PNG, JPG, GIF, or WebP

WhatsApp and Telegram stickers are 512×512 WebP files with specific size and naming requirements. Dropvert's sticker maker handles the technical bits automatically — square-cropping, scaling, optional text overlay, and exporting to the right format — so you can turn any photo or screenshot into a sticker in seconds.

How it works

3-step walkthrough

  1. 1

    Drop an image

    Any JPEG, PNG, or WebP. Dropvert center-crops to a 512×512 square and shows you the live preview as a sticker.

  2. 2

    Optional: add text

    Pick a font, color, and shape (pill, rectangle, bubble, or none). Choose top, center, or bottom placement. Useful for reaction stickers and memes.

  3. 3

    Export, or transfer to your phone

    Download the WebP locally, or use the QR-code transfer to send it straight to your phone's WhatsApp/Telegram (requires a free account; transfers expire after a short window).

Frequently asked questions

6 answered

What size do WhatsApp and Telegram stickers need to be?
WhatsApp stickers are 512×512 pixel WebP files, max 100 KB. Telegram is similar at 512×512 but more flexible on format. Dropvert outputs at the right size automatically.
Why WebP instead of PNG?
Both messaging platforms require WebP for sticker uploads. WebP supports transparency and gives much smaller file sizes than PNG, which matters for the per-sticker size limits.
Can I add multiple stickers to a sticker pack?
Dropvert exports individual stickers. To combine them into a pack, use a sticker pack creator app on your phone (Sticker Maker for iOS/Android, or the Telegram @Stickers bot) and import the WebPs Dropvert generated.
How does the phone transfer work?
You sign in (free), click Transfer, and Dropvert uploads the WebP to a temporary URL guarded by a short-lived token. We show you a QR code; scan it with your phone and the sticker downloads directly into your messaging app's share sheet. The link expires in minutes.
Can I make animated stickers?
Not yet — Dropvert's sticker maker outputs static stickers. For animated WebP stickers, the GIF compressor can convert a short GIF to WebP at 512×512.
Will my photo get uploaded if I just download?
No. Local download keeps the image entirely in your browser. Only the phone-transfer flow uploads (briefly, encrypted, auto-expiring), and only with your explicit click.
