How to Create a WhatsApp Sticker Pack: Step-by-Step Guide

October 23, 2026 · 4 min read

A sticker pack is just a named collection of stickers. WhatsApp lets you create your own packs directly in the app, and with AI stickers you can fill a pack with a consistent, personal style in about 15 minutes.

Step 1: Generate your stickers

Create 8-30 stickers around one theme. Themed packs feel intentional - try "morning greetings", "work reactions", or "inside jokes with your best friend". Use StickerAI to turn phrases into stickers, choosing the same style for the whole pack so it looks cohesive.

Step 2: Create the pack on Android

  1. Open WhatsApp → open any chat → tap the sticker icon in the toolbar.
  2. Tap the "+" (create) icon in the sticker tray.
  3. Choose "Create sticker" from your gallery and pick your first PNG.
  4. Tap the sticker to add emoji reactions if you like, then save.
  5. Repeat for each sticker. When you're done, tap the pack name to edit it.

Step 2 (iPhone): Create the pack on iOS

  1. Install the official WhatsApp Sticker Studio app (by WhatsApp).
  2. Create a new pack, add a name and author.
  3. Add your AI sticker PNGs.
  4. Tap "Add to WhatsApp" - the pack installs into your sticker tray.

Step 3: Publish and share

To share a pack with friends on iPhone, open the pack in Sticker Studio and use the share link. On Android, the built-in pack creator keeps packs private to you - for sharing, use a sticker maker app like "Sticker Maker" which generates a share link.

Pack quality checklist

💡 Tip: mix serious and funny stickers in one pack. Packs with a little humor get used more often in group chats.
