Here’s one new social / lifestyle app that might gain traction really fast. Photopoll is reportedly the first iOS app that allows users to group and share multiple photos in a feed for instant polling.

Available as a free download from the iTunes App Store, Photopoll for iPhone and iPod touch uses patent-pending technology to select two to five photos from a device, Amazon.com and Instagram, and post the batch in a central feed for people to see and cast their vote.

You can make polls with 2 to 5 photos and a question like “how do you like my forehead?” and have others tell you what they think, like “it’s big / round / greasy / like a satellite dish / perfect for a face-palm.”

Vote on polls to help and see the results yourself, and give your opinion by commenting on polls.

You actually get to see who voted what and get notified of people's opinions on your polls. And what’s a photo-sharing app without some good old fashioned filters?

Requirements include iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation), iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iPad 2 Wi-Fi + 3G, iPad (3rd generation), iPad Wi-Fi + 4G, iPad (4th generation), iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular (4th generation), iPad mini and iPad mini Wi-Fi + Cellular.

Nils Forsblom, founder and CEO, TenFarms, says, “The power of sharing multiple photos at once is immense, allowing us to provide greater context on our thoughts for the moment and accessing more support for the decisions we face every day.”

“With Photopoll, we’re offering this through a combination of utility, fun and social networking that both consumers and businesses will find useful. In the future, you can expect Photopoll to expand to additional mobile platforms, as well as the integration of more image sources from other online destinations.”

You’ll need iOS 6 to run this one.
