On the Meta-owned platform, for sending out stickers users must need to have sticker packs installed. To install the app, Android users can simply go to the Google Play Store and download sticker packs. Just search for New Year stickers and you should find plenty.
Now, after installing the app, users would be able to should see multiple groups of stickers called sticker packs. These sticker packs can each be manually installed so you can only stuff your phone with the ones you actually want.
Next, users must find a button to add each sticker pack. This will usually either be a ‘+’ sign on the right of the individual packs or an ‘add’ prompt on the bottom. Tap on it to install the pack. Remember, you can install multiple sticker packs as well.
