Tired of the same old stickers? WhatsApp now lets you create your own custom stickers right inside the app. Here is how to make personalized stickers in 2026.
Create a Sticker From a Photo
- Open any chat and tap the plus icon or sticker icon.
- Choose Create or Sticker maker.
- Pick a photo from your gallery or take a new one.
- Crop around the subject, the app can auto-cut the background.
