Back in October 2018, WhatsApp was updated with stickers. Users can now express their feelings better with the help of stickers. While emojis are still there, stickers just let you express your feelings a bit deeper. Stickers basically are just a bigger form of emojis, but they come with a lot of customization options. For example, you can download and install thousands of stickers to your WhatsApp. You can also create your own custom stickers and add them. If you don’t know how to add stickers to WhatsApp, you can use this guide to do it now. This guide will help you to add or remove WhatsApp stickers. The process is really simple. Before you add or remove WhatsApp stickers, learn a little more about them.
WhatsApp Stickers
First off, these work independently from the stickers of your phone or the stickers of your Keyboard. For example, your Samsung Galaxy phone may have its own entire collection of these lovely images, similarly, if you are using SwiftKey Keyboard, it also may have a huge collection of these, but WhatsApp stickers are completely different.
WhatsApp stickers reside in the emoji section of your messenger. In your WhatsApp Messenger, the message bar where you type the text, you will find an emoji icon on the left side. Clicking on this will open the emojis. At the bottom of this screen, you will find GIF and Stickers.
Clicking on Stickers will take you to the few default stickers that you have in the WhatsApp. There are only 2 or 3 packs in WhatsApp by default. These sticker packs are not that good.
