WhatsApp releases tool to create and share stickers

WhatsApp has released an update with a highly anticipated feature: a tool to create and share stickers within the app.

The feature was rolled out in the app last Wednesday (16) for experimental versions and had been highly anticipated by users since stickers were introduced to the app in 2018.

Until now, WhatsApp allowed users to add their favorite stickers to a “favorites” folder, but this quickly became a mess, making it hard to find a specific sticker to use in the middle of a conversation.

With the update, there will no longer be a need to use third-party apps to create and share stickers within WhatsApp. Additionally, it will now be possible to move them into folders and label them with custom names.

It’s worth noting that the tool will be rolled out gradually to users, as is typical with Meta’s new updates. If the feature hasn’t appeared for you yet, be sure to keep the app updated to the latest version available in your phone’s app store.
