How to Use Polls

Polls can be a great way to see how many people are interested in something. These can be useful when selecting books for study groups and lessons, what movie the home group is going to see and so much more. 

Sign-in to the OBCF app in Wix Spaces then tap the "poll" button on the home screen.

Now that the poll looks just the way you want it, fill in the question and the answers. When you're done designing your poll, tap "Create" in the top right of the screen.

If you decide you want to edit something after the poll is attached to your message, tap the "edit" button on the bottom left of the screen and the editor will open back up.

Selecting the gear wheel icon at the bottom of the screen will give you additional options. With these options you can allow people to select multiple answers, control who sees the results of the poll, choose to show the total vote count and show who voted for what. Adjust this as you see fit. (optional step)

Once the poll is just the way you want it, add a title to the post and a message (optional) and tap the "post" button at the top right of the screen.
