From camera roll to group chat, in seconds.
Pick a photo, tap once to lift the subject out, caption it, and share. All of it happens on your phone. No upload, no account, nothing waiting on a server.
Why Sticker Maker
Three things it does differently
Most sticker apps send your photo to a server, then sell you the good parts one unlock at a time. This one goes the other way.
The cut-out runs on your phone
One tap lifts your subject off its background, and the AI that does it runs on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere to be processed, so it works with no signal at all.
Free, and all of it
Every feature is there from the first launch: cut-out, outlines, text, bubbles, emoji, adjustments, animation, export. No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no watermark on your stickers.
Private because there's nothing to collect
No account, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising IDs. Your photos and projects stay in the app's own storage on your device, and we have no server that could receive them.
What you can make
Six tools, one canvas
Every tool has its own colour, the same six you see along the bottom of the app.
Cut out
One-tap background removal - your subject, cut out cleanly. Then add the classic white die-cut outline around it, adjustable to any width.
Text & bubbles
Bold sticker captions and comic speech bubbles in playful fonts, with a thick contrasting outline so they read at sticker size.
Layers
Photos, captions, bubbles, emoji and props all stack as layers. Reorder, hide or delete any of them, and move, scale and rotate each one.
Adjust
Fine-tune brightness, contrast, saturation, hue and opacity per layer, with a live preview on the canvas.
Erase & restore
The AI gets it right almost every time. For the rest, brush away what's left over or paint a missing ear back in.
Frames & GIFs
Turn a few frames into a looping animated sticker, set the playback speed, and export it as a GIF.
Send it anywhere
Made for the chat it's going into
Share to WhatsApp and Telegram through the system share sheet, or save a file and do what you like with it. Group your stickers into packs inside the app, each one tagged with the emoji it stands for.
Finished a pack? Add to WhatsApp hands it to WhatsApp's own sticker picker. Add to Telegram sends the whole pack into Telegram with the pack name ready for @Stickers. That one is a guided handoff rather than a single tap, because that's how Telegram builds packs.
Private by design
Your photos never leave your phone
The app has no servers, no accounts and no analytics. There is nothing for it to send.
Nothing is uploaded
Photos you import, the background removal, your text, frames and packs all happen on your device and stay in the app's private storage.
A sticker only leaves when you share it, to the app you picked in the share sheet.
No account, no sign-in
There's nothing to register for and no profile to fill in. Install it, open it, make a sticker.
No analytics SDKs, no crash-reporting SDKs, no advertising identifiers.
Written down, in plain English
On Android the cut-out can use Google ML Kit, which fetches its model through Play Services. That's the model coming down, never your photo going up.
The full policy spells out exactly what happens where.
Why it's free
Because it costs nothing to run
Free usually means the money comes from somewhere else: ads, a subscription, or the data you hand over without noticing. This one is different for a boring reason. Every sticker is made on your phone, so there are no servers to pay for and no bills that scale with the number of people using it. Nothing to recoup means nothing to sell you, and nothing to collect about you.
Before you install
Questions people ask first
Does it work offline?
Yes. Editing, background removal and export all run on your device, so you don't need a connection to make a sticker. On Android the cut-out can use Google ML Kit, which downloads its on-device model once through Play Services. Devices without it fall back to a bundled model.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. Photos you import, the AI cut-out and everything you add on top stay on your device. We have no server that receives them. A sticker leaves your phone only when you share it, and from there it's handled by whichever app you sent it to.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up, no sign-in and no profile. Install the app and start making stickers.
Is it really free? Is there a subscription or in-app purchases?
It is free, and that is the whole of it: no ads, no subscription, no in-app purchases, no paid tier, and no watermark on anything you export. Nothing is held back for a later payment.
Does it work with WhatsApp and Telegram?
Yes. You can share stickers to WhatsApp, Telegram or any other app through the system share sheet, or save a transparent PNG, a WebP or an animated GIF and use it however you like. You can also build and organise sticker packs inside Sticker Maker, with per-sticker emoji tags.
A finished pack goes further than the share sheet: Add to WhatsApp puts it into WhatsApp's own sticker picker, and Add to Telegram sends the whole pack into Telegram with its name ready for @Stickers, which is the route Telegram gives apps for publishing a pack.
When is the iPhone version coming?
iOS is planned. The app is built so the same codebase can ship there, but it isn't out yet and I have no date to give you. Android comes first. The App Store badge on this page becomes a real link the day that changes.
