Get 12 stickers in one batch

The AI generates 12 transparent-background stickers at once, with optional animated GIF versions.

Why use KakaMeme for iMessage stickers

Designed for recognizability

KakaMeme aims to retain recognizable facial traits across the pack. Likeness varies with the source photo and generated result, so review before sharing.

12 expressions per pack

Happy, sad, angry, thumbs-up, facepalm… a full emotional range from a single photo, generated in one batch. Review cross-pack consistency before sharing.

Transparent-background source files

Each sticker downloads as a transparent PNG. Some chat platforms require a different format or a separate import step.

Free to try, no subscription

Registration gives you free credits for your first pack. Pay only for what you generate — no monthly fee.

iMessage sticker maker FAQ

How do I add stickers to iMessage?

Save the PNG source images to Photos. On a supported iPhone, open an image, touch and hold the subject, and choose Add Sticker if iOS offers it. You can then find the saved sticker in the Messages sticker drawer; controls may vary by iOS version.

Do I need a special app on my iPhone?

KakaMeme runs in a browser. Apple provides a built-in photo-to-sticker feature on supported iPhone versions, but subject detection and the available controls depend on the image and current iOS release.

Is it free?

Registration gives you free credits for your first 12-sticker pack. After that you pay per generation — no subscription.

Can I use them in other apps too?

The downloads are PNG source images. Other platforms use their own formats, size limits, permissions, and import flows, so prepare and validate each file for the destination before use.

Do animated stickers work on iMessage?

Apple documents animated Live Stickers made from Live Photos. A KakaMeme GIF export does not automatically become an iMessage Live Sticker through the same flow.
