WhatsApp is rolling out a long-awaited feature for iPhone users with the new iOS update (version 25.31.75) that allows the creation and direct saving of custom stickers. Previously available only on Android beta, this tool lets users add new stickers to personal packs without needing to send them first, simplifying sticker management.
The update introduces a “Save” button next to the Send option on the sticker creation screen. Users can tap it to either add the sticker to an existing pack or create a new one, making organization more intuitive and seamless. The feature is particularly useful for those who enjoy personalizing chats without interrupting ongoing conversations.

Currently, the sticker-saving function is being gradually rolled out, so not all iOS users will have immediate access. Beta testers are likely to see it first, with broader availability expected in the coming weeks. Once fully implemented, the update will align the sticker experience across both Android and iOS platforms.
To use the feature, users must update WhatsApp to version 25.31.75, open a chat, go to the sticker tab, create a sticker using photos from their gallery or camera, edit if desired, and tap the Save button to store it in a pack for later use.
