Apple’s iOS 17 arrives today, about a week after the company announced the new iPhone 15, the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 at its “Wonderlust” event. The new OS includes a number of improvements, like StandBy mode. But one of the most impressive new features in the OS is the ability to turn your photos and live photos into custom Live Stickers to send in Messages.
Here’s how you can take your pictures and make them into stickers to send in Messages.
How to make Live Stickers in iOS 17
1. Open your Messages on your iPhone.
2. Go into any text conversation and tap the plus sign (+) next to the text field.
3. Tap Stickers.
4. Tap the folded-over circle near the top-right corner of the Stickers app.
5. Tap the large plus sign (+). This will open your Photos.
6. Select which photo or live photo you want to make into a sticker. Your iPhone will automatically cut the background from the photo.
7. If you’re happy with the sticker, tap Add Sticker in the bottom-right corner of your screen.
