How to create your own Telegram sticker pack

A sticker pack is a set of stickers with its own link: people add it to Telegram with one tap and send stickers from the panel. You can create your own pack in two ways: by hand with Telegram's official @Stickers bot — if your stickers are already files — or automatically with @vidsticker_bot, which makes the stickers from photos and videos and puts them in a pack for you.

The fastest way: the pack creates itself

  1. Open @vidsticker_bot and send a photo, video, GIF or round video.
  2. The bot makes a sticker and creates your sticker pack — it sends a link like t.me/addstickers/….
  3. Open the link and tap “Add Stickers” — the pack shows up in your Telegram sticker panel.
  4. From then on every new sticker goes into this pack automatically. The title and order are on the website, in “My stickers”.

The same works in the online editor and the mini app: after “Make sticker”, pick an emoji and tap “Add to pack”. To add from the website, log in with Telegram.

A new sticker doesn't show up in the panel right away: Telegram shows packs from its cache. Don't see it? Close Telegram completely and open it again. Why a sticker doesn't show up

Several packs of your own

One pack for everything gets messy: family stickers, work stickers and memes are better kept apart. Whoever you send a sticker to can open its whole pack, so keep personal stickers in a separate one.

How to add, delete and reorder stickers

On the website open “My stickers” (log in with Telegram) — it shows all your packs and every sticker in them:

How to create a sticker pack by hand with @Stickers

If your stickers are already files, you can build a pack in Telegram's official @Stickers bot:

  1. Open @Stickers and pick a command: /newpack — regular stickers, /newvideo — video stickers, /newemojipack — emoji.
  2. Send the pack name, then a sticker file: a 512 px PNG or WEBP for regular stickers, a WEBM up to 3 seconds and 256 KB for video ones.
  3. Send an emoji for the sticker. Repeat for the rest.
  4. /publish, then a pack icon (or /skip) and a short name for the link.

Add and remove stickers later with /addsticker, /delsticker and /ordersticker. The easiest way to get files in the right format is our editor — the Download button. But if you make the stickers here anyway, it's simpler to add them to a pack right away — no manual assembly.

How to share a sticker pack

Send the pack link — the one the bot gave you (t.me/addstickers/…) — or press and hold a sticker in a chat and open its pack: Telegram shows the whole pack with a Share button. /packs sends links to all your packs.

Questions and answers

How many stickers can a pack hold?

Up to 120 stickers per pack and up to 200 emoji. These are Telegram's limits. When a pack is full, create a new one with /newpack.

Can video stickers and regular stickers share a pack?

Yes. Since 2024 Telegram lets one pack hold stickers of different formats: videos and images together.

How do I create a sticker pack on an iPhone or Android?

The same way: open @vidsticker_bot and send a photo or video — the pack creates itself. Or open vidsticker.com in your phone's browser.

How do I remove a pack from my panel?

In Telegram settings: Stickers and Emoji — swipe the pack left or tap Remove. The pack isn't deleted; you can add it again via its link.

Can others see my sticker pack?

Anyone who gets a sticker from you can open its whole pack. Keep personal stickers in a separate pack.

Is it free?

Yes, packs and stickers are free, no Telegram Premium needed.
