WhatsApp seems to recognise that stickers are possibly the most popular way for users to express themselves on the platform. As a result, it has recently included a new tool to its Web and Desktop programmes that allows you to make some unique stickers. With the personalised sticker function, you can express your creativity while interacting with others. Visit this page for more information about this fun new WhatsApp feature.
WhatsApp Web Adds a Custom Sticker Maker Tool
You can now make your own custom stickers using the WhatsApp Web and Desktop app and send them to friends with a single click. All Windows and Mac users have access to this functionality. Simply make sure you are running WhatsApp Web or Desktop’s most recent version. The new function is now available after being recently discovered in WhatsApp Web’s beta version.
How to Create Custom WhatsApp Stickers
It’s easy to use the built-in Sticker Maker on WhatsApp Web. To begin the sticker making process, you just need to adhere to a few easy steps that we have listed below. Let’s examine its operation:
- Head to WhatsApp Web (website) and open a chat window you want to send the personalized sticker to.
- Tap the Attachment icon in the bottom left corner of the message box. Then, select the Sticker option.
- You will now be prompted to choose a photo you wish to convert into a sticker from your PC. Select the photo and click Open in the pop-up Explorer window.
- Now, WhatsApp Web will open the sticker maker UI, offering you access to a myriad of editing tools. You can choose to cut/ crop the image, rotate the image, add emoji, stickers, or text, and draw over the image. Check out the WhatsApp Web sticker maker tool in the screenshot below:
- Once you are satisifed with your edits, click the Send button at the bottom right corner to share your custom sticker in the chat window.
According to the messaging juggernaut, the feature is currently available for WhatsApp Web users and will roll out to the Desktop version in the upcoming weeks.
This new functionality is welcome news considering that third-party apps were previously required in order to generate personalised WhatsApp Stickers. No information has been released regarding whether or not the same will apply to the messaging platform’s Android and iOS apps. Things may be quite well organised if that were to occur, especially for those who send and receive stickers on a daily basis.
In related news, WhatsApp plans to introduce a few additional features, such as the ability to alter audio playing speeds, the capability to erase transmitted messages after 7 days, and message reactions.
