Steps
Pick a photo with a clear subject and a plain or simple background. Busy backgrounds are harder to cut out cleanly.
Open a background remover app or website and load your photo. Let it detect the subject automatically.
Check the cutout edges. Use the erase and restore brushes to clean up stray bits and keep fine details like hair.
Export the image as a PNG with a transparent background. Do not save as JPG, which adds a white background.
Open your sticker maker app and start a new sticker pack. Import the transparent PNG.
Add the PNG to the pack and give the pack a name and icon.
Tap the export or add to WhatsApp button in the sticker app. Confirm when WhatsApp asks to add the pack.
Open a chat in WhatsApp, tap the sticker icon, and select your new sticker to check there are no white corners.
Tips and common mistakes
JPG files cannot hold transparency, so always export as PNG.
Zoom in on the edges before exporting, since small white fringes show up clearly on dark chat themes.
Keep the sticker subject centered and leave a little empty space around it so it is not cropped.
Questions
Why does my sticker still have a white border?
The image was likely saved as JPG or the background remover left a fringe. Re-export as PNG and clean the edges with the erase brush.
Can I make stickers without a sticker app?
WhatsApp needs a sticker pack, so a sticker maker app is the simplest route. Some background remover sites also export directly to WhatsApp.
Do custom stickers work on both Android and iPhone?
Yes. The sticker pack is added through WhatsApp on either system, and the steps are nearly the same.
