iOS 18 Sticker Issue
A good year later, Apple fixed the issue with stickers not working in iMessage. And, it also repopulated with all the previous stickers that were missing. FINALLY!

the "Add sticker" option is there . The sticker "briefly" appears in the "stickers" but it quickly disappears and it's not saved. Heavy sigh ...
I actually have an iphone13 where the switch was activated and everything has always worked. And then I have an iPhone 15 pro with the switch deactivated and stickers have never worked. So it is random at best. There seem to be something in the PRo versions?
What worked for me is doing a full reset. Backed up my iPhone 16 promax first, Erased all content, then restored the backup. A drastic step but I have tried all other options to no avail. An Apple support person even assisted me before but didn’t solve the problem.
An App that had crashing and freezing problems before was solved after my full reset. Good luck.
I finally have stickers on my 16PM. After nothing else worked, I ended up doing:
1) Backup
2) Erase All
3) Restore from Backup
The restore took a while, but everything seems to be working now.
Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.
Oh no. I’m sorry it’s still not working for you. None of the other fixes worked for me until I installed IOS 18. I figured they finally fixed it for good. Hope you can figure it out. 🤞🏻
I can load stickers, but the special effects, like borders, are gone. 😕
How do you fix it? Mines not working
I never lost the add effects option! The effect just wouldn’t appear when I selected it, and the sticker was moved to a message.
it self-fixed. Thank you, though.
I’m sorry that many of you still have an issue with the stickers not working. Mine finally began working again after the latest update. I thought they had fixed it properly but apparently not. 😕
Same thing with my 16PM once transferred all my stuff over stickers quit working.
Why is a ‘sticker’ function even mentioned if it doesn’t function. Perhaps it’s intended to antagonise people
Photos must be the worst application I have ever come across.io18.1 mini ipad
Just tried this on my 16 Pro Max (18.1.1) and it did not work. Too bad, but I am glad it worked for you.
i turned off group stickers with emojis and then it worked, then turned it back on. fixed! please try and let me know how it goes!
