WhatsApp has unveiled a feature on the web version that lets users create custom stickers for free, without using any app.
This means you won’t need any third-party apps to make stickers again, since you can quickly open the WhatsApp web and create any sticker you want.
In another development, the official WhatsApp app now supports importing stickers from third-party sticker-making apps.
For those who don’t understand, if you followed our guide on how to make Custom Animated Stickers for WhatsApp on Android, you’ll find out that we imported our animated stickers to a mod WhatsApp before sending them to our main WhatsApp account for “adding to favorites“.
Yet, the feature is only available on the WhatsApp web and, hopefully, on the WhatsApp desktop, but we aren’t sure of its launch on smart devices, as there is no official statement from Meta-owned WhatsApp.
Although we aren’t sure if you can make animated stickers with this feature, you can still try our guide on creating animated stickers for WhatsApp for free.
To use this feature on your desktop, follow the guide below:
- Go to WhatsApp web and select a chat
- Click on the emoji icon and then navigate to the paperclip icon(WhatsApp sticker) beside it
- Now, click on “CREATE” to choose any desired image or GIF file to import
- You can now crop, outline the image, add text, stickers, and emojis, paint imported images, and make other minor edits.
- You can now hit the send icon to send and automatically save the sticker to your collection.
That’s it.
Since we all can agree that stickers are replacements for emoji as they help us express ourselves without much text… why not explore this new feature while we await WhatsApp’s official announcement?
