Having multiple stickers to use on WhatsApp is a fantastic way to communicate in a much more comical manner; however, the unfortunate thing is that WhatsApp doesn't have that many stickers, and for that purpose, we need to add them from outsources. Luckily, it is not something we should get worried about because we can add stickers by importing them from Telegram and Snapchat, and also downloading them from WeChat.
Part 1: Stickers Preparations for Exporting to WhatsApp
Copy Stickers from Telegram
It is relatively easy:
- Tap on the hamburger icon, and from Settings, click on the bar that says Stickers and Masks.
- Once you choose the sticker pack you want, tap on the more options icons, which are a collection of three dots. You have to copy its link and then go back to the home page.
- Search for the Sticker Downloader Bot, open it and paste the link that you had copied.
- Type in "Settings" in the dialogue box > choose webp format of images > paste the copied link > finally download and unzip the zip files.
Download Stickers from WeChat
It is almost the same as the Telegram. Once the app is open, get into the chat options Me, browse through the pack of stickers you want to download and add to your WhatsApp, then tap on the Download button, and your stickers will download in the form of a zip file.
Bitmoji Preparation for Snapchat Stickers
Adding Snapchat stickers to WhatsApp is relatively easy. All you have to do is to create your Bitmoji; the Bitmoji app can also do it when you install it. Once you have made the Bitmoji, you can browse through the various stickers you can add to WhatsApp.
Part 2: Start to Import Stickers to WhatsApp

For Snapchat users, the game goes a little different; in the case of Snapchat, to download stickers to WhatsApp, you have to change your phone's settings.
