How to use WhatsApp Sticker Maker

Choose a JPG, PNG, static WebP, GIF or short video.
Photos use Static. Choose an animated GIF or video for Animated output, then set your crop and range. Animated exports use the selected FPS.
Preview and download your WebP. This downloads a sticker file; it does not install a WhatsApp sticker pack.

What you can do with this tool

Make a sticker from a JPG or PNG without uploading the image to a conversion server.
Crop an animated GIF or video into a short sticker with transparent padding or a filled canvas.

Settings that make a difference

A photo automatically selects Static. Selecting a different mode cannot create movement in a still image.
Keep the subject large enough to read at sticker size. Use Crop to fill, then adjust the crop position.
The export budgets are 100 KB for static WebP and 500 KB for animated WebP. Shorten a busy clip if automatic quality and FPS reductions cannot fit it.

Common questions

Does this install stickers in WhatsApp?

No. It downloads a WebP file. Adding it to a sticker pack and installing that pack is a separate workflow.

Can I make an animated sticker from a PNG?

A still PNG exports as a static sticker. Choose a genuinely animated GIF or a video for animated output.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. The browser processes the file on your device. The first visit downloads the processing engine; your media is not sent to a conversion server.

Privacy

The editor writes media to a local worker. No media upload endpoint, analytics or ad scripts are implemented. Automated request checks verify no media uploads on the tested processing paths. Cancel terminates the worker; reset releases preview URLs.

Use “Reuse last session file” on the next editor. The service worker holds at most one source file in memory; browsers may discard it between visits.
