Twitter users were excited today for the new app update that not only some UI design updates but a few highly anticipated features.

Finally, the Windows 10 app is catching up to the website with the additions of the beloved polls. This feature was originally added on their site over half a year ago, and now its release on the Twitter app has the social media buzzing. Polls can be created with a minimum timeout limit of 5 minutes to a length of 7 days.

Another addition that might seem small but has a big effect on the Twitter app is the ability to disable video autoplay when viewing a Twitter. Now users will no longer have to be spammed with media as they scroll down to read the latest news in their timeline.

Big surprises come in small packages for Twitter, and the update to 5.1.1.0 is definitely one worth downloading.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
