How to add stickers to WhatsApp from Telegram on iPhone - in detail?

Adding stickers to WhatsApp from Telegram on an iPhone involves a few steps, as the two platforms do not natively support cross-platform sticker transfer. However, with some manual effort, you can achieve this by following these detailed instructions:

1. Export Stickers from Telegram:

   • Open the Telegram app and navigate to the chat or group where the desired sticker is located.
   • Tap on the sticker to open it in full size.
   • Press and hold the sticker until a menu appears with options like "Save," "Forward," and "Share."
   • Select "Share" and then choose the option to share via iMessage or another method that allows you to save the image.

2. Save the Sticker Image:

   • Once shared, save the sticker image to your iPhone's photo library. You can do this by tapping on the image in the iMessage window and selecting "Save" from the options that appear at the bottom of the screen.

3. Convert the Sticker to a WhatsApp-Compatible Format:

   • To use the sticker in WhatsApp, it needs to be in a compatible format. While WhatsApp supports images as regular messages, converting them into stickers requires additional steps:
     • Open the Photos app on your iPhone and find the saved sticker image.
     • Tap "Edit" and then crop the image to remove any unnecessary background or text, leaving only the sticker itself.
     • Save the cropped image back to your photo library.

4. Add the Sticker to WhatsApp:

   • Open the WhatsApp app and navigate to a chat where you want to send the sticker.
   • Tap on the "+" icon next to the text input field to access the media options.
   • Select "Photo & Video Library" from the menu that appears.
   • Find and select the cropped sticker image from your photo library.
   • Before sending, you can add text or draw on the sticker using WhatsApp's built-in editing tools if desired.
   • Tap the "Send" button to share the sticker in the chat.

While this method allows you to manually transfer and use Telegram stickers in WhatsApp, it is important to note that this process does not create a permanent addition of the sticker to your WhatsApp sticker collection. Each time you want to use the sticker, you will need to follow these steps again.

For frequent use of specific stickers, consider creating a custom sticker pack in WhatsApp using your favorite images or designs, which can then be easily accessed and used directly within the app.
