The updated app is out now in the App Store, Apple Insider reports. No other changes were listed in the short report, and Apple has not commented further in the material available.

Why it matters

Apple Invites is Apple's app for building and sending event invitations. Polls should make it easier for hosts to settle details such as meal choices without switching to another service.

The floating emoji effect adds a visual touch that matches an event's theme, giving hosts a simple way to personalise invitations.
