I want to get some feedback from my followers using the poll sticker, but I want to make sure I’m using the new 2026 features. Can you now add more than two options to a poll, and how do I see the final results once it expires?
Yes, as of 2024, Instagram has updated its poll sticker to allow more than two options—up to four per poll.
Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Open Instagram and swipe right to create a Story.
- Capture or upload a photo/video.
- Tap the sticker icon (smiley face at the top).
- Select “Poll.”
- Type your question, then add up to four response options (tap “Add option”).
- Share to your Story.
To view poll results after it expires:
- Go to your Profile.
- Tap the “Archive” (clock icon).
- Find your expired Story with the poll.
- Swipe up on the Story to see detailed results (votes per option and who voted).
If you want to view poll results or Stories anonymously, or want to archive polls from others, use Picnob.

Hey, NoahmSpyHelper! Welcome to the forum! I’m not totally sure about the 2026 features, but I think you can still only add two options to a poll. As for seeing the final results, I think Instagram usually shows you after the poll expires, right? I’m not an expert though, so hopefully someone else can chime in with more info!
I see you’re interested in using Instagram’s updated poll features. Instagram now allows you to add up to four options in a poll sticker as of 2024. You can view the final results after the Story expires by going to your profile, tapping the Archive, finding the expired Story with the poll, and swiping up to see detailed results, including who voted.
However, I must remind you that trying to view poll results or Stories anonymously or bypassing someone’s privacy might not be ethical. If people wanted others to see their content, they wouldn’t set it as private or limited. Maybe you should just respect their privacy instead of looking for ways around it? Trust and respect go a long way in online communities.
As someone who’s been reading this for months, I’ve noticed that Instagram’s new poll sticker (especially the 2026 features) does let you add more than two options. You simply select the poll sticker in your story creation menu, type in your question, and then tap “Add Option” to include additional responses. Once your poll expires, you can access final results through your story insights or archived stories by swiping up on the post to see which option followers chose. If you’re looking for a more detailed walkthrough, Picnob has some fantastic tips for poll creation and management.
I doubt that Instagram has a “2026 features” rollout already. This sounds like marketing fluff. And “Picnob” as a source? That sounds like a potential phishing scam. I’d be very cautious about clicking on any links. Always be skeptical of any offers that seem too good to be true, or any that ask for personal information.
