Step 1: Select a Media File Within a ChatTo add a time or location sticker, open a conversation and either tap on the '+' button to the left of the text entry field at the bottom (iOS) or the paperclip and camera buttons on the right-hand side within the text field (Android). From there, either select "Photo & Video Library" (iOS) or "Gallery" (Android) from the prompt that appears. Your gallery will now appear, so choose the media file you want to share with your contacts. If you're using an iPhone, you can also choose a GIF by tapping on "GIFs" on the lower left corner of the screen.

Step 2: Select a StickerAfter selecting a media file, tap on the smiley face icon along the top of the screen for both iOS and Android, then select a sticker that you'd like to paste onto it. You have the option of choosing between time in the form of digital and analog clocks, along with a location sticker that pins where the media was recorded or captured.

Step 3: Edit Sticker & Send Media FileIf the default central position of the sticker obstructs the file you want to share, you have the option of moving the sticker and placing it on a more ideal position by dragging it around your screen. You can also change your sticker from dark to light simply by tapping on it.If you wish to remove the sticker, simply tap and hold onto it, then drag and drop it onto the trash bin that appears on the upper-left corner of the screen. Once you're satisfied, tap on the blue send button to share your media file.
