Google Chat borrows this WhatsApp feature to cut down on endless debates

Google has experimented with multiple chat apps over the last decade. While Google Chat may be its most serious effort since dropping the Hangouts branding, it still isn’t a fan favorite. However, that hasn’t stopped Google from showing the app some love — especially in recent months, with the release of several new features. In line with that, Google Chat has now added a polling feature similar to what WhatsApp has had for years, making decision-making faster when working with large teams that need quick input.
