How do I run a poll during my stream?

While you are live, tap the poll button in your broadcaster toolbar, write the question and options, and launch it. Viewers vote right on the stream and everyone watches the results move in real time. You have to be live first: the poll button reminds you if you try before starting.

Running one

  1. Go live.
  2. Tap the poll icon in your broadcaster controls.
  3. Write the question and the answer options in the poll window.
  4. Launch. The poll card appears on the stream for every viewer, and you see the same live results they do.
  5. Close it when you are done and act on the result, that last part is the whole trick.

Polls that actually engage

  • Let the poll drive the stream: "which game next", "push or rotate", "keep this loadout?". Viewers who steer, stay.
  • Keep options short and few: two to four choices vote fast, seven choices split into noise.
  • Announce the result out loud and do it: a poll you ignore is worse than no poll.
  • One good poll per stream segment beats constant polling: scarcity keeps votes meaningful.
