From the Files app, scroll down to Internal storage, and tap on WhatsApp. Once youβre there, go to Media and then WhatsApp Stickers. Donβt be surprised if you find a large number of files in that folderβit holds your personal collection of stickers and every one youβve ever received. Even the bad ones.Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen to Select all. If you want to trim the fat and grab only the best of the best, this is the perfect time to do so: choose the ones you want to export by long-pressing one file to activate selection mode, and then tapping on the rest. Once youβre done, hit the Share button (that βless thanβ-like symbol at the top of your screen). If you have a big collectionβmore than 500 stickers, for exampleβitβs possible that nothing will happen when you tap the Share button. Be patientβyour phoneβs just struggling with a heavy load.On the menu that pops from the bottom of the screen, choose Telegram, and then select the chat named Saved messages. This is a chat only you can see, and it will serve as your sticker bank. Unlike WhatsApp, Telegram doesnβt store your favorite stickers in a quick-access reservoir right beside the typing field, but youβll be able to snatch them out of your Saved messages chat and forward them to any of your Telegram contacts. This also means you wonβt have a quick way to save incoming stickers like you did on WhatsApp, so youβll have to forward them from one chat to the other.
What is Telegram?
Telegramβs stand out feature is its encryption scheme that keeps messages and media secure in transit. The scheme is known as MTProto and is based on 256-bit AES encryption, RSA encryption, and Diffie-Hellman key exchange. The result of this complicated and technical-sounding jargon? A messaging service that claims to keep your data safe.Why do we say claims? When dealing with security, you always want to leave room for scrutiny, and a few cryptography experts have criticized the system. Overall, any level of encryption is better than none, but a level of discretion should always be observed with any online connected system, even Telegram.
