Twitter had recently launched its Snapchat-like ephemeral stories “Fleets” and on Wednesday, the company announced that they will be allowing the users to add stickers to their Fleets. The new update will be available for both Android as well as iOS users.
Now you can express yourself better in the Fleets by simply adding stickers through the smiley face icon present at the bottom of the screen. All the stickers available in the pack are animated by Twitter itself, you can simply tag and drag the sticker wherever you want to paste it. Also, in order to increase or decrease the size of a sticker, hold the sticker and pinch it in or out. Twitter has named its animated stickers and emoji a name i.e., “Twemoji”. You can also search for GIFs by typing any word at the search bar. The GIFS are provided by Facebook-owned Giphy and Tenor.
If you are a Snapchat and Instagram user, you won’t find anything new with the Twemoji as well since these work in exactly the same way as Snapchat and Instagram stickers and Gifs do.
Your Fleets just got an upgrade.
