How to make an anonymous poll link

Polls are the easiest thing to answer — a tap instead of a paragraph. Here is how to make an anonymous poll link with ICL.

What a poll link is

A poll link is a question with two or more options. People vote with one tap, and you see the results in the app. ICL has 123 ready-made polls — this or that, would you rather, rate me, predictions and more.

How to make one

1. Pick a poll from the library or write your own with your own options.

2. Copy your ICL link.

3. Add it to a story or send it in a chat.

4. Votes land in your inbox — share the results as a follow-up.

Why polls get answers

Low effort, high response. A tap is easier than typing, so polls pull in the people who would never write a paragraph.

FAQ

Can people vote without the app?

Yes — the link opens in a browser and voting takes one tap.

How many options should a poll have?

Two to four keeps a poll scannable on a story. ICL supports whatever options you write.

Can I see who voted?

You see the votes in your inbox. Responses can be anonymous to other people, while safety systems, rate limits and moderation still apply.
