We believe everybody deserves to be loved, so we made these heart stickers for free so you can share the love with everyone! So go ahead and share some love in your iMessage conversations by throwing in some heart stickers. Simply drag and drop on top of a message already sent/received or just tap to send the heart itself. ...and don't forget about iMessage's amazing feature of pinching (to size) or rotating the sticker while dragging. There will definitely be more hearts coming soon, so keep an eye out for them. Apple has a great support article to help you get started with using iMessage Stickers if you have never used them: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206906
