WhatsApp, being one of the most popular messaging apps across the world, is constantly updated with new features and functionalities.

However, at the time of this writing, it still does not offer a native tool to create stickers directly in the application, for both Android devices and iPhones (iOS).

But do not worry! There are hidden tricks and features that allow you to create your own stickers without the need to download third-party apps.

In this article, we'll explore two ways to do this.

Creating stickers in WhatsApp on iPhone (iOS)

If you are an iPhone user and want to create stickers directly from your device, follow these steps:

Step 1: Access your iPhone gallery and choose the photo you want to turn into a sticker.

Step 2: Tap and hold the object or area of the photo you want to highlight until Live Objects activates. Once selected, tap the “Copy” option.

Step 3: Open a conversation on WhatsApp, tap the typing bar and select the “Paste” option. The object will be displayed on the screen in the format of a sticker. Now, just tap “Send”.

Step 4: The sticker will be sent immediately in the conversation. If you want to save it for later use in other chats, tap on it and select “Add to favorites”.

Step 5: If you change your mind and want to remove the sticker, just press it and choose the “Delete” option.

This technique allows iPhone users to create their own stickers from their photos without the need to use external applications, making conversations on WhatsApp even more personalized and fun.

Creating stickers on WhatsApp on Android via the web

If you are an Android user and prefer to create stickers on your PC, follow these steps:

Step 1: Open a WhatsApp conversation in your web browser on PC.

Step 2: Click on the “+” icon located in the typing bar and select the “New sticker” option.

Step 3: Choose the desired image on your computer and click “Open”. This will open an editing tool on your PC.

Step 4: Use adjustment options, such as resizing and positioning, to customize the image in the area designated for creating the sticker.

Step 5: Take advantage of the tools in the top menu to add text, emojis, other stickers and even drawings to your new sticker, customizing it according to your preferences.

Step 6: After completing the editing, click on the green arrow icon to send the sticker in the conversation.

Step 7: The sticker will be sent immediately in the conversation. If you want to save it for future use, just click on the sticker and select “Add to favorites”.

Step 8: If you don't like the sticker or want to remove it from the chat, tap the top arrow and click “Delete”.

This approach is particularly convenient for Android users who want to create stickers directly on their computer without needing to install additional apps on their mobile device.
