Sticker

Cultural/Communication

Größere, detailreichere digitale Bilder in Messaging-Apps, oft animiert, die Standard-Emoji ergänzen, aber von ihnen zu unterscheiden sind.

Stickers are a step beyond emoji — they're larger, more detailed, and often animated. While emoji are Unicode characters rendered by fonts, stickers are images distributed through messaging platforms.

Stickers originated in Asian messaging apps (LINE in 2011, KakaoTalk, WeChat) and became a major revenue source through sticker packs. Western platforms like iMessage, WhatsApp, and Telegram later adopted sticker features.

Unlike emoji, stickers are platform-specific and not standardized. You can't send a LINE sticker in WhatsApp. Google's Emoji Kitchen blurs this boundary by generating stickers from emoji combinations.
