Sticker Bar is a collection of stickers for every occasion: animals and nature, celebrations, emoji and smileys, comics and cartoons, people, food, fashion, sport, places and art. It lives where you write — inside Messages. IN THE MESSAGES PANEL • Every pack at once, with locked ones marked by a crown. • Turn packs on or off and drag to reorder them, so the panel holds only what you use. • Browse by category: animals and nature, cats, celebrations, love, comics and more. • Favourites: touch and hold a sticker to add it, and it is one tap away next time. • "Frequently used" builds itself from the stickers you send and the ones you copy. • Tap to send, or drag a sticker straight onto the conversation. GIVE A STICKER AN OUTLINE • Touch and hold a sticker, then pick Outline. • Choose a colour and set the thickness, then try it on a light, dark or checkered backdrop. • The eyedropper takes a colour out of the sticker itself. • Reset to the original whenever you like. STICKERS IN ANY APP • Touch and hold a sticker to copy it with a transparent background — paste it into any messenger, into notes or into a story. • Or attach it to the message as a file, for chats that do not take stickers. FREE AND SUBSCRIPTION Free: some of the packs are unlocked from the start. Favourites, frequently used, outlines and copying all work without a subscription. Full Access unlocks every pack. Subscribe for 1 month, 6 months or 1 year; purchases restore on your other devices. WHAT'S NEW The panel has been rebuilt from scratch: every pack at once, categories, favourites and the outline editor. Dark mode, a layout made for iPad, and an interface in English, Russian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Chinese. Subscriptions and restore purchases work the way they should. Requires iOS 18. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS Full Access is an auto-renewing subscription for 1 month, 6 months or 1 year. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; renewal is charged within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage the subscription and turn off auto-renewal in your account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, is forfeited when you buy a subscription.
