates save time and ensure consistency by allowing you to reuse well-structured polls. They are particularly helpful for frequently asked questions or routine feedback processes, reducing the need to repeatedly set up polls from scratch. This streamlines the polling process and helps maintain a standard format for data collection, making it easier to analyze and compare results over time.
Poll templates are a powerful tool that enables you to save your common polls and create them easily without struggling to set poll questions, options, and settings each time. And with new updates, poll template management has never been easier.
We also improved poll template use cases with the new Modifiable / Not-modifiable template logic. This makes it easier for you to categorize and manage your templates.
Our Slack Poll app now has a much more exciting app home that aims to improve your onboarding experience to the app or overall experience as a veteran Poll by Actioner user. In our new app home, you will find useful buttons that enable you to take action easily. For example, you can quickly go to the Actioner web client for your poll app with the new Go to Web button, or you can quickly create a poll using the Create poll button set, which includes all our poll types.
We also implemented Get started, Your polls, and Your response tabs to maximize the potential of a true app home page. These tabs are switchable, and you can switch between them depending on your needs.
Viewing the full list of responders to an option is one of the non-negotiable requirements of a Poll app. In previous versions, the Poll app allowed you to view a list of responders for each option in Responders view, but there was a limit to the number that could be shown due to the limitations of Slack. This was causing problems when you had a high number of responders. Therefore, we introduced the ability to get responders as a DM. With that, you can see the responders as an option without worrying about the number of responders.
You might sometimes feel uncertain while using apps like Poll by Actioner due to the various functions and things to remember. Now, with the /poll-by-actioner help command, you can get an ephemeral (visible only to you) message that can be used as a cheat sheet for the poll app. It contains poll-type details, explanations of advanced poll settings, and instructions on how to use AI while creating a poll. It also contains a link to the Poll by Actioner Help Center page if you need more comprehensive information about the app.
So, that's how you can enhance your decision-making and streamline feedback workflows with the new and improved Actioner Poll app!
