Did you guys notice the impressive stickers on WhatsApp from your contacts? During this Diwali, I received some Diwali wishes from my friends on WhatsApp but unfortunately, those messages weren’t opening due to the old WhatsApp version. When I updated my WhatsApp to the latest version, I saw some really impressive Diwali wishes from my contacts in the form of the all-new stickers that WhatsApp introduced a few days ago.
I also forwarded those stickers to my contacts to wish them Diwali as I really liked them. But, when I tried to send new stickers myself instead of forwarding them, I didn’t find any option in my WhatsApp.
Actually, that time the WhatsApp stickers weren’t rolling out for everyone but for a few range of people just for testing and that’s why I was only able to forward sticker messages instead of sending new stickers from my store like emojis and GIFs.
But, today I found a new update to WhatsApp and got to know that these WhatsApp stickers are now rolling out for every Android and iOS user. So you can find a sticker icon in your WhatsApp to start sending the selected stickers according to your need.
It might be a smiling teacup or a crying broken heart, it will be a very new way of expressing your feelings and thoughts on WhatsApp, and personally, I love this feature. They look great when you’ve had a very clean chat background wallpaper.
