In this tutorial, we will be creating two types of stickers: Still and Animated.

Creating Your Photo Sticker (Still Sticker)

Step 1: Choose Your Photo

Start by opening the Photos app on your iPhone. Browse through your images and select the one you want to transform into a sticker.

Step 2: Once the photo is open in full screen, then touch and hold the subject in the photo, and tap Add Sticker. You can also slide up and then once you see a selection glowing line moving around the border of your subject, tap on the subject and choose Add Sticker.

Step 3: The sticker appears in your sticker drawer, which can be accessed from your iPhone onscreen keyboard or Markup tools. Finally, click Done.

You can now send this sticker from any messaging app, email app, or markup tool.

You can also Tap on the Sticker in the sticker drawer to add effect to your sticker. You can add predefined effects such as Outline, Comic, Puffy, and Shiny.

Creating Your Photo Animated Sticker

Creating the animated sticker is almost the same process as creating a still sticker. The important factor is to use a live photo instead of a still photo.

Step 1: Choose Your Photo

Click a new live photo or use an existing live photo. Start by opening the Photos app on your iPhone. Browse through your live images and select the one you want to transform into an animated sticker.

Step 2: Press and hold the Live Photo subject, slide it upward, and then let go of the subject.

Step 3: Tap Add Sticker.

The sticker appears in your sticker drawer, which can be accessed from your iPhone onscreen keyboard or Markup tools. Finally, click Done.

In the same way, you can tap and hold the animated sticker and release the hold to add effect to the animated sticker. You can add effects such as Outline, Comic, Puffy, and Shiny.

Use in Messages

It’s time to share your newly created animated sticker in your Messages. Open the Messages app, tap the + icon next to the text input box, select the Stickers, and choose your fresh animated sticker. Share it with friends, family, or anyone you’re chatting with, and add a sprinkle of animation to your conversations.
