Now you can create stickers directly in WhatsApp for Android

WhatsApp has introduced some exciting new features to its Android app, aimed at improving the way users interact with stickers and GIFs. One of the major updates is the addition of a native sticker creator, now available to all Android users. This new feature allows users to design and manage their own stickers directly within WhatsApp, eliminating the need for third-party apps or websites.

WhatsApp for Android: Create personalized stickers and discover endless GIFs!

Creating custom stickers used to be a pain, often requiring extra steps and external tools. With this update, users can easily create and personalize stickers right in the app, making the process more seamless and integrated.

Another significant upgrade is a partnership with Giphy, a popular platform known for its extensive collection of GIFs and animated stickers. This integration means that users can now access a much larger selection of GIFs and stickers on WhatsApp. To find and send GIFs, users simply need to go to the stickers and GIFs tab in the chat window and search using keywords or emojis.

In addition, the addition of the Giphy library simplifies the process of finding the perfect GIF or sticker to spice up your conversations. Users can browse and choose from a wide range of options, adding more fun and creativity to their messages.

Additionally, WhatsApp is rolling out Meta AI, an artificial intelligence feature that lets users create custom stickers directly from the app. The feature is currently available to users in the United States on Android and iOS devices, with support for English and Spanish. While it is set to expand to other regions, there is no confirmed timeline for its availability outside the U.S.

So these updates will be rolled out gradually through an upcoming app update. The goal is to offer users more options for personalization and self-expression in their chats. As these features are rolled out, WhatsApp users can enjoy a richer and more creative messaging experience.
