Stickers not working on iPhone 16 Pro

APPLE FIX THIS PROBLEM ISTG I AM LOSING MY MIND. I WILL SWITCH TO VERIZON IF YOU DONT FIGURE THIS GARBAGE OUT.

Please Apple fix this issue it’s been going on now as long as I’ve had my iPhone 16 Pro Max and it’s driving me crazy. Has anyone heard anything from them? I might call them tomorrow.

Updated to 18.1 and still not working

Same.

Well, this is the “stickergate” of iPhone 16 series. lol

Updated to IOS18.1.

still NOT working.

Same. I can’t add stickers. The + is there and when I added it it just disappears.

I’m having the same problem . It makes me want to go back to my iPhone 14 Pro because I had tons of stickers on there . My iPhone 16 pro max seems like it’s having so many problems

I fixed the stickers not working! I had to back up the phone, delete the phone and restore it. That fixed it and I got my library of stickers back that I created!

iOS 18.1.1 - stickers still not working…😒

Same. I can go through the motions of long-pressing a photo and “add sticker”. I can also go to stickers and click the “+” to add a sticker but the stickers just sort of disappear after selecting them and can never be recalled. I’ve been having to pull out my iPhone SE to use stickers and the swap back over to my 16 pro… I use that feature all the time hope it’s fixed soon.

Seems like I’m not the only one but yeah my stickers haven’t been saving it was one of my favorite features on my iPhone 13 Pro but this is disappointing especially since one of the updates for this phone was gonna allow us to actually put the stickers in the messages not just paste on top so I would love if this gets fixed soon

So the fix that worked for me after contacting Apple support was to “erase all content and settings”. Then, when setting up the phone, install from a previous backup. We tried a number of steps, but this was what finally resolved the issue for me. It only came about after several attempts without success that we decided to just factory reset and use a previous backup to pull back in all my customizations and settings from my initial setup of the phone. It appears that when activating and transferring from a previous phone to the iPhone 16, during the process, the stickers function “breaks”. So, if you want to give it a try, erase all content and settings and start fresh using a recent iCloud backup for your new phone.

Same. just did the most recent ios18 update that was offered this morning and it still is not working. when i try to make a sticker in either messages or from my camera roll directly, the sticker either deletes immediately or just gets stuck to my screen for a few seconds and freezes my

phone before it disappears
