    • Tap on a sticker or GIF to select it.
    • Send the sticker/GIF by tapping the send button.
  2. Social Media Platforms (e.g., Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok): Social media platforms often allow users to add stickers, GIFs, or other interactive elements to their posts. Here’s how you can use them on Instagram, for example:
    • Open the social media app you want to use (e.g., Instagram).
    • Create a new post or story.
    • Look for the sticker or GIF icon within the post/story creation interface.
    • Tap on the sticker or GIF icon to open the sticker/GIF picker.
