For a long time, WhatsApp users have needed external tools and applications to be able to bring their own stickers to life, because although we can download countless sticker packs of cats and other themes, it does not there is nothing better than immortalize your pet or a moment from your favorite series on a sticker to share in the messaging application.
NOW, WhatsApp will finally offer its own sticker editor, integrated directly into the application. The feature is already starting to become available to Android beta users, so it shouldn’t take too long to reach all users.
This is the new WhatsApp sticker editor
The tool for creating and editing stickers in WhatsApp reached the beta version of the iOS application in January this year, but it took a little longer to reach the version of the application for devices Android. However, users registered in the beta version of the application They already receive the new function.
The goal of the new sticker editor is that we can use our own images to create the stickers, even adding words, phrases and emojis. It doesn’t matter if it’s a photo we took with our mobile camera or an image downloaded from the Internet, the tool allows us to create exactly the sticker we need for every occasion.

Using the tool is quite simple and its operation is very similar to the version for iPhone, which Xataka Móvil already tested at the beginning of this year. The Android version, as revealed in WaBetaInfo, also allows you to select an image from the gallery and the same application will analyze it and will crop the subject, removing the background from the image.
Then, WhatsApp will surround the sticker with a white outline, and finally, it is possible to modify it to add emojis and texts, if desired. Once ready we can send it and also save it to our favorite stickers listto use it again when we want and the occasion warrants it.
This feature is now available for Android beta users, especially the version 2.24.6.5. It’s not yet clear when the new sticker editor will be available to all WhatsApp users on Android, but it shouldn’t take too long considering that the feature is already available in beta on Android and iOS.
