WhatsApp has begun testing a new shortcut that allows users to send stickers to their contacts fast. The modification was initially only available to Android beta testers, but it may be made available to the general public in the coming days. It comes only a few days after WhatsApp launched a unique sticker generator for desktop and web users, allowing them to quickly design new stickers. Stickers have long been a popular way for people to express themselves using little images on Meta's (formerly known as Facebook's) instant messaging service.
Third-party developers might also create stickers for the app. WhatsApp for Android beta version 2.21.24.11 has included a dedicated shortcut to help user’s easily forward stickers, according to WhatsApp features tracker WABetaInfo. It appeared for several beta testers in previous versions as well. The forward shortcut appears next to the sticker in your chat thread, allowing you to share it with others on WhatsApp right away. To share your sticker, press the shortcut and then choose the contact with whom you wish to share it.
This eliminates the need to tap and hold the sticker before using the Forward button on the top bar to share it with your contacts. WhatsApp already offers a forward picture shortcut that works in a similar way and allows you to rapidly share the photographs in your discussions.You may test the update by downloading the newest WhatsApp for Android beta version after signing up for the Google Play Beta testing program as a WhatsApp tester.
You may also examine the changes by sideloading the beta version's APK file from APK Mirror. In October 2018, WhatsApp launched stickers to its app. Since then, the messaging app has seen a slew of upgrades aimed at making it easier for users to exchange stickers on the platform. It also started allowing Web and desktop users to create personalized stickers to share on the platform in October of this year.
