Is it free to make WhatsApp stickers?

Yes. Sticker Maker lets you make and add WhatsApp stickers for free — no subscription needed and no watermark on your stickers.

Do WhatsApp stickers work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Sticker Maker works on both iOS and Android, and the packs you create are added straight to WhatsApp on either device.

Can I make stickers from my own photos?

Absolutely. Pick any photo, the app removes the background on your device, then you can add Arabic or English text and emoji.

How many stickers can a WhatsApp pack have?

WhatsApp supports up to 30 stickers per pack. Sticker Maker lets you build and fill packs in a few taps.

How to Make WhatsApp Stickers (Free, No Watermark)

WhatsApp stickers are the fastest way to react in a chat — funnier than an emoji and more personal than a GIF. The good news: you can make your own WhatsApp stickers for free, from any photo, in about a minute. This guide walks through the whole thing, plus how to grab ready-made packs if you'd rather skip the work.

What you'll need

A phone running iOS or Android
The free Sticker Maker app
A photo (a pet, a friend, yourself) — or nothing at all if you just want ready-made packs

That's it. No account, no design skills, and no watermark on anything you create.

How to make a WhatsApp sticker from a photo

Open Sticker Maker and tap "Create". Pick a photo from your gallery, or take a new one.
Let the app cut out the subject. The background is removed automatically, right on your device — your original photo never leaves your phone.
Tidy the edges if needed. Pinch to zoom and erase or restore any bits by hand.
Add text and emoji. Drop on Arabic or English text, pick a font and color, and add emoji or effects to give it personality.
Save it to a pack. Build a new pack or add to an existing one. WhatsApp packs hold up to 30 stickers.

How to add your sticker pack to WhatsApp

Once your pack has at least three stickers:

Open the pack and tap "Add to WhatsApp".
Confirm when WhatsApp asks to add the pack.
Open any chat → tap the sticker icon → your new pack is right there, ready to send.

The same steps work on iPhone and Android — the pack lands in your WhatsApp sticker tray either way.

Add text, emoji, and effects

Stickers hit harder with a few words on them. In the editor you can:

Add Arabic or English text with calligraphy-style fonts
Stack emoji, borders, and effects like hearts and sparkles
Resize, rotate, and recolor anything until it looks right

This is what turns a plain cut-out into a reaction your friends will actually use.

No watermark — ever

Some sticker apps slap a logo on every sticker. Sticker Maker doesn't. Everything you export is clean, full-resolution, and yours.

Prefer ready-made? Browse free packs

Not in the mood to design? You don't have to. There are hundreds of free, ready-to-send packs for every mood — just open one and add it to WhatsApp:

Tips for stickers that pop

Use clear, well-lit photos — the auto-cutout loves clean edges.
Keep text short. One or two words read best at sticker size.
Make a themed pack (your cat, your group chat, a running joke) so the whole set feels connected.

That's all there is to it. Whether you make your own or grab a ready-made pack, you'll be sending custom WhatsApp stickers in under a minute.
