Steps To Make Animated Stickers For WhatsApp on Android

After you've downloaded the above requirements and created a new WhatsApp on the modded WhatsApp with a new number then you can continue with the below steps.

The reason for using a modded WhatsApp is because the original WhatsApp version doesn't support animated gif stickers yet so you might encounter errors while trying to add a sticker to the Whatsapp sticker pack.

For this reason, you can add to YoWhatsApp and then send from the demo account to your main WhatsApp account for use. 

That being cleared, let's make our custom animated stickers as soon as possible.

  1. Launch the Animated Sticker Maker App App and click on a new sticker pack
  2. Choose a sticker and publisher name respectively

  4. Next, click on "Add to WhatsApp" and Select "YoWhatsApp"
