WhatsApp stickers step up the fun while texting your friends or family. Apart from the inbuilt stickers, WhatsApp allowed you to import stikers from third-party apps. Also, you would have to head to third-party apps to create your own sticker packs. WhatsApp now lets you create your own stikers without installing any of these third-party sticker makers.
Let’s find out how you can create your own WhatsApp stickers right from the WhatsApp and without using any other apps.
