Publication number: 20230376186Abstract: Techniques for customizing stickers are described. For example, a social networking system may cause presentation, via a first interface, of a sticker tray associated with an account and may then receive, from the account, an indication of a selection of a sticker in the sticker tray. Based at least in part on the selection, the social networking system may cause presentation of an option to modify the sticker and may receive, from the account, an indication of a selection to modify the sticker. Based at least in part on the selection to modify the sticker, the social networking system may cause presentation of a second interface, including a control usable to modify the sticker. The social networking system may receive user input via the control to modify the sticker and, in some examples, may store the one or more modifications in association with a modified sticker in the sticker tray.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2022Publication date: November 23, 2023Inventors: Ted Stephen Boda, Andrew Swerdlow
