#How to Use Sticker Packs in Signal

Just like WhatsApp, you can use sticker packs in Signal. The encrypted messaging app offers a couple of sticker packs to get you started. If those aren’t enough, you can download awesome third-party stickers and use them directly in Signal.

How to Use Signal’s Built-in Sticker Packs

Signal’s own sticker packs are enough to get you started. Like everything else in Signal, the stickers are also secured using end-to-end encryption. The steps are slightly different based on your device.

If you’re using Signal on your iPhone, first, open a conversation, then tap the sticker button from the text box.

Here, tap the “+” button from the top-right corner.

You’ll now see all the available stickers. You can tap on a sticker pack to see all the stickers in the pack. Tap the Download button to install the sticker pack.

You’ll find the sticker pack at the top of the stickers section. Select the sticker pack from the top and tap a sticker to send it in the chat.

If you’re using an Android device, go to a conversation and tap the sticker button that’s on the left side of the text box.

Here, select the stickers button and tap the “+” button to add a new sticker pack.

Now, tap the Download button next to the sticker pack.

Once that’s installed, you can switch between sticker packs from the bottom of the stickers section. Tap a sticker to send it in the chat.
