How to make an animated WebP sticker

Some chat apps require animated WebP for stickers and reject GIF outright. LoopSnap encodes true animated WebP on-device, kept under the tight size budget sticker trays demand.

Output

Animated WebP

Compact sticker-grade output, typically well under 1 MB.

Steps

  1. 1Open LoopSnap and tap New Loop.
  2. 2Pick a Live Photo, video, or burst.
  3. 3Choose a sticker destination chip (LoopSnap switches the encoder to animated WebP).
  4. 4Save or Share the sticker.

Tips

  • •Keep loops short and square for the cleanest sticker.
  • •High-contrast subjects read best at small sticker sizes.
  • •The preview is pixel-identical to the exported WebP.

Do it in LoopSnap

LoopSnap handles every step on-device — pick a source, pick where it's going, and export a file that uploads on the first try. No account, no uploads.

Frequently asked questions

What is an animated WebP?

A modern image format that stores an animation in a far smaller file than GIF, which is why many sticker systems require it.

Why not just use a GIF?

Some apps reject GIF for stickers and only accept animated WebP. LoopSnap exports the exact format the destination needs.

Is the WebP encoded on-device?

Yes, using a bundled on-device encoder — nothing is uploaded.
