WhatsApp is celebrating the arrival of the new season of Stranger Things on Netflix by releasing a special sticker. These stickers can be obtained directly through the WhatsApp Sticker Store on WhatsApp for Android, iOS, and Desktop.
This animated sticker comes to coincide with the presence of the fourth season of the Stranger Things series which will begin airing on Netflix on May 27, 2022. The fourth season of Stranger Things itself will be divided into two parts, with the second half airing in July.
Currently, Stranger Things stickers on WhatsApp can be downloaded by users in Indonesia. This sticker collection contains 11 animated stickers with a total size of 2.2 MB.
Because this sticker collection has a Stranger Things theme, of course the icons used are characters from the popular series, such as Eleven, Steve, Dustin, Nancy, and many more.
According to WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is still in the process of rolling out the Stranger Things sticker to all users on Android and iOS. Because it is still in the scrolling stage, some users may still not find this new sticker on the WhatsApp Sticker Store.
So how do you check the availability of the Stranger Things sticker on your WhatsApp account as well as how to download and use it? Check out the steps below:
Open WhatsApp app on Android, iOS or Desktop
Open one of the chats on the front page of your application
Tap on the emoji icon in the lower left corner of the bar to write a message
After that tap the Sticker icon which is next to the emoji and GIF icon
Tap the plus icon (+) in the upper right corner to enter the WhatsApp Sticker Store
When the Stranger Things sticker is available, you'll see it at the top of the list
Tap the Download icon in the form of a down arrow and wait a moment until the process is complete
After the download is complete, the Stranger Things sticker can be accessed on the Stickers tab along with other WhatsApp sticker collections that you have.
So if your WhatsApp account can't access the Stranger Things sticker, what should you do? Don't worry, you can directly download it via the following special link.
The link is a deep link to access WhatsApp stickers that are not yet available for certain accounts or that are not available in certain countries. No need to worry about security because it is a direct WhatsApp link.
This isn't the first time WhatsApp has released stickers to celebrate the arrival of a Netflix series. Last year, Meta's messaging app released a sticker collection titled 'Sticker Heist' to celebrate the arrival of the latest season of Money Heist.
