Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Download your emoji as a PNG from EmojiForge.

  2. 2

    Open the Photos app on your iPhone and save the image to your camera roll.

  3. 3

    Open iMessage and start a conversation.

  4. 4

    Tap the + button next to the text field, then tap Photos.

    iOS 16 and earlier: tap the camera icon.

  5. 5

    Select your emoji PNG and send it as an image.

  6. 6

    For iOS 17+: Long-press any image in a conversation → tap 'Add Sticker' to add it to your sticker drawer for reuse.

    This creates a live sticker you can use in any iMessage conversation.

💡 Pro Tips

  • iOS 17+ supports custom stickers natively — just long-press any photo in Messages.
  • Use a transparent background PNG for the cleanest sticker look.
  • You can also use the Stickers app to create a full sticker pack.
