Tips

Sticker-pack images (low-res, transparent) sometimes render with a black background on iOS. Use a solid background.
WebP is allowed for stickers — see Send Sticker Message.
Animated GIFs — WhatsApp converts them to MP4 and shows them as autoplay video. Use Send Video Message for predictable behaviour.
