WhatsApp Web has received a new built-in custom Sticker Maker feature that lets you upload regular pictures of your own and transform them into stickers that can be sent. It can be accessed by simply clicking the attachments icon (paperclip), selecting ‘Sticker’, and then picking an image to add.
A range of editing options have been provided so that once uploaded, you can effortlessly turn an image into the perfect sticker. These editing tools include emojis that can be pasted atop the custom sticker, custom text, advanced cropping tools, and even an option to add more stickers atop the one you’re working on.
The custom Sticker Maker feature has currently only made it to WhatsApp Web but is set to arrive soon on the desktop apps as well. There hasn’t been any indication of it coming to Android and iOS as of yet, but it can be expected.
Of course, the ability to send your own stickers on WhatsApp is nothing new, with multiple apps being available on both iOS and Android for the purpose. However, having it built-in is an unparalleled level of convenience and we hope that the feature will be making it to other platforms as well.
WhatsApp has been working on improving its user experience for a while now and has introduced a number of new features over the past few months alone. These include new safety features such as Flash Calls and Message Level Reporting, an option to hide ‘Last Seen’ from specific contacts, and even functionality that allows using WhatsApp on multiple devices without a smartphone connection.
