Using step # 3, we need to create at least three images because WhatsApp does not allow to add a sticker pack of less than three images. When you have done with your stickers, launch the second application "Personal stickers for WhatsApp". The app will automatically detect all the stickers pack you have created. You just need to click on "ADD" button and it's done.
You can choose images from different folder if you didn't create any stickers pack. Just click on the "+" icon, select your images, name it and it's done.
