How to Favorite and Organize Frequently Used Stickers in a Messaging App

Tap through each step to see how to keep your most-used stickers within easy reach.

  1. Open the sticker panel in a chat

    Tap the sticker icon in the message bar to open your sticker panel.

  2. Go to the favorites (or saved) tab

    Look for a star or "Favorites" tab along the top of the sticker panel.

  3. Long-press a sticker to add it to favorites

    Long-pressing a sticker you use often brings up an option to add it to your favorites.

  4. Reorder your favorites list

    In the favorites tab, drag a sticker to rearrange it so your most-used ones sit at the front.

  5. Why it's useful

    Instead of scrolling through dozens of sticker packs every time, keeping your most-used stickers in one favorites tab lets you send them in a couple of taps.

Stop scrolling through every pack

The more sticker packs you collect, the longer it takes to find the one you actually want. Favoriting the handful you use constantly cuts that search down to a single tap.

Free stickers can be favorited too

A sticker doesn't need to be from a paid pack to be favorited β€” any sticker already in your collection, free or paid, can be added the same way.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I remove a sticker from favorites later?

Yes β€” long-pressing a sticker already in your favorites list brings up a "remove from favorites" option, so you can update the list anytime.

Is there a limit to how many stickers I can favorite?

Most apps cap the favorites list at a set number, so once you hit the limit you'll need to remove an old favorite before adding a new one.
