Facebook is allowing its users to comment using stickers. Users can now comment with various stickers on people’s Timeline posts, Group posts and Event posts.
In order to use stickers, you will have to tap the smiley face icon in the bottom-right of any comment field on Facebook and choose the sticker you want to share with others. Prior to this, stickers have been available only within Messages and in the Messenger app.
“I think stickers will allow people to reply to a variety of posts in a more fun way than words alone. You can now easily show your excitement for a post with good news, cheer up a friend who’s feeling down, and express a variety of more nuanced reactions.”
Facebook engineer Bob Baldwin wrote in a Facebook post.
However, stickers are not compatible to Pages on Facebook. They will be available from both mobile and desktop versions of the social network and the iOS and Android apps.
