From time to time an application sneaks into the App Store that takes advantage of the goodwill or ignorance of users to get money, that is, they are a scam. It is not the first time that we see something like this in the App Store and it will not be the last, unfortunately.
One of the most talked about cases in recent days is that of the application Stickers for Whatsapp, an application that by its name, makes us imagine that it adds stickers to the most used instant messaging client for mobile phones in the world today. Unfortunately, this application does not add any type of sticker to the application, the only thing it offers us is a catalog of images that we can copy into the device's memory and, later, we can paste it in the WhatsApp conversation to send it to our contacts.
The application could be called 'Stickers' but to attract customers, have added the tagline 'for Whatsapp' and they have also included screenshots of the messaging client so that it really seems that it integrates perfectly.
Where does the fever for stickers come from? Line, WhatsApp's most direct rival today, is the one that has made them fashionable making people also pay to be able to use exclusive packs of stickers that can also be given to other users. In the case of Line, the stickers are perfectly integrated into the application, being accessible from an interface very similar to that of the iOS keyboard.
In view of this success, Facebook has also joined the car of stickers and it has included them in its official application, in the Facebook page manager and in Facebook Messenger.
Finally and in a desperate attempt to confuse the user, Stickers for Whatsapp uses a very elaborate deception technique It will last until people really realize that the app is worthless. The fact is that despite all the negative evaluations that it currently has, the application continues to be in the highest positions of downloads.
Hopefully with this review, Let's help Stickers for Whatsapp sink into the App Store and we will never see it again in the top of the most downloaded payment applications.

Thank you very much and very interesting explanation. They follow each other
Well, as long as they are free and WhatsApp does not allow us to download packs like line, or have more options ... they don't seem like bad applications to me, in fact now I use this and it works very well for me.

Good list of applications, I wanted to add the application "Christmas Emojis for Messages" which is the best to send cute icons through iMessage, WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger.
In my opinion it is the best.
