GridSticker turns AI-generated sticker sheets into ready-to-send sticker packs for WhatsApp, Telegram, LINE, and iMessage. Point the camera at something and snap it straight into a sticker. Or drop in a video and get animated ones. Start free — your first pack costs nothing, with every tool and every export included. No watermark, nothing held back. GridSticker Pro is a one-time unlock for unlimited packs after that. One payment, no subscription. Drop in any sheet — 2×2, 3×3, 4×4, anything up to 10×10 — and GridSticker slices it into individual stickers automatically. Tweak the grid by hand if it gets it wrong. Then ship the pack to WhatsApp or Telegram in one tap, build a LINE Creator ZIP ready for upload, send a real sticker pack to iMessage, or save the high-res PNGs to Photos.
