WhatsApp Expands Features with New Sticker Editor
WhatsApp continues its trend of innovation with frequent testing of new features, often before they even surface in the beta version of the application. The latest development on the horizon is a feature empowering users to craft their stickers.
Unveiled by the vigilant team at WaBetaInfo, the new sticker editor functionality has now emerged in the WhatsApp beta version for Android users. However, this revelation might not be groundbreaking news for iPhone aficionados, as the sticker editor has been part of the iOS repertoire for some time.
The introduction of the sticker editor brings forth a myriad of customization options. Users can seamlessly transform images into stickers and further enhance or modify existing stickers via the "Edit sticker" feature.
Upon selecting an image for sticker conversion, the app seamlessly guides users through the drawing editor, emphasizing the focal points of the image. Moreover, additional sticker options are conveniently accessible at the bottom of the screen, offering users the flexibility to refine their creations beyond the app's initial selection.
Presently, the sticker editor is accessible to a select group of Android users, hinting at a broader rollout in the coming weeks. However, the timeline for integration into the stable version of WhatsApp remains uncertain, with estimates pointing to potential deployment in the coming months.
