How to create AI stickers on WhatsApp

Before you start, make sure your WhatsApp app is updated to the latest version on Android or iOS. The feature is still rolling out, so it may not be available to everyone yet. Once you see it on your phone, here's how it works:

  • First of all, open WhatsApp and go to any chat
  • Now, tap the emoji icon next to the message box
  • Switch to the Stickers tab (the square icon)
  • Tap Create or the plus (+) option for AI stickers
  • Type a short prompt, like:

"Happy New Year celebration"

"Cute cat waving hello"

"Funny good morning sticker"

  • Wait a few seconds while WhatsApp generates options
  • Pick the one you like and send it

If you end up liking the sticker, you can save it and use it again later.

How To Save And Reuse AI WhatsApp Stickers

If you want to save a sticker, then simply:

  • Long-press on the sticker
  • Tap Add to Favourites

Your saved stickers will show up in the favourites section, so you don't have to recreate them every time.
