WhatsApp Launches New Feature To Create And Share Your Own Sticker Packs
WhatsApp just made stickers a whole lot more fun and way easier to manage. In its latest update, Meta's messaging giant has introduced a sleek new feature that lets users create custom sticker packs without ever leaving the app. Whether you're team Android or iOS, this fresh rollout is now available to everyone — no more beta-only access, and definitely no need for third-party apps.
Create Custom Sticker Packs Within WhatsApp
The highlight of this update is the ability to design your own sticker packs directly in WhatsApp. A handy pencil icon now appears in the sticker tray — right alongside the GIFs, avatars, and sticker tabs. Tap it, and you’re taken straight to sticker-making mode.
Here’s how to do it:
- Go to the sticker section
- Tap the new pencil icon
- Choose your favorite stickers
- Hit the three-dot menu in the corner
- Select “Add to sticker pack”
- Give your folder a name
That’s it — your custom pack is ready to use and share!
Organise Stickers Into Folders
Finding the right sticker during a conversation can be frustrating — especially if you’ve saved hundreds. Now, you can sort saved stickers into neatly labelled folders. This feature is designed to help you speed up your search, so the perfect reaction is always just a tap away.
Send an Entire Pack at Once
Another fun twist? You no longer have to send stickers one by one. WhatsApp now lets you share entire sticker packs in one go. It’s a great way to send a full mood or theme to your chat buddies, especially if you’ve spent time curating your own pack. However, this only works with stickers you create — the pre-installed ones from WhatsApp aren't supported in custom folders yet.
A Long-Awaited Feature Now for Everyone
WhatsApp started testing this feature back in October 2024. At first, it was only available to Android users on the beta program. But now, with the official rollout, everyone can join the sticker revolution.
Express Yourself, Your Way
With this update, WhatsApp is taking personalization to the next level. In their own words, “You can now create your own sticker packs and share them directly in your chats, so your friends and family can all use your custom stickers to express themselves.” And that’s exactly what this update delivers — quicker access, better organization, and more freedom to express yourself creatively.
Whether you're sending a good morning sticker to your parents or dropping a sassy meme in your group chat, this new feature ensures you’re always just a tap away from the perfect sticker.
