Google Chat Groups 'Read Notification' & Polls

[Drumax]

Is there anything in the works for having the notification to see who has read messages in group chats & 'Space' section of Google chat? Between knowing who read the messages & being able to create polls, those were the only features that Microsoft Kaizala had over Google Chat & I would like to see if either of these will be added. Google Forms is a nice feature but being able to see a poll within the chat is just quicker & easier.

I am not aware of anything being in the pipeline re: read notifications. But polls can easily be accomplished by installing a bot like Polly. Search for "poll" in the add members sections.

I wasn't aware of Polly, I'll give that one a shot, thank you

So I tried out Polly & I like it but same thing applies to Polly, can't view who responded to it. I'd really like to see who is responding to the Poll & who is reading the messages when they're sent out to my teams.

Unfortunately, none of it is built in natively at this point. Best thing you can do is drop a feature request here:

Sorry, wish I had a better answer.

I do agree that a native polling feature is necessary in Spaces - port over the one from Meet!
