WhatsApp rolls out Stickers support

[harlan4096]

Users of the chat application WhatsApp will soon be able to send stickers to chat participants and contacts from within the application.

The new feature is being rolled out as we speak and adds much-requested sticker support to the popular application.

Stickers work pretty much like emoticons in that they can be pushed to any chat with the tap on a sticker icon in the selection interface.

The feature became available after a update to version 2.18.330 today on my Nokia 5 Android phone.

You find the new option next to the existing emoticon and gif option in the application. Just tap on the smiley icon in chat and then on the new sticker symbol that is displayed next to Gif in the selection interface.

Stickers are images with transparent backgrounds that have a size of 512x512 pixels. Individual stickers can't be larger than 100 Kilobytes currently.
