  "account": "Diwali 2026 brings an opportunity to exchange festive wishes with friends and family through WhatsApp stickers. The app offers several ways to find, create and share personalized greetings. Users can download sticker packs directly from WhatsApp or explore third-party applications offering festive designs. To create custom stickers, users can add text, emojis or drawings to photos from their phone galleries. AI sticker creation is available in some countries and generates up to four designs based on a text description. Once users have found the desired stickers, they can send them individually or in group conversations, along with a personal message to make their greetings more meaningful. For those who prefer not to use pre-made designs, WhatsApp also allows users to turn their own photographs into custom stickers. These custom stickers can be saved in a favourites tab for future use.",
