### Conclusion

Dpoll is undoubtedly an amazing platform and one of the guaranteed places to access if you ever need public opinion on a subject or decision-making processes.

The Website isn’t mobile responsive in my opinion. It would be great to see Dpoll on our Android and iOS, where it can be easily accessed. I might be caught up with an issue that would need an instant poll, mobile makes it easy for me to get help from the platform. However, users can switch to the desktop view on browsers such as Chrome and Firefox and still enjoy that amazing user experience.
