WhatsApp sticker maker
Make WhatsApp stickers without an app
Most sticker makers ask you to install something first. This one is a web page: drop a photo, get a 512×512 transparent WebP under 100 KB, save it, and import it into WhatsApp. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is installed.
Drop a photo, or pick one from your device
JPG, PNG or WebP · up to 10 at once · nothing is uploaded
First run downloads a ~40 MB model once. After that, stickers take a second.
How it works
- 01
Drop a photo
Any JPG, PNG or WebP. Up to ten at a time if you are building a whole pack.
- 02
It is cut out and resized
Background removed on your device, subject centred, white outline added, compressed under 100 KB.
- 03
Save and import
Download as WebP, then add it to WhatsApp from the sticker tab in any chat.
Adding the sticker to WhatsApp
WhatsApp imports stickers from your own gallery, not from a website, so the last step happens inside the app. Both routes below take under a minute once the file is saved.
Android
- 1. Save the WebP to your gallery (Downloads folder works).
- 2. Open any chat in WhatsApp and tap the emoji icon, then the sticker tab.
- 3. Tap the plus button, then “Create” and pick the saved file.
- 4. Crop if WhatsApp asks, then tap save — the sticker joins your pack.
iPhone
- 1. Save the WebP to Photos. iOS 17 and later keeps transparency for WebP.
- 2. In WhatsApp, open the sticker tab and tap the plus button.
- 3. Choose “Photo” and select the saved sticker.
- 4. Confirm — WhatsApp stores it in your personal sticker pack.
Why make the sticker here first?
WhatsApp shrinks whatever you give it. If the file has a full background, the subject ends up small and boxed in white. Cutting the background and fitting the subject to 512×512 before importing means the sticker fills the bubble instead of floating inside it.
Frequently asked questions
What size does a WhatsApp sticker need to be?
A WhatsApp sticker is 512×512 pixels with a transparent background, preferably WebP under 100 KB. Animated stickers follow the same rules but are WebP sequences limited to 500 KB and a few seconds. Every file from this tool already matches the static sticker spec.
Can I make stickers on WhatsApp Web?
WhatsApp Web cannot import sticker files — sticker packs are managed from the phone app. Make the file here on any device, send it to yourself, and import it from the phone.
Do I need to install a sticker app?
No. This page replaces the part those apps do badly: cutting the background and enforcing the size limit. WhatsApp itself handles the import.
How many stickers can I make at once?
Ten per batch. Drop them all in, the tool processes them one by one and gives you a single ZIP with every WebP inside — usually the fastest way to build a full pack of 30.
Is it really free?
Yes. The cut-out runs on your device rather than on a server, so there is no per-image cost to pass on and no daily limit. AI text-to-sticker generation is the only metered tool.
