CREATE WHATSAPP STICKERS WITHOUT ANY APP

 

Introduction

I've always had a problem creating WhatsApp stickers, in fact, if on one side there are a lot of apps, they always have to be installed in your smartphone and some contain advertisements or in-app purchases to unlock advanced features nor unlimited sticker creation. That’s bad for normal users who only want to make stickers to share with their friends.

 

What you need to start with

-          A computer (it cannot be made with a smartphone);

-          A browser (it can be Chrome, Firefox or any other);

-          An Internet connection, of course;

-          WhatsApp Web opened (if you haven’t got it, just click here and follow the instructions).

 

Create a (note) group with yourself only (?!?!)

Yes, it could be confusing… a group with ...only you.

To do it, you just need to make a new WhatsApp group, then add a friend (you can’t create a group with only you directly), then delete your friend just after the new group is created. Now, you have an entire chat you can write anything to remember, such as notes.

Watch out: before doing this, make sure to warn your friend, he/she could receive the notification of group adding and deleting…

 

Let’s create our sticker

Make sure to have your sticker photo ready on your computer and your “notes group” selected before continuing.

Open the stickers menu by clicking on the “face” button (1), clicking the same button once more if needed (2), then go to recent (it’s a watch icon, 3), then click on “Create” (plus button, 4), finally choose your photo and import it.

 

 

Add more content to your sticker

Now you are free to modify (1 and 6 to cut, 7 to go back and revert), add new text (4), other emoji (2), stickers (3) and some draws (5) to make your sticker perfect.

When you’re done, click on the send button (8), as you do with a simple message, and you should see your sticker ready in a while.

 

 

Save you sticker for a next use

Because the sticker you made isn’t a sticker pack but just a sticker you need to save it in your favourite  to use with other chats. To do this, if you never made it, take your smartphone and tap on the sticker, then “Add to favourite”. Now you just need to open the sticker menu, “Favourite ”, and you can share it with your friends.

 

 

 

More about WhatsApp stickers feature

This feature has been introduced into WhatsApp Web around November 2021, to add a simple way users can do their stickers without any app. The good thing is that this feature should also come into iOS and Android WhatsApp, so, you won’t need a computer, but we don’t know when. For now, keep stickering!
