************

Verdict

@StickerMakerFromPhotoBot is the quickest way to build a whole sticker pack from photos: send a photo and it removes the background, adds a white outline and puts the sticker into your own pack in about 4 seconds. Its other strength is video stickers — send a video, GIF or round video note and it does the fiddly WEBM conversion for you. It can't add text or drawings; for a single photo sticker with text, Telegram's built-in sticker editor is enough.

## Pros

- Background removal and outline are automatic — no editing.
- Makes real video stickers from ordinary videos, GIFs and video notes.
- Every sticker lands in one personal pack you can share.
- No watermark.

## Cons

- No text, drawings or manual touch-ups.
- Video stickers use only the first 3 seconds.
- Busy backgrounds or several people in one photo can confuse the cut-out.
- HEIC photos aren't accepted for stickers — send JPG, PNG or WEBP.

## Who it's for

- Making a pack of your face, pet, friends or product.
- Turning short clips and GIFs into video stickers.
- Group chats that want their own sticker pack.

## Who it's not for

- Stickers with captions or drawings — use Telegram's built-in editor.
- Professional designers who prepare WEBM files themselves — use @Stickers.

## Choosing the emoji

Every Telegram sticker is linked to an emoji. Send /emoji followed by an emoji, for example /emoji 😎, and the bot uses it for the next stickers.

## Alternatives

- **Telegram's sticker editor** — Open the sticker panel, tap (+) and cut out a photo with one tap; you can add text and drawings ([Telegram blog](https://telegram.org/blog/sticker-maker) ).
