Hi HN, I hope you will enjoy this app. I was inspired to make it because my daughter likes to make little doodles on my iPad, and I thought it would be fun to add a "sticker" effect so they stand out better against a solid background... then I thought it would be fun to turn it into a Messages sticker app; next thing you know Sticker Doodle was born. I launched the app with translations in English, Spanish, German, I…

Would it support Messenger?

Your app feels really clean! I like the dropping buttons when you want to delete a sticker and the sticker effect when you view a sticker and you pull it up or down. iCloud Sync also works like a charm! Hope you manage to get Whatsapp support in the near future ;)

Are stickers the new Emojis? Every app seem to have a slightly different implementation and they don't really interoperate well. Can this tool be used for WhatsApp stickers? And how different are Slack and Discord Stickers? I wonder if we'll see some standardization in the future akin to the addition of emojis to Unicode.

I think the problem with emojis is that everyone has the same options to pick from - if you have stickers you can express yourself in a way that fits more your own style(?)

Brazilian Portuguese is huge too.

Nicely done!

Feature request: folder or hidden compartment/sticker(s) option?

It seems as if my only artistic contribution to the world will be in the shape of poorly drawn phallic scribbles. (which I have a plan to leverage via iMessage with my wife and fantasy football group text thread) However, I would like to prevent the awkward conversation with my 6 year old if possible about the "cool drawing" daddy keeps making and texting. ;)

FB Messenger doesn't support custom stickers (that I'm aware of). If it does, please let me know!

https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0449.html Now we just have to wait until people leave walled gardens like Slack and Discord and start using the Internet standard for IM.

So it's basically a XML file that defines sticker packs and stickers as png files. No notes on size constraints, image formats, installation, distribution, sharing across apps. Seems like an early stage standard.
