Place stickers on a conversation

You can add stickers on message bubbles in conversations, and angle the stickers or make them different sizes. You can also place a sticker on top of another sticker.

  1. Open the Messages app 

     on your iPhone, then start a new message or open a conversation.

  2. Tap 

    the Apps button

    tap Stickers, then tap an icon—such as 

    the Live Stickers button

    the Emoji button

    or 

    the Memoji Stickers button

    —in the top row to browse a sticker pack.

  3. Drag a sticker onto a bubble, then do any of the following:

    • Adjust the angle: Rotate a second finger around the finger dragging the sticker.

    • Adjust the size: Move a second finger closer to or away from the finger dragging the sticker.

    • Your recipients see the sticker as soon as you place it on a message.

    To find out who sent a sticker in a conversation, touch and hold the sticker, then tap Sticker Details.
