How Does the Quiz Sticker Differ from Poll and Question stickers?

As I mentioned earlier above, the Instagram Quiz sticker is somehow the combination of question and poll sticker, but it surely differs from them in some ways. Below are the differences of these 3 stickers with each other:

Quiz Vs. Poll sticker

The significant difference between Instagram quiz sticker and poll sticker is that there are 4 answers to choose from when the sticker is chosen as Quiz, and there are only 2 answers on a Poll sticker. You need to know the answer to the Quiz you make, but on the poll, you decide the answer on the majority of votes your followers have chosen.

The poll sticker is used to know your follower’s opinion on something or to know the answer of a question you are doubtful about. For example, you want to dye your hair and you are stuck between a light brown or chocolate brown color to go with, and you can not choose between them. Here, you can make a poll sticker and ask your followers which color would best go with your style.

Quiz Vs. Question sticker

There is a huge difference between these two stickers, and that is the answer choices which does not exist when using a Question sticker. The Question sticker does not have any options to choose from on an Instagram story. You can use the question sticker in two ways.

The first way is to ask your followers the answer to something so that they can write their answers on the message bar below your question as a text and there are no prepared choices for them to choose from.

The second way to use this sticker is to answer your followers’ question on anything or on a specific subject you set. For example, you writhe the caption of the question sticker “Ask me anything,” which is also a general question Instagrammers share on their stories, and your followers would ask any question they like to know about you, and then you have to answer them.

Instagram question sticker — Another interactive sticker that can be used on your stories is the question sticker which allows you to ask a question and await its answers from your followers, or you can enable them to ask you questions.
