The tweet from WaBeta Info, which gives accurate rumours on WhatsApp, says that whenever there will be a WhatsApp Sticker pack, a green dot will appear on the ‘+’ button. As per the pictures, the user has an option to update and download the sticker pack.

There is no information about the date when the Sticker pack will be available.

Some of the stickers show Unchie and Rollie with hearts around them, both of them giggling or saying ‘hi’. The Bibimbap shows the casserole in various expressions such as an angry one, and an excited one.

Stickers, off late, have become a fun tool for people to converse or add them in their Stories. It is high time that WhatsApp brings this feature in their app.

WhatsApp has been dealing with the problem of fake news for quite sometime, therefore it has brought features to tackle this problem. It includes labeling messages as forwarded if it is an information which has been circulating and has not originated from the sender.
