Hello everybody!
In today’s video, you will see how to create your own sticker pack
in Viber, a popular messenger.
Now, Viber offers a new feature - you can create your own sticker packs.
It means you can turn any photo, meme /mi:m/ or phrase into special stickers and send it
into a chat with another user so that you can express your emotions without any words.
At the moment, this feature is available on Viber for Android only.
If you are using this messenger on PC or iPhone, you'll be able to receive such stickers in
a chat, forward them to other users or download them from the sticker market.
And the goal of this video is to find out what exactly you should do to create a sticker
pack of your own.
So, let’s begin.
How to create a sticker pack In order to create your own sticker pack,
open Viber - More - Sticker Market - tap “Create Stickers” button in the upper right corner,
next to the gear icon.
Make up a name for your sticker pack so you can find it easily later.
Add a description to always know what it is about.
This is particularly important for public packs.
The first sticker you create will be the pack's thumbnail in the sticker menu
One more thing is to decide if you want this pack to be public or private.
How to create a sticker Now let’s have a closer look at creating
a sticker of your own.
Tap the plus button and choose from the three options: “Gallery,” “Camera” or “Just
doodle.”
Let’s put first thing first.
Tap “Gallery”, find a photograph and select it.
Now you can edit the photo or add various elements:
“Magic wand” - remove the background.
Use your fingers to change the photo's angle or zoom and focus on a particular detail.
With the “Text” button you can write anything on your stickers.
Tap “Stickers” to add stickers from Viber's collection.
Use “Doodles” to add your own freestyle shape, picture and text.
When your sticker is ready, tap “Save.”
Each pack can have up to 24 stickers, and you can create no more than 20 packs.
How to edit or delete a sticker Any sticker can be edited or deleted.
You can do it at any time but only before the sticker is published.
Editing after publication is not supported.
Tap the “x” icon at the top of any sticker in the pack page to delete it.
Tap on any sticker to edit it.
How to publish a sticker pack When you are finished with making stickers,
the last step is publishing them.
Tap “Create Pack” at the bottom of the screen to publish your pack.
Remember: as soon as you create a sticker pack, it can’t be edited.
Before publishing, double-check everything, and then tap that button.
How to send a sticker to a chat After publication, your sticker pack will
appear in the sticker menu.
In order to send a sticker, open the menu and find it on the list.
Open it and click on the sticker you want to send.
That’s all - now anyone on Viber can see and receive your stickers, and send them to
other people.
How to use stickers in Viber for Desktop To send stickers from a computer, they should
be uploaded into the messenger first.
Do it by clicking on this icon and opening the sticker panel.
Now click the arrow up to display all your sticker packs.
If you want to add the sticker packs you created to your Viber for Desktop, click on the “Sync”
button.
When everything is synchronized, you will be able to use them from your computer as
well.
Public and private sticker packs As you may have noted, any sticker pack can
be created as public or private.
You can let other Viber users access your sticker pack, or close access to it only when
you create this pack.
When it’s published, you can’t change anything.
If you choose a private sticker pack, you can use its stickers in any chat but no one
else except you can see the whole pack.
However, anyone who receives a sticker form a private pack can forward it to another chat.
A public pack will have a unique link.
Any other user will need this link to download the pack.
This is how you can share a link to a sticker pack with friends and family:
Send a sticker from the pack in a chat, and other people in this chat can tap on the sticker
to download the pack.
Or send the direct link to the sticker pack to any user you prefer.
How to download a user-created sticker pack Now, how can you download a sticker pack created
by another user?
First of all, it should be public.
Secondly, you should either receive a sticker from this pack, or a direct link to the pack.
When you tap on the sticker, you will be redirected automatically to the page where it can be
downloaded.
Every sticker pack is assigned a unique link.
To let other users download it, share this link with the people.
User-created packs in Viber are absolutely free or charge.
You can create, download and use them without any payments.
How to delete a sticker pack Any sticker pack you created can be deleted
easily.
However, the packs downloaded by other users will remain in their collections.
In order to delete a sticker pack, open the sticker menu, tap the gear icon, or open “Settings”
– “Sticker Market” - the gear icon.
Before you do it, remember that deleting it from Viber is a one-way street, and you can
never get it back.
No one else will be able to download it.
However, anyone who has downloaded the sticker pack before will still have it in their collection.
It may take as long as 2 hours to have the sticker pack deleted.
How to restore sticker packs when moving to a new device
If you are planning to change to a new phone and worry that your special sticker packs
may be gone, calm down.
They can be downloaded to the new device easily.
Tap More, open the “Sticker Market”, then touch “Settings.”
Scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap “Restore my stickers” to have your sticker
packs downloaded to the new phone.
If your sticker pack is a public one, you can download it from the sticker market by
following the direct link.
