WhatsApp’s new Sticker feature allows iOS users to effortlessly create, edit, and share stickers without leaving the application.
Users can create stickers from their photos or personalize existing ones—all within the WhatsApp app.
Unlike other sticker-creating methods, WhatsApp’s innovation eliminates the need for cumbersome dragging and dropping from the image gallery or relying on unofficial third-party apps.
The spotlight of this new feature is its robust security, underpinned by WhatsApp’s renowned end-to-end encryption.
