WhatsApp Stickers may have arrived late into 2018 but it has quickly become the most popular feature on the platform. The instant messaging app lets you use a few pre-loaded stickers and download new ones from the app stores. WhatsApp also allows users and developers to create custom stickers.

How to create stickers on WhatsApp

WhatsApp has sample apps and codes for Android and iOS developers to create sticker packs.

Stickers must have an image with a transparent background.

Stickers should have dimensions of 512x512 pixels.

The margin should be 16-pixel between the sticker image and the edge of the canvas.

Also, the file size of each sticker must be less than 100KB.

Each sticker pack requires an icon that has to be sized 96x96 pixels and less than 50KB.

WhatsApp has README files for further information on reducing the size of the stickers, choosing the right format and more.

WhatsApp also lets users customise stickers with their own photos through third-party apps like Sticker Maker. Users would have to download any background eraser app on their Android phone and use the 'Sticker Maker' app to customise their stickers.
