To save a sticker from TikTok comments and use it in WhatsApp, take a screenshot and import the image into Stiko. The app detects and crops the stickers; you choose which ones to keep and export the pack. If the sticker moves, save a screen recording and use the animated feature.

Comments come with a specific challenge: the drawing usually shares space with an avatar, a name, text and buttons. A clean screenshot makes it easier to separate the sticker from those elements. Here you'll see how to prepare the image and what to fix when the result isn't what you wanted.

How to take a useful screenshot of a comment

Find the comment and get the whole sticker on screen before taking the screenshot. Close the keyboard and any menu covering it. If part of it is outside the visible area, scroll the conversation and take another screenshot; cropping can't rebuild what isn't shown.

  • The drawing must be fully visible: pay special attention to the top and bottom edges.
  • Avoid overlays: wait for notifications or temporary controls to disappear.
  • Keep the original file: import the screenshot from your phone before forwarding it or compressing it in another app.
  • Don't enlarge a blurry copy: go back to the comment and take a clearer screenshot if one is available.

If you see several complete stickers on the same screen, you can capture them together. If they're spread across different comments, there's no need to squeeze them into one image: save the screenshots you need and select the pieces you want to combine.

How to separate the sticker from the name and buttons

Import the whole screenshot into Stiko. Automatic cropping saves you from starting from scratch with each image, but a comments screen is less regular than a sticker grid. Review the selections before creating the pack.

  1. Find the drawing in the review. Make sure the selection contains the whole reaction.
  2. Remove anything that isn't a sticker. An avatar or a button may show up as a candidate; take it out of the set.
  3. Adjust the area if it includes unrelated text. Leave out the author's name, the reply count or the interface.
  4. Add a selection if the sticker is missing. In an irregular layout you may need to mark that piece yourself.
  5. Check the result at a small size. Any text that's part of the meme itself should still be readable.

Separating a sticker from the rest of the screen and removing the background of its drawing are different operations. Don't mistake a correct crop for a guarantee of perfect transparency. If the outline can't be told apart or is covered, try a cleaner screenshot.

The guide to cropping several stickers automatically goes deeper into adjusting edges and selections that contain two drawings.

How to add the result to WhatsApp

Save the selected stickers in a Stiko pack and use the WhatsApp export. When WhatsApp opens, complete the confirmation to add the pack. Then look for it in a chat's sticker panel.

Sending the screenshot to a conversation only sends an image. To reuse the reaction as a sticker, you need to create it and add it to your collection. If the pack still doesn't appear after exporting, see what to check when stickers are missing in WhatsApp.

What if the comment sticker moves?

Make a screen recording that shows the full motion. In the current version of Stiko you can select that video to create an animated sticker, adjust the clip and export it in a pack. You don't need to save each frame separately.

Don't scroll the comments while recording: the screen movement would end up in the file too. If the drawing moves within its area, leave some space around it so it isn't cut off during the animation. Follow the animated TikTok stickers guide to prepare the video.

Questions about saving comment stickers

Is copying the TikTok video link enough?

Not for this method. The link identifies the post; it isn't the file of a sticker someone else left in its comments. Start from a screenshot or recording where that sticker is visible.

Can I get a sticker that isn't shown on my screen?

Stiko needs an image or video that contains the drawing. If TikTok never displays it, a screenshot of the empty space or the comment text can't rebuild it. First check that you can see it in TikTok.

Do I have to crop every comment one by one?

You don't have to prepare a cropped file for each sticker before importing it. Stiko handles detection and cropping; you only fix the selections that need it. The clearer the screenshot, the more useful that automation is.

Can I share the pack I created?

Use your own or authorized content and make sure it doesn't include personal data from the screenshot. Finding an image in a comment doesn't mean you have permission to distribute it.
