A practical guide to creating animated WhatsApp stickers on iPhone with PicSticker, including clip selection, AI auto cutout, captions, borders, and export steps.

Choose a short, readable clip

Start with a two to four second moment that shows one clear emotion. A nod, smile, pet reaction, blink, or tiny celebration works better than a busy scene.

Use Auto Cut before adding text

Remove the background first, then add captions and borders. This keeps the subject readable on light, dark, and patterned chat backgrounds.

Export as a complete pack

Create at least three related stickers before exporting. A focused pack is easier to save, remember, and reuse than a single isolated reaction.
