Though it’s basically designed to work with Apple Messages, there is a way you can spice up Facebook Messenger with custom Live Stickers on your iPhone. If that’s precisely what you are looking for, let me help you unlock this cool feature.
Use Live Stickers in Facebook Messenger on iPhone
Unlike many other noted iOS features, “Live Stickers” supports third-party apps as well. That means you can use your custom stickers in other apps where the emoji keyboard is accessible.
To ward off any roadblock, ensure that Facebook Messenger is updated on your iOS device. To get it done, head over to the App Store on your device > search for Facebook Messenger and update it.
