Currently, WhatsApp is used by almost 550 million people in India. Being one of the most widely and wildly popular apps in our country, it allows us to stay connected both personally as well as professionally. Although WhatsApp is quite similar on both Android and Apple phones, there are still some differences due to different operating systems.
The interface of Apple phones is entirely different from any other regular smartphone. In comparison, Android phones are not just reasonable but also convenient to use and allow people to use various apps and customize them accordingly. Although Apple has gained a lot of popularity in our nation in the past few years, majority of users still own Android.
As 2022 is about to end, and we are stepping into the festive season, let us look into better ways of greeting our loved ones by sending them special stickers on our favorite app – WhatsApp. Previously, iPhone did not allow WhatsApp to download and add stickers from a third-party app. But recently, a new feature has rolled out which does not limit iPhone users to just the default stickers.
As the new year is around the corner, it’s time to download “happy new year 2023” stickers on WhatsApp and wish your friends and family. Though WhatsApp has come up with several new stickers, it is always fun to explore more options as you might end up finding something even better to give a personal touch through your stickers. Follow the step-by-step guide given below to download and send stickers on WhatsApp and get started!
For Android Users:
1.Check for the latest updates
Many times, some features may not be visible on the app in case it is not updated, or you may be unable to download WhatsApp if your phone is not updated to the latest version of the operating system. So make sure your Android phone and WhatsApp are updated to compatible versions to support the new stickers.

There are plenty of options available on Google Play Store. So first, click on the search bar and search for “Happy New Year 2023 stickers.” Narrow down a few apps; we suggest doing it by reading reviews and trying to select from the most downloaded ones, as the chances of such apps being malware are fewer. Now go ahead and download your preferred app.
3.Open the new app and select a sticker pack
Once the app is downloaded, open it and get familiar with the user interface. If you’ve downloaded multiple apps, then check out all of them and pick your favorite.
